Built for NZ Privacy Act compliance
Candidate documents are encrypted at rest and in transit. You access only the details relevant to your hiring decision — nothing more.
Filters that actually mean something
Filter by trade, location, availability, and work rights type. Every result is genuinely eligible — no mixed pools, no noise.
Know who you're hiring from
Every job listing shows the employer's business type. Optionally verify your NZBN for a green-tick badge that signals legitimacy to candidates.
