  • Build relationships with funders with regards to contracts, changes in contract process, and associated rate changes.
  • Develop and maintain a database of Bupa’s funding contracts and associated TLA rates across districts in which Bupa care homes operate.

What About You:

  • Hold a law degree and be admitted as a legal practitioner in New Zealand.
  • 2-4 years’ experience as a Solicitor or Legal Counsel.
  • Ideally familiar with legislative requirements of the Privacy Act and official requests for information.
  • Strong customer focus with sensitivity to the needs of the elderly.
  • Demonstrate excellent interpersonal, organisational, proactive, and multi-tasking skills.
  • Prioritise competing demands across a range of activities with attention to detail.
  • Honest, conscientious, self-motivated, with keenness for ongoing learning.
  • Commitment to ongoing quality improvement.
  • Ability to adapt to change and to work efficiently under pressure.
  • Ability to work cooperatively as part of a dynamic team.
  • Proficiency in MS Office suite, strong Word, Excel, and Outlook skills.

Extra reasons to belong:

  • Hybrid work environment with reasonable flexibility to suit your commitments.
  • Be part of a growing legal team with opportunities for progression.
  • Fully subsidised Southern Cross health insurance to our eligible permanent NZ employees and a discount on insurance cover for eligible family members.
  • Wellbeing discounts and advice, EAP counselling services, study support, and cultural leave.
  • Paid parental leave - in addition to standard parental leave, Bupa offers 12 weeks of paid leave for primary carers and 2 weeks for secondary carers.
  • Refer-a-friend programme of $750 - $2,000.
  • Professional Development – in-house and external training and development.
  • No matter who you are or where you come from, we encourage you to ‘Be You at Bupa.’
  • An accredited employer with Immigration NZ that values its diverse employees.
  • Fruit, snacks, tea, and coffee.
