Health Promotion

Join a kaupapa Māori organisation making a real difference.

We're hiring for two roles – both dedicated to raising awareness of gambling harm and uplifting whānau and hapori Māori.

Whether you're a creative communicator or a natural connector, there's a place for you here.

Te Rangihaeata Oranga Trust (Gambling Recovery Service Hawke’s Bay) is a kaupapa Māori organisation working to reduce gambling harm and enhance Māori wellbeing. Grounded in the values of rongomau, aroha, pono, tika and rangimārie, they deliver prevention and support services.
