Working in New Zealand

New Zealand's economy has remained strong during the Covid-19 outbreak, unemployment is at record low levels and most regions and professions are experiencing a labour shortage. We need skilled, ready and able workers to contribute to a variety of roles across the country. 

All non-New Zealand Residents or Citizens will require a work visa to be eligible to work in New Zealand. There are various visa options available, including the Accredited Employers Work Visa. 

What you need to know: 

  1. To apply for the Accredited Employers Work Visa the employer will need to hold Accreditation 
  2. Accredited Employers will apply to Immigration for a Job Check to determine there are no suitable New Zealand Citizens or Residents available for the role they are looking to recruit for 
  3. If an Accredited Employer has passed the Job Check and offered you employment, we can help you to apply for the Migrant Check. You will need to meet health, character, and identity checks to qualify

Talk to our team of Immigration experts who can determine your eligibility for the different visa types. Providing you meet the criteria and can be successfully matched with a New Zealand employer, we can support you and your family with New Zealand Immigration Processes.
