Our Strategy & Investment team plays a vital role in shaping our Te Whatu Ora strategies for Data and Digital. We work closely with our partners to create and maintain our strategy and roadmaps, ensuring that our priorities are met, and the vision comes to life.
Our focus is on providing leadership, managing services, and overseeing architecture to align with our strategic goals. Additionally, we're excited to lead Strategic Partnership Management. This involves fostering partnerships with industry providers, managing relationships with national partners like Microsoft, AWS, and Spark, and handling Data and Digital Contract Management alongside Procurement.

Mōu | About you
As our Manager Domain Architecture, you will have the exciting opportunity to guide our Domain Architects in creating and owning architecture guidance, technical standards, and related materials for our Data & Digital domains. Your insights will be crucial in shaping solution architecture designs. Not only that, but you'll also provide valuable advice and direction regarding Data & Digital technology to support our business priorities.
One of your key responsibilities will be to lead and manage our Domain Architecture staff, ensuring their work aligns with national standards and enterprise architecture goals. By championing a strong performance culture and our company values, you'll inspire our team to reach new heights.
Your role extends to developing architecture and technology guidance, standards, and artifacts for each Data & Digital domain. Collaborating closely with our Enterprise & Solution Architects, you'll actively participate in architectural guilds and ensure that our data architecture fosters equitable outcomes.
We believe in working together harmoniously, not only within our organisation but also with external stakeholders. You'll be at the forefront of collaboration, fostering positive relationships with various entities across the health sector and government. Your passion for domain architectures and best practices will be contagious, as you advocate for their adoption and ongoing use within Te Whatu Ora and Te Aka Whai Ora. You will be a valuable resource, offering expertise on current Data & Digital trends and supporting other functions as they engage with our business units.

Te Whatu Ora supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi. In roles that don't require an in-person element, we encourage you to ‘work from where you are.' We want our national teams to be made up of diverse people from across the motu, just like our health system.
Tō mātou whakahaere ki te tika, te rerekētanga, me te whai wāhi mai |Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
Our name, Te Whatu Ora, means ‘the weaving of wellness'. Whatu is the combining together of people, resources, organisations, thoughts and actions for the betterment and wellbeing of all. Whatu is also a direct reference to the pupil of the eye, and the vision required of the new entity and system.
At Te Whatu Ora we acknowledge and respect our people's diversity and spiritual needs, ensuring a safe workplace that is a whānau orientated and supportive environment. We are working towards a system that better meets the complex demands of a growing population, addresses the persistent inequalities experienced by Māori and ensures greater access, experience and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system – Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.
