The Little Miracles Trust is New Zealand's national charity supporting families with babies in neonatal intensive or special care, the transition home and onwards. This role supports our National Service Delivery Manager in ensuring that the Little Miracles Trust provides consistent, professional, high-quality onsite support to whānau of premature and sick full-term babies as they make their journey through the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), the transition home and onward.
This part-time role (20-24 hours per week - negotiable) is Auckland-based and is responsible for our teams who are providing an excellent service in Auckland and Middlemore Hospital NICUs.
In addition, the Service Delivery Team Leader has a crucial national role supporting our Service Delivery Team. They work closely with our National Service Delivery Manager to develop and deliver training, recruitment and communication that ensures an engaged, well-informed and high performing team who are empowered to deliver outstanding service to neonatal whānau across Aotearoa.
You will be empathetic, resilient and a skilled problem-solver with team leader experience in a health or community-focused not-for-profit setting. Strong affinity for the mahi of the Little Miracles Trust is crucial. Lived experience of a NICU or SCBU journey is valuable, but not essential.

The Trust works to provide and coordinate support to the whānau of premature and sick full-term babies, as they make their journeys through neonatal intensive care, the transition home, and onwards.
This is done in many ways: the provision of Care Packs on entry to a unit; morning teas to bring whānau and experts together; equipment for families to use in the units; post-discharge playgroups and coffee mornings.
We currently have team members in Auckland, Middlemore, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin with a constant drive to expand into all areas. Most of our team members have first-hand experience of time in a NICU or SCBU. So we know exactly what it’s like – and just how to help.
