"We have had great feedback from the 5 managers Broni supports including comments such as; "...she has changed my life!" and "...she allows me to focus on the priorities". Broni hit the ground running on day one, immediately running offsites, inductions and various other tasks. Broni is always positive and helpful and we consider ourselves lucky to have her."
Congratulations to Orla Griffin, Wellington's first Temp of the Month.
This is not a job advertisement - this is a national crisis! Where are the Credit Controllers of New Zealand?
Wellington had a slow start to August but towards the end of the month there was an increase in the number of permanent roles. A pleasing change in that there were two sets of bulk assignment, which is less common in the Wellington market.
Over all August was a strong month for Velocity despite an obvious reduction in permanent positions. The temp market has been steady with a definite increase in short term temp assignments due to sick leave or extended holidays. There has also been a huge number of our current temps being offered fixed term or perm roles within companies, which reflects the high calibre of people Velocity have out there temping.
Candidates in all disciplines; permanent, contract and temporary, are moving extremely quickly and clients have had to move in order to secure quality talent for their teams. To their credit many clients have adapted, often changing their normal processes in order to secure the candidates they want. This has been a learning curve for all of us, consultants, candidates and clients alike. Naturally, the good news is that this clearly tells us that the market is continuing to move forward in a positive way.
Congratulations to Gaye Oldham, our first Velocity Temp of the Month. Gaye has worked exceptionally hard throughout her assignment with Securefuture (part of the Fletcher Group). She has gone above and beyond the call of duty and worked a serious amount of overtime to get the job done! We are very proud to call Gaye one of Velocity’s temps.
