Extended team for New Zealand
Trained engineers, marketers, accountants and operations staff who work only for your business. We are your extended team offshore. You keep control and the final say.
40% to 65% less than hiring locally.
Compared with typical published New Zealand pay at the same level of experience, plus the employer KiwiSaver contribution. Your saving depends on the role and seniority.
The problems we solve
Where this usually starts
- Every job ad brings fewer good applicants and a higher salary ask
- Good engineers are few, and larger companies can outbid you for them
- A new hire takes months to find, and a good one can leave for Australia
- KiwiSaver, recruiter fees, equipment and desk space all sit on top of the salary
- Your office is closed for 12 public holidays, while the work keeps coming in
- Owners end up doing the books or the marketing themselves at night

- Works through New Zealand public holidays, including Christmas
- You direct the work and keep the final say
The same work. The difference stays with you.
This is not about being the cheapest option. Two labour markets pay very differently for the same skill, and you can use that gap.
A trained person with us works more hours in a year than a local hire, because the New Zealand holiday calendar does not stop them. They join your meetings, use your software and follow your process.
You decide what they do and you check what they produce. We carry the employment, the payroll and the compliance.

Frequently asked
Who is in charge of the work?
You are. You set the priorities, review the work and make the final decision. We are your extended arm, and we do not run your business for you.
Do they work for other clients?
No. Each person works only on your business and learns how you do things.
What hours do they work?
9 hours a day, 5 days a week, with the hours agreed with you up front so they overlap with your day. They also work through New Zealand public holidays, including Christmas.
What if someone is not the right fit?
We replace them. You interview and choose every person, and you can ask for a change at any time.
Who owns the work and the code?
You do. Every contract assigns intellectual property to you and carries confidentiality terms.
Do we need a company overseas?
No. You stay in New Zealand and work with your team member directly. We carry the employment, the payroll and the compliance.
Tell us what is giving you headaches. If we are not the right people, we will try our best to find who is, and connect you to them.
Got it.
We will come back to you within one business day.
