New Zealand is currently operating under a traffic light system - the country is operating under the red setting. New Zealand’s borders are closed to almost all travellers. Citizens, permanent residents, and some visa holders are allowed to return but depending on where they arrive from, must quarantine for ten days on arrival. Two-way quarantine-free flights (also known as green flights) between New Zealand and Australia are suspended. Travel within New Zealand is easy. You can travel between areas freely, provided you have a valid vaccine passport. Use of the Covid-19 scanner app or singing in at businesses is mandatory. Face masks are mandatory on public transport and must be worn when visiting essential services. They are encouraged at other times outside of your home. If you’re an international doctor considering work in New Zealand, you can still apply. Moving here takes six months to one year, so it’s best to plan ahead. See our International page for more information.

Frequently asked questions about Specialist Consultant Medical Oncology jobs in New Zealand

Common questions from doctors searching for Specialist Consultant Medical Oncology roles in New Zealand.

Talk with a Solutions Specialist

Can I work in New Zealand?

MCNZ (Medical Council of New Zealand) registered doctors have a plethora of opportunities available for them to find both permanent and locum positions. If you are an Australian-trained doctor, you can work in New Zealand by obtaining MCNZ registration, and we are here to support you throughout this process. If you're looking for New Zealand jobs for foreign doctors who obtained their primary medical degree from medical schools overseas, it is beneficial to have at least 12 months of experience in a comparable health system such as the UK or Ireland. Working in New Zealand as an internationally trained doctor involves navigating certain pathways and considering specific restrictions. However, rest assured that we are well-versed in these processes and can guide you accordingly. Our goal is to simplify the process and help you embark on a successful medical career in beautiful New Zealand.
