Chief Financial Officer Opportunity at Nurse Maude

17 April 2026

Nurse Maude is seeking an exceptional Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to join our Executive Management Team, based in Christchurch.


This is a rare opportunity to bring strategic financial leadership to a values-driven, not-for-profit organisation. Partnering closely with the Chief Executive and Board, the CFO will play a key role in shaping the future of community-based healthcare across Aotearoa Te Waipounamu.


With responsibility spanning both the Nurse Maude Association (Operational activities) and Nurse Maude Foundation (philanthropy), this role operates at meaningful scale - supporting over $110 million in annual cashflow, a $70 million balance sheet, and a dedicated Finance & Assurance team. The CFO will lead financial strategy, funding approaches, investment decisions, and governance frameworks that ensure long-term sustainability and impact.


We are looking for a seasoned financial leader who combines strong commercial acumen with a genuine commitment to purpose. This includes a deep understanding of financial management, experience operating in complex or government-funded environments, and the ability to lead high-performing teams. A strong alignment with Nurse Maude’s mission, values, and commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi is essential.


For a confidential discussion, please contact Andrea Bankier at Sheffield on +64 27 447 8102 or andrea.bankier@sheffield.co.nz.

Applications close 10 May 2026.
