New Zealand Skills Connect | Full-Time | Hybrid

Are you passionate about helping internationally qualified nurses build successful careers in New Zealand? New Zealand Skills Connect is growing, and we're looking for a dedicated Student Counselor to join our Kochi team.

About Us

We empower internationally qualified nurses (IQNs) to succeed in the Current Zealand healthcare system through expert-led IQN training and OSCE preparation — fully aligned with NZ nursing standards and regulatory requirements. Our learners are globally based, and our mission is to help them transition confidently into the NZ healthcare workforce.

The Role

Based in our Kochi office with hybrid flexibility, you'll be the first point of contact for prospective and current nursing students — guiding them through program options, admission pathways, NZ student visa processes, and career planning as they work toward NZ registration.

- Provide ongoing pastoral support throughout the student journey

What We're Looking For

✅ Tertiary qualification in counseling, education, psychology, social work, or a related field

✅ Demonstrated experience in student or career counseling

✅ Strong communication and customer service skills — empathetic, professional, and culturally sensitive

✅ Comfortable working with international learners across digital platforms

✅ Experience in healthcare or nursing education is highly beneficial

✅ Proficient with CRM/student management systems and online communication tools
