Our Values | Ngā Uara

Authenticity, Always

You are encouraged to be your authentic self and to live your truth.

Do The Right Thing

Treat all people with respect and compassion by doing what's right, even when it's not easy.

Deliver With Passion

Our customers deserve our best efforts.

We believe that people are more than the jobs they've done and skills they've learned; their experiences and the path they have chosen shape who they are.

We believe that organisations are more than the products and services they provide; they are the combined skills, experience and creativity of the people who work there. Our search-based recruitment focuses on finding the right person for the right job, which allows us to create relationships that deliver success for all involved.

What stands us apart from the rest of the recruitment industry is how we use a "partner, not compete" approach, which means we see this as a long-term partnership between you and us where we essentially become an extension of your HR team.

Adopting this approach enables us to develop a thorough understanding of your culture and value proposition as an employer, which in turn means we can give prospective candidates a clear idea of the bigger picture. By positioning roles with candidates accurately, it supports ongoing retention.

Authenticity, Always

You are encouraged to be your authentic self, and live your truth.

We will embrace diversity and inclusion so we continue to adapt and evolve.

We will be a safe space for people to show vulnerability and ask for help.

We will celebrate success - big and small.

We will speak up on behalf of those who cannot.

Do The Right Thing

Treat all people with respect and compassion by doing what's right, even when it's not easy.

Always seek the win: win - operating in the best interest of our clients and candidates.

Be open, honest, and transparent in our processes and communication.

Have the tough conversations and present constructive feedback to clients and candidates in a way that helps them to grow and achieve success.

Own our mistakes, rectify them, and learn from them.

Be prepared to walk away if (and when) people aren't reciprocating these values.

Deliver With Passion

Our customers deserve our best efforts.

We are a "search first" agency, understanding that reactive advertising is ineffective and can be brand damaging.

Be flexible and agile while looking for the right solution, and remember that there is no "one size fits all" in recruitment.

Go beyond expectations by adding insight and providing "outside the box" solutions.

Hold true to the promise of finding the "right" person for the "right" role and never rush to fill the placement - it's not about the money.

Walking the Talk

We try to hold true to our values in everything we do which is why we are committed to supporting Te Puna Manawa HealthWEST as our Charity Partner and the Rainbow communities of Aotearoa New Zealand by taking the Pride Pledge.
