Carla Smith

Kia ora, I’m Carla

 

I've been with Prospero since 2019 and currently lead our Health & Medical Division here in Aotearoa. I have over 10 years of recruitment experience across the education, health, and medical sectors, and have spent the majority of my time helping healthcare professionals navigate career opportunities throughout New Zealand.

These days, I focus on permanent, fixed-term, and locum opportunities across medical, allied health, and technical healthcare roles. I genuinely love what I do and am passionate about building strong, honest relationships with both candidates and clients. For candidates, that means providing transparent advice, market insight, and long-term career support. For employers, it means partnering closely to understand their workforce needs and connecting them with high-quality healthcare professionals who will make a lasting impact on their service.

Whether you're actively looking for a new role, seeking locum opportunities, or looking to grow your team, I'd love to connect.
