WHY CHOOSE FLUID TO MANAGE YOUR JOB SEARCH

OUR APPROACH TO ENHANCING CAREERS

A Partner you can Trust

Looking for your next role, and going through an interview process can feel like a daunting prospect, we have been there too, and we get it.

We approach every part of a recruitment process with integrity and care. Every person within Fluid is employed because they share our core values; expertise, integrity and commitment.

Relationships not Transactions

We aim to work with candidates throughout their career from entry through to exit from the industry.

Many of our current clients are ex-candidates whom we have worked with in the past, which demonstrates the trust and confidence they have in our service and process.

Genuine Market Expertise

Unlike generalist agencies, here at Fluid all our consultants specialise solely in their own segmented sectors of the market.

This dedicated approach to industry verticals and regional markets enables us to hone our skills and build comprehensive market insight.

Industry Connections

Sometimes it is all about getting a candidate in front of the right person in an organisation. 

Over the past twelve years we have developed relationships with some of New Zealand's leading commercial organisations and professional services firms, meaning we know who to talk to and how to get results where others cannot.

Getting to Know You

Our consultants take the time to get to know you, what makes you tick, and what you are wanting to achieve.

This helps us to be targeted in delivering only the most relevant and exciting opportunities, specific to your key requirements.

Post Placement Care

We want every interaction we have to be a positive one that adds genuine value to your career.

That's why our job doesn't just stop when you sign the contract. We'll be there every step of the way as you get settled into your new role to ensure that your integration is successful.

Hear what candidates say
about us.

Honest candidate feedback is important to us, so that we can continue to improve and innovate our service offering.

I made the move from Auckland to Christchurch so I knew nothing about the job market. Eden found me a position by convincing my current job to make a position for me. He didn’t just wait for something to come up. Highly recommend.

Registered Legal Executive, South Island Law Firm

Christchurch

From the outset, Tom took the time to understand our requirements and after an extensive search, he came up with an impressive shortlist for us to discuss and debate. Tom regularly touched base to bounce ideas and check alignment with our expectations.

General Manager, Electrical Distribution Network

Caleb found me the job that excited me and fit all of my very specific requirements. To describe why Caleb is the best recruiter I have spoken with I will say, he listens, researches, and works enthusiastically to find a solution that will work.

Policy Team Leader, Local Government

Waikato

Eden was responsive and knowledgeable in terms of the market, but what really set him apart was his ability to listen to what I was looking for in a role. I never felt pressured to accept something that didn’t feel right. No hesitation to recommend Eden.

Commercial Associate, Large Full Service Firm

Christchurch

We have engaged Fluid Recruitment as our business has grown and they have consistently delivered. As we have expanded our geographical reach and opened new offices they have continued to provide exceptional talent for both planning and surveying.

Director, Multi-Disciplinary Consultancy

I highly recommend James Mason for his professional & excellent service. He showed how he cares, supports and understand jobseekers like me. He always make sure that things are on track & always gives you positive advice. Very efficient & genuine.

Payroll Manager, National Manufacturer

Hamilton

I had a very good candidate experience. Jason kept me updated at all times. They also gave me tips with regards to relocating to Dunedin and offered support if needed. Fluid Recruitment has a professional approach, very friendly staff.

HR Advisor, City Council

James was very helpful. He listened to me and understood what I was trying to achieve. He made the recruitment process easy for me. The follow-up phone calls show they care about their candidates. Highly recommended.

Commercial Analyst, Global Manufacturer

Hamilton

Tom has always been a very inquisitive recruiter! He is not your traditional “take the brief from the client and run with it” recruiter. He wants to understand the company, the culture and really invests in the company he is recruiting for.

HR Manager, Electrical Distribution Network

Eden made the process of changing jobs and moving cities easy and stress-free. At the outset, he clearly explained each step of the recruitment process and I consistently felt as though he had my best interests at heart.
