Are you a skilled Project Manager with experience setting up new sites? We’re working with a leading private healthcare provider preparing to open a brand-new satellite facility on Auckland’s North Shore and they need a capable hand to bring it all together.

This is your chance to take the lead on a high-impact project, helping launch a critical new site that will make a real difference in patients’ lives.

About the Role

As the Project Manager, you'll play a central role in the operational set-up of the new site. From logistics to leadership to stakeholder engagement, you’ll help ensure a smooth and successful facility launch—on time and on budget.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organised, proactive, and comfortable managing staff, juggling multiple priorities, and working cross-functionally with key healthcare and executive stakeholders.

This is a 4 month contract starting in June and there is flexibility for this to be part time or full time hours!

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and coordinate all aspects of the site launch, including logistics, planning, and team coordination
  • Collaborate with the Operations Manager to manage timelines, budgets, and workstreams aligned with the master project roadmap
  • Oversee the implementation of a refreshed brand identity and all launch-related marketing initiatives
  • Coordinate stakeholder communication materials and execute launch events and engagement activities
  • Ensure equipment, systems, and facilities are operational and ready for go-live
  • Track progress, manage risks, and communicate updates across stakeholders
  • Support with procurement, installation, training coordination, and operational readiness

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven project management experience—ideally with site launches or facility openings
  • Experience leading teams and coordinating across departments
  • Strong organisational skills with sharp attention to timelines and detail
  • Marketing or event launch experience is highly advantageous
  • Familiarity with the NZ healthcare sector and an understanding of clinical environments is advantageous but those without this will still be considered
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • A solution-focused, calm-under-pressure mindset
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively

Bonus points if you have a formal project management qualification (e.g. PRINCE2, PMP).
