Southern Cross Health Insurance is shaping a healthier Aotearoa New Zealand. Our purpose is simple: empowering our members to live well for longer. We're here to give peace of mind through timely access to quality care, inspire healthier living, and lead positive change across the health system. As a New Zealand-owned, member-based organisation, we're building a future where wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do -- delivering exceptional value for our members and creating an environment where our people thrive.
Now is an exciting time to join us. You'll be part of a high-performing, values-driven team where people are at the heart of everything we do -- and in return for your talent, you'll have the opportunity to grow, make an impact, and be proud of the difference your work makes.
If you have a background in claims assurance, claims integrity, health audit or quality assurance – or experience investigating fraud, abuse, waste and error in a health or insurance setting – this new role could be a great fit.
Our Affiliated Provider (AP) programme gives healthcare providers a lot of agency to claim on behalf of our members. That low-friction approach works well for members, and relies on providers clearly understanding, and actively managing to, the terms of their AP agreement. This role helps make sure those terms are well understood and part of everyday practice.
As one of two new Provider Assurance Specialists in our Healthcare Partnerships team, you’ll work with a wide range of providers, from large groups to individual specialists, helping set clear expectations and understand how providers are set up to meet them.
Our provider onboarding process is going through an uplift along with increased focus on assurance and investigation activities – so you’ll have the opportunity to help shape the frameworks and process guides as they take form.
Ngākau nui. Āhurutanga. Tikanga.
Join a proud diverse team, that’s always there, always real, always true. If you thrive in a caring, honest and open culture, we think you’ll love working with us.
We know that it is our team’s culture and wellbeing that will drive us forward. That’s why we prioritise not only professional development opportunities but opportunities to thrive personally, too. We offer exceptional work/life balance and our employees are encouraged to — and rewarded for — living well.
Based at our Auckland office Te Kupenga, you’ll be supported to continually learn and grow your skills, share knowledge and ideas, and be part of a values-based culture where people are at its heart. Southern Cross employee benefits include:
That’s not all. Need more time to study, volunteer or support your whānau? You’ll have the opportunity to purchase flexi leave. Each year, you’ll also get to take part in a volunteer day, to contribute to a cause or community with your team.
This role is Auckland-based. Some travel to meet providers may be required. While we appreciate interest from candidates in other locations, we’ll manage remote working options on a case-by-case basis for the right candidate. Have questions?

We are proud to have taken the Pride Pledge, reflecting our commitment to inclusion and belonging.

If you share our commitment and passion, we'd love to hear from you.
More Kiwis are with us because we're with them.
