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 New 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.
What You'll Do
Conduct one-on-one counseling sessions covering course selection, career pathways, and NZ student visa options
Guide students through New Zealand student visa requirements, documentation, and application processes
Respond to inquiries via email, phone, and online platforms
Support students through enrollment in IQN and OSCE programs
Liaise with relevant NZ immigration and regulatory bodies where required
Deliver information sessions on NZ nursing pathways, visa options, and registration requirements
Provide ongoing pastoral support throughout the student journey
Collaborate with academic and administrative teams for a seamless learner experience
Maintain accurate student interaction records in our CRM/student management system
What We're Looking For
✅ Tertiary qualification in counseling, education, psychology, social work, or a related field
✅ Demonstrated experience in student or career counseling
✅ Knowledge of New Zealand student visa programs and immigration pathways — experience as a visa counselor or education agent is a strong advantage
✅ 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
✅ Self-motivated with excellent organizational and time-management skills
Why Join Us?
