Etta Images fundraising project for Nurse Maude Hospice.

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.
