Recruitment
Recruitment that designs the role — then finds the right person for it.
247 Staff runs employer-paid permanent recruitment built on evidence-led matching, with two-thirds of the fee earned only when people stay to six and twelve months. Temporary and triangular options are available where lawfully structured.
How our recruitment is different
We don't stop at a shortlist. We help design the role, decide the right workforce, and support the placement well past day one.
Employer-paid
Employers pay recruitment costs. Candidates are never charged for jobs, placement access or recruitment costs.
Evidence-led matching
Structured WorkFit criteria and role-relevant evidence — humans make every employment decision.
Workforce choice
We help you decide whether the work needs a human, an AI agent or a blended team.
Local and international
Recruit locally where required, with ethical international pathways where genuinely needed.
Onboarding included
Employment documentation and a structured start, not a handover and goodbye.
Retention-aligned
7.5% total in three equal 2.5% instalments — at commencement, six months and twelve months.
Role Launch
The Role Launch fee covers professional role design and campaign preparation — the groundwork that makes a search succeed.
Role-discovery consultation
A structured conversation to understand the work, the team and the outcome you need.
Outcome & capability design
We define what success looks like and the capabilities the role genuinely requires.
Candidate-focused advertisement
A clear, honest advertisement written to attract the right people, not just clicks.
Market positioning
Where and how the role is positioned for the New Zealand talent market.
Screening plan
A consistent, criteria-based screening approach applied to every applicant.
WorkFit matching plan
Our Person – Role – Tools framework applied to shortlist on evidence.
Employer dashboard access
Track the search, review consented candidates and record decisions in one place.
