Some may think that large organisations offer safety and security, but it can also mean a lot of bureaucracy and slow decision making.

We're lucky. We have the safety and security that comes from being part of the Alexander James group, but we can adapt quickly and easily because we have a flexible organisational structure and the decision-makers are in the trenches working alongside the team on a daily basis. Our innovative thinking and ability to respond to your needs quickly is something we take pride in and we've had excellent feedback from both clients and jobseekers that benefited directly from our entrepreneurial culture and willingness to try something new and different.

For example, when we worked alongside a client that had set themselves a goal of increasing diversity on a large scale with these specific objectives:

• To engage with local iwi and generate their support for a new facility being built in their area
• To target rangatahi (youth) and encourage them into work
• To increase female representation in leadership roles in this traditionally male industry

These objectives were daunting but we were determined to do our best to help our client achieve them. We knew that things can only be changed when you change the way you do things so we put our "outside the box" thinking hats on.
