special notice

We are actively seeking all candidates, whether New Zealand Nationals or International Candidates, for employment opportunities within New Zealand.

Please note that due to travel restrictions being in place, we are actively searching for applicants who are currently in New Zealand and able to work freely, or who are looking to obtain a Work Visa to do so, to fill urgent vacancies in Nursing, Infrastructure, Construction and IT industries. Further to this, we are keen to assist New Zealand Residents and Citizens, living and working abroad, who are intending to return and are seeking permanent job roles within New Zealand.

Please note we are actively searching for Nurses who are living in New Zealand as well as internationally.

Our clients maintain that there remains a recruitment need within New Zealand for international and domestic candidates to support businesses to grow, and therefore we will be preparing clients and candidates for this period of demand. On this basis, we will still remain focused on screening candidates for future employment.

We will continue to provide 24 hours per day email, phone and virtual support.

WHO ARE WE?

Skills in Demand is a New Zealand based, Kiwi owned and operated resourcing team that specialises in matching skilled migrants from the United Kingdom, Ireland and the rest of the world to New Zealand organisations who are offering great job opportunities. Our Christchurch based team are a mix of Kiwis and Brits who have made the move themselves, so you are in safe hands!

If you are fed up reading online job advertisements that stipulate that you must have New Zealand Residency or a valid New Zealand Work Visa, or if you are a business owner or recruitment consultant who is continually frustrated to receive good overseas CV’s only to find out that the applicant is 18 months away or can’t obtain a New Zealand Work Visa, Skills in Demand is the organisation you should speak to.

Our team is passionate, professional and skilled and we pride ourselves on supporting both employers and candidates through the recruitment and relocation process. We all come from professional backgrounds, including international recruitment, corporate immigration, law and communications.

Let us take the hassle out of the application, or resourcing process for you. Over 650 great overseas candidates have done so since our establishment in 2012.

We work across a range of industries, but have high demand in the Construction and Engineering Industries. As the demand for skills increases so does our search for candidates.
