Life at Habit Health
Our values and growth enable our teams to prosper.
Habit Health began as a small Wellington-based clinic in 2002 by founders Ben (Chief Executive and Physio by trade) and Steve (National Properties and Facilities Manager). Fast forward to today and we are now a strong and talented team of approximately 750 nationwide. Our passion to optimise health for the people of Aotearoa remains a strong driver - we’re always keen for others to join our journey.
Lead with us
We want our people to grow and be industry leaders. Whatever their focus, we’re here to harness the skills and talent of our staff to benefit the clients and communities we serve.
Optimising client outcomes is important to us. We’re always looking for better ways to do things so that we are fully focused on clinical and operational excellence.
We are proud of our internally led Nga Kaihapai group, embracing Te Tiriti principles in what we do. We are also in our third year of offering a Māori and Pasifika scholarship programme, building upon the diversification and representation of Māori and Pasifika in healthcare.
