What our current employee's have to say about working at Foot Mechanics


 

"I've worked for Foot Mechanics since April 2005. Working here allows me to mould and shape the career path that I choose.

The experience gained since becoming a Foot Mechanics employee has been paramount to my continued growth as a clinician and Lead Podiatrist.

The work philosophy behind Foot Mechanics is something that I personally admire and find inspiring on a regular basis.

This is a company who is eager to listen to your ideas, can see your vision and encourage you to follow it through and finally implement it in the work place.

No other Podiatry group are able to offer me the career opportunities that Foot Mechanics can offer me right now. I have chosen to become a Lead Podiatrist specializing in biomechanics and sports medicine. As part of the employee development program there has always been support when I have asked for it and guidance when I have needed it. 

I am comfortable in the knowledge that my career path does not have to stop at a clinical level. Opportunities exist in the company to grow into different roles and to take my career to a new level.  I am currently excited by the prospects of owning my own Foot Mechanics clinic and will be working towards this.

I am proud to be helping Foot Mechanics ‘Lead Podiatry’."

"Hey my names is Leonard Merito I am now a qualified podiatrist. I graduated last December (2009) from AUT it was a very special occasion which I enjoyed thoroughly after 3 years of hard & stressful study. I was lucky enough to be offered a job with Foot Mechanics. As a new graduate I was anxious about treating patients on my own but with the help of the Foot Mechanics family I quickly found my feet.

The main reasons why I enjoy working for foot mechanics are;

  • Has a whanau/family feel
  • Clear lines of communication
  • Has great connections to other leading companies such as Adidas, Asics, New Balance and Kumfs
  • Involved in community projects
  • Supportive
  • Innovative
  • Very organised"
