Practice Manager

About the Role
We are looking for an experienced, people-focused Practice Manager to help shape the future of health care in Cromwell.

This is more than a management role - it is an opportunity to lead a dedicated team, support the smooth running of a busy medical centre, and make a meaningful difference for our community.

If you are a confident leader who thrives on variety, enjoys bringing out the best in others, and is passionate about primary care, this could be your next career move.

What You’ll Do

• Provide visible, energetic, and supportive leadership across the practice.
• Oversee day-to-day operations, including staff, workflows, systems, and service delivery.
• Work closely with clinical and administration teams to foster a positive and collaborative workplace.
• Manage budgets, claims, reporting, and other key business activities to support the financial health of the practice.
• Build and maintain a motivated, connected team culture where people feel valued and supported.
• Collaborate with South Link Health support teams, including Finance, People and Culture, IT, Marketing, and others.
• Identify opportunities for improvement through audits, reporting, and practical new ideas.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience in Practice Management (or similar).
• Strong financial skills and confidence managing budgets and reporting.
• Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining attention to detail.
• A positive, practical approach and a willingness to be hands-on when needed.
• A genuine commitment to primary care, community wellbeing, and creating a great experience for patients and staff.

About Us
Cromwell Medical Centre is home to a diverse community - both in our patients and our team. We are proud to be supported by South Link Health Services, giving you access to a nationwide network of more than 20 Practice and Business Managers who regularly connect, share ideas, and support one another.

What Success Looks Like

• An engaged, high-performing team delivering care we are proud of.
• A practice that runs smoothly, meets financial expectations, and is a positive place to work.
• Confident, visible leadership that empowers people and supports continuous improvement.

This is a chance to grow, lead, and make your mark in a community that values its health care and the people who provide it.

We are committed to an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. We celebrate diversity as a strength and warmly welcome applications from Māori, Pacific, Disability, and Rainbow communities.
