Whether you need temporary staff to support a project or a permanent employee to strengthen your team, Tradestaff provides practical recruitment solutions tailored to your business
Temporary Staffing Solutions
Flexible Workforce Support When You Need It
Labour demands can change quickly. Temporary staffing provides the flexibility to scale your workforce up or down as workloads, projects and seasonal demands fluctuate.

Tradestaff supplies temporary workers across a wide range of trades and industrial disciplines, including:
Construction
Civil Construction
Engineering
Manufacturing and Processing
Warehousing and Logistics
Traffic Management and Roading
General Labouring
Mechanical
Ready to Start Work
Before arriving on site, Tradestaff workers complete our onboarding and Health & Safety processes, helping them come to work prepared and ready to contribute. We conduct robust screening calls, ID and qualification verifications, reference checks, and face to face interviews.
We can also facilitate drug and alcohol screens and criminal record checks; just let us know your site requirements.
Permanent Staffing Solutions
Finding the Right Long-Term Fit
Recruiting the right permanent employee takes time and expertise.
Our experienced recruitment specialists work closely with you to understand the role, required skills, workplace culture and long-term objectives of your business.

Our permanent recruitment process can include:

Health & Safety
A Shared Commitment to Safe Workplaces
Health & Safety is a core part of how we operate.
We work closely with both workers and clients to promote safe work practices and support compliance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA).
Our approach focuses on consultation, cooperation and communication to ensure workers understand their responsibilities and clients have confidence that safety expectations are being met.
Regular communication with workers and clients helps us identify risks early and support positive safety outcomes across all placements.
PPE and Site Readiness
We want workers to arrive on site ready to work safely and productively from day one.
Tradestaff provides appropriate safety personal protective equipment (PPE) where required and ensures workers receive relevant information about their role before starting work.
We also expect all workers to complete site-specific inductions and follow workplace safety procedures established by our clients.
We'll discuss Specialist Safety Gear with you on a case by case basis.
Cool and Easy Timesheets and Payroll
Simple Administration, Less Paperwork
Using temporary staff shouldn't create additional administration.
Tradestaff handles payroll, PAYE, ACC, Holiday Pay, Sick Leave entitlements and KiwiSaver obligations for temporary workers, reducing the administrative burden on your team.
Our secure online timesheet system makes it easy to submit and approve hours, while weekly invoicing provides a straightforward and transparent process.
This means less time spent managing paperwork and more time focused on running your business.

With branches nationwide and deep connections across New Zealand's trades and industrial sectors, Tradestaff combines local market knowledge with national capability.
