Where employment is concerned, we work with you to make your life better. We work to four key values which we can both expect from each other. Together they form the acronym T.A.H.I.
- Teamwork – meaning we act with genuine intent of a desired outcome and positive action as a collective. We are all in this together and need to rely on each other.
- Accountability – means we take responsibility and ownership for our actions and efforts regardless of outcome. Positive and negative - we own what we say and do and learn from it, honestly and reliably.
- Hustle – It means that we work hard for you every single day. It means a focused purpose. It means working smarter, more efficiently and effectively for better outcomes. It means we go to the lengths to reach that outcome that other people won't, and we do this with a sense of joy, pride, and purpose, because we love it.
- Impact – means we influence and deliver positive change for customers and industry. It means we can describe what differentiates us and they will notice that difference. It’s the evidence and value of a positive outcome. It’s the outcome of having a positive impact through delivery of our services.
These values ensure we work side by side with our clients and candidates delivering positive outcomes to grow our people and New Zealand industry
