About Us & Our Counselling Programme

Laidlaw College is the largest Christian higher education college in Aotearoa New Zealand. As an interdenominational, private training establishment, we offer quality education in theology, counselling and education, with two national campuses in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland and Ōtautahi Christchurch.

Our three-year Bachelor of Counselling (BCouns) degree prepares students to become a registered counsellor with either the New Zealand Association of Counsellors or the New Zealand Christian Counsellors Association. With Christian thought and practice integrated throughout, and with a uniquely immersive mix of classroom, practicum, group and mentored learning, the BCouns is for those who want to build a career in counselling, or those who want to develop lifelong skills for working with people.

The Opportunity

This is a full-time position based at our Papanui, Christchurch campus. Travel to Auckland will be required periodically.

On a day-to-day basis, the role will involve teaching in the Counselling programme, mentoring of students and provision of leadership for group process groups. The role will report to the Head of Counselling.  We want to hear from counselling practitioners and scholars who have a vision for working with a committed team of counsellor educators. We are looking for a person who cares deeply about developing theologically reflective, ethically robust and effective counselling practitioners.  Our ideal candidate will also have a vital, mature faith in Jesus Christ, in line with Laidlaw’s Statement of Faith and teach in an inspiring and engaging manner.
