FRIDAY ▪︎ RECRUITMENT ▪︎ INSPO
“Basically, don’t hide in your office”

Loved this story on Monday about Hokitika Primary School students helping choose their next principal.

And they know what they want! Not just a degree and experience, but someone who’s visible, fun and actually wants to hang with them.

A few of their requirements:
🔸 Strict (but not too strict)
🔹 Sporty (play with us!)
🔸 Does magic
🔹 And not on their laptop all day
🔸 Funny (good jokes please!)
😻 Calm (even when it's crazy)

It’s a good reminder that a JD only tells part of the story. Personality, relationships and how someone fits into a team matter just as much.

And for businesses, getting your team involved in recruitment can be a great way to work out what you really need in your next hire. The people doing the job often have the best insights.

📷 Dad snapped my Mum in front of Hokitika's famous driftwood welcome sign back in March.

✨ And speaking of creativity, the inaugural Festival of Design Aotearoa kicks off today! 10 days, 50+ events & plenty of free ones to enjoy.

DO ▪︎ YOUR ▪︎ HOMEWORK
One of the easiest ways to make your cover letter stand out? Include something about the company you’re applying to.

It sounds simple, but it's something we often see missed.

A few sentences showing you’ve taken the time to find out who the business is, what they do or why the role interests you can make a real difference.

🔸 Check out their website and socials
🔹 Mention what genuinely interests you
🔸 Explain why you’d like to join their team

Something like "I am excited to apply for the Business Support role at Google. I’m particularly attracted to Google’s mission to make information universally accessible and useful, and its focus on using technology to help people and businesses work smarter. I’d love to put my administration skills to use in a company that embraces innovation."

✨ Your CV shows what you can do. Your cover letter explains why you want the job and why they should pick YOU!

And if you’re applying for multiple jobs? Take the time to tailor each cover letter. A generic one can make it look like you’re applying for any old job.

A little research goes a long way!

What’s involved?
🔸 Weekly payroll (iPayroll)
🔹 AP, AR, invoicing and bank recs (Xero)
🔸 Financial reporting and board support
🔹 General office administration
🔸 Raceday prep - tickets & event coordination

🎉 Congratulations to Melanie Elgar, (part-time, permanent) Administrator at WISE Charitable Trust based at Community House Whanganui.

Melanie brings a great mix of administration, customer service and coordination experience, most recently with the Whanganui Toy Library and local government.

🏡 Headquartered in Waitara, WISE works to improve the wellbeing of whānau in our community, including through its Healthy Homes Initiative, helping people access warmer, drier and healthier homes.

Melanie was drawn to the role because it combines the administration work she enjoys with the opportunity to contribute to an organisation making a meaningful difference every day.

With her people skills and practical approach, Melanie is a great addition to Chris and the wider team.

🪻 Sharing the local love on Ridgway with a voucher for Honest Kitchen and a cheery spring plant from the Whanganui River Markets.

BACK ▪︎ INTO ▪︎ IT
Sooo good being a tourist in your own country! We loved our Rotorua adventure (and 🏖 day at the Mount) - Ultimate Canopy Tour with 1.2kms of ziplines high above beautiful native forest, luge (of course!), girls the crazy Zorb and finished off by biting the dust at the world's only geothermal parkrun.

✨️ With only 10 and a bit weeks until Christmas, the rest of 2026 is going to fly by, so if you're needing a hand to find the right person, or thinking about your next career move, we would love to connect.
