I have participated in two recruitment interviews at Te Kotuku Ki Te Rangi, and I found the process to be very professional. The CEO demonstrated not only a thoughtful and humanized approach to the questions but also provided insightful and practical advice during the discussion. More...

I enjoyed working with Bobby who handled my HR queries and application. He is very friendly and made the process comfortable and easy. My only feedback is being more responsive in a timely manner. However, that was easy to overlook when given good news. More...

The recruitment process was good but not flawless. The initial process applying was great emails explained what i had to do and what benefits i had available. The training process was a bit cayotic, i didnt get fully informed of my restrictions and risks in my position. Currently im almost fully understand what i need to do in my role. Thank you for the opportunity to work. More...

What do you love most about your job?
For me, it has always been about the people.
I enjoy working with business owners and leaders to solve people problems that can otherwise take up a lot of their time and energy. Sometimes that is helping them through a difficult employment matter. Other times it is finding the right person for their team, improving an HR process or simply making sure payroll runs as it should.
I also enjoy seeing our own team grow and the relationships we build with our clients.
Some of our best client relationships have developed because we have become part of how their organisation operates rather than simply being an external provider they contact when something goes wrong.
That is what I enjoy most about what we do at Konnect Koncepts. We work alongside our clients and help them look after their people and their business.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started Konnect Koncepts in 2015 because I could see that many small and medium-sized businesses needed good HR and recruitment support but couldn't justify employing their own internal team.
I also believed there was a different way to provide that support.
I wanted to build a business where clients could access experienced people when they needed them, receive practical advice and know the people supporting them actually understood their organisation.
That idea has grown considerably since then.
Today, Konnect Koncepts provides HR, Recruitment and Payroll services, either individually or together as an outsourced people solution.
What hasn't changed is why we exist. We want businesses to have access to the people support they need without having to build every capability internally.
Why should our clients choose you?
Konnect Koncepts isn't just there to provide a document, process a payroll or fill a vacancy. We work as an extension of your business.
Our approach is built around PEOPLE | PROCESS | PARTNERSHIP.
People
You work with real HR, Recruitment and Payroll professionals who take the time to understand your organisation, your managers and your people.
Process
We help put practical processes, documentation and systems around your people function. That can range from employment documentation and payroll through to recruitment, employee relations and organisational change.
Partnership
You can use us for a one-off project, ongoing support or outsource HR, Recruitment and Payroll together. As your needs change, the support we provide can change with you.
We also don't believe every client needs the same solution. A business with eight employees has different needs from an organisation with 80 or 200.
The first thing we do is understand what you need. Then we work out the right way to support you.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes. We support clients throughout New Zealand and much of our HR, Recruitment and Payroll work can be delivered remotely.
Our team uses Microsoft Teams, Monday.com and secure cloud-based systems to communicate, manage work and maintain regular contact with our clients.
Remote doesn't mean disconnected.
Depending on the engagement and your location, our team can also work onsite, attend meetings and hui, support interviews or employment processes in person, and provide a combination of onsite and remote support.
Some of our ongoing HR plans include allocated onsite support, while other clients prefer to work with us completely remotely.
We agree how we will work together at the start of the engagement so you know who is supporting you, how to contact us and what to expect.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Our systems and ways of working allow us to provide HR, Recruitment and Payroll services remotely when required.
Where we work onsite with a client, our team follows the health, safety and workplace requirements applying at that location.
This gives our clients the flexibility to move between remote and onsite support when circumstances require it, without disrupting the service we provide.
Outsourced HR Services | KonnectHR
Running a business means managing people, and sometimes you need experienced HR support without employing an internal HR team.
Konnect Koncepts provides outsourced HR support to businesses and organisations across New Zealand. We can become your ongoing HR partner or step in when you need help with a specific people matter.
Our support includes employment agreements and HR documentation, policies and procedures, employee relations, performance and disciplinary matters, restructures and change processes, onboarding and offboarding, remuneration reviews, HR compliance and day-to-day advice for managers.
Our HR plans provide a set level of support each month, with options designed around the size and needs of your organisation. We can work remotely, onsite or through a combination of both.
Already have some HR capability internally? That’s fine too. We can work alongside your managers, leadership team or existing people function where extra capacity or specialist support is needed.
The first step is a conversation about your organisation, your people and what you need. We’ll then recommend the most suitable way for us to support you.
PEOPLE | PROCESS | PARTNERSHIP
Outsourced Recruitment | KonnectRECRUIT
Recruitment takes time, and finding the right person involves much more than placing an advert and reviewing CVs.
KonnectRECRUIT provides end-to-end recruitment support for businesses and organisations across New Zealand.
We can manage the complete recruitment process, including position descriptions, candidate profiles, advertising, sourcing, application management, screening, shortlisting, interviews, reference checking, offers and onboarding.
Need help with only part of the process? We can do that too.
Our recruitment team works as an extension of your organisation. We take the time to understand the role, your workplace and what a successful appointment looks like before going to market.
For organisations recruiting several positions, we can also develop recruitment campaigns and processes that make it easier to manage multiple vacancies while maintaining a consistent candidate experience.
If you already have a candidate in mind, talk to us. We can manage the remaining recruitment and appointment process without treating it as a full candidate search.
Whether you are making one appointment or building a team, the first step is understanding what you need.
Outsourced Payroll | KonnectPAY
Payroll needs to be accurate, on time and properly managed every pay cycle.
KonnectPAY provides outsourced payroll services for New Zealand businesses that want payroll managed without relying on an internal payroll resource.
We manage regular payroll processing along with new starters, employee changes, deductions, leave, KiwiSaver, terminations, payroll reporting and other payroll administration.
Our payroll processes include checks and client approval before payroll is finalised, providing clear oversight while we manage the processing.
We can support businesses with only a few employees through to organisations with larger and more complex workforces.
Because Konnect Koncepts also provides HR services, our payroll team can work alongside our HR team when employment changes affect payroll. This reduces the disconnect that can occur when HR and payroll are managed separately.
You retain visibility and approval. We manage the processing, administration and regular payroll requirements.
Talk to us about your current payroll, employee numbers, pay frequency and payroll system, and we can determine the right support for your business.
HR Projects & Workplace Support
Sometimes you don't need ongoing outsourced HR. You just need experienced support to deal with a specific issue, project or change within your organisation.
Konnect Koncepts provides project-based HR support across New Zealand, working alongside business owners, managers, boards and leadership teams.
We can assist with restructures and organisational change, employment relations, performance and disciplinary matters, workplace investigations, HR documentation and policies, workforce planning, organisational design, HR reviews and other people-related projects.
We can also review your current HR practices and identify where processes, documentation or systems need strengthening.
Every engagement starts with understanding the issue, the outcome you are trying to achieve and the level of support you need. We can then agree the scope, timeframe and cost before work begins.
Where employment processes are involved, we focus on practical processes that are fair, well documented and consistent with New Zealand employment requirements.
You don't need to sign up for ongoing HR support to work with us. If you have a specific people issue or project, talk to us about what is happening and we can determine how we can help.
