Let’s be direct. The market back in New Zealand has been tough, and we know your billing numbers are down. You’re riding the back of a recession, and it’s a hard slog. But here’s the good news: all that work you’ve done building business development skills during a downturn? That’s exactly what makes you a top-tier candidate in the Australian market right now.
We’re Connecting Recruiters, and this is what we do: we help high-quality recruiters like you make the move effortless.
Why Australia is the Answer for Kiwi Recruiters
Your skillset is not just transferable; it’s in such high demand here that your transition will be incredibly easy.
- Career Opportunities and Salaries: The Australian economy is stronger, and you’ll find greater earning potential, particularly around base salaries and highly attractive commission structures.
- Lifestyle Upgrade: You get access to living in a vibrant, new country. The lifestyle is a huge draw, and it’s a work visa that leads to permanent residency for our NZ citizens.
- Easy Cultural Fit: The work you do is mirrored exactly here. You can come over, transfer all your skills, and really heighten your career.
Your Big Move: Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane?
You don’t have to decide which Australian city to live in alone—we can help you match your goals to the perfect market. Remember, we only deal with the East Coast: Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane.
- Melbourne (The Culture Capital): A deep, established market known for specialist recruitment and a fantastic work-life balance.
- Sydney (The Financial Fast-Lane): Higher base salaries, a fast-paced environment, and the epicentre for finance and tech recruitment.
- Brisbane (The Growth Engine): Often seen as the lower-cost, high-growth opportunity, especially with the Olympics driving massive infrastructure and market expansion.
Your Practical Steps to an Aussie Rec to Rec Role
The biggest hurdle for many Kiwi recruiters is how to explain the hard market conditions back home. You need a trusted Rec to Rec agency who can really explain your situation to agencies here. That’s where Connecting Recruiters comes in.
- Job Search & Networking: Focus on connecting with a specialist Rec to Rec Australia consultant (that’s us!). We have the industry knowledge to enhance your experience.
- Visa Info: As a Kiwi, your work rights are better than most. However, you still need to know the pathways to permanent work and residency. We can help you with this.
- Relocation Tips: We look beyond the job—we’ll help you understand the market and smooth out the relocation process.
