Ōtaki

Role

A practice located in Ōtaki is seeking a general practitioner (GP) or nurse practitioner (NP) for a short-term role available from 1 May to 31 July 2026.

For this role, the number of sessions per week is negotiable with the practice, and there is no requirement for on-call work.

Additionally, the practice is able to assist with both vehicle and accommodation arrangements.

Location

Ōtaki is a culturally diverse town with a strong Māori influence. The population is around 8000 and the town is well resourced with shops, churches, Kōhanga Reo, Kura and Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

Ōtaki is located between the Tararua Ranges and the Tasman sea.  There are walkways through the stunning Tararua Range and Otaki Forks, where you will find picnic, swimming and camping areas. Hiking tracks range from 30 minute strolls to multi-day expeditions, with hiking huts available for a stop-over. The beach is wide and windswept – a great place for fishing or an invigorating run or walk.  The Ōtaki Golf club has a captivating 18-hole course with lush fairways, greens that won’t disappoint and panoramic views.

The Kapiti Coast offers spectacular sea vistas, glorious sunsets, untouched native forest and dramatic landscapes, and is home to the Kapiti Island nature and marine reserve.  A trip to our capital, Wellington City, will take you less than an hour’s drive.
