Terms and Conditions

WorkHere connects highly skilled people from around the world that are interested in relocating to New Zealand with employers with skills shortage roles that they’ve been unable to fill from the domestic market.

In addition to having the skills needed by New Zealand employers, candidates are required to demonstrate that they are genuinely interested in moving to New Zealand for career opportunities and that they are willing to relocate within a reasonable timeframe.

Registering with WorkHere requires candidates to create a WorkHere Profile. Candidates are required to provide accurate information including uploading a current CV/resume and they may also be invited to submit a personal video introduction at a later stage.

Candidate Profiles may be shared with Immigration New Zealand for visa reasons or otherwise.

Candidates may be contacted directly by a member of the WorkHere Talent Team about job opportunities in New Zealand that match their skills and experience. In this instance, candidates will be provided with details about the employer and job opportunity and given the option to approve or decline their WorkHere Profile information to be put forward for the role or not.

You can update your WorkHere Profile information at any time by logging into the WorkHere Platform.
