What We Do
We specialise in placing temporary, contract and permanent staff into two main job categories:
Corporate Services/Professional Services
Technology and Digital
Client Services
We’re flexible, we’ll tailor the service to suit the parts you like and need. We provide staff nationally to Private Sector, Not for Profit, Quasi Government and Government organisations.
We are on the AoG Talent Acquisition Services (TAS) panel and provide permanent, temporary and contracting staff to Government organisations and those on AoG.
We’re not corporate, we’re personal, and that means we are able to attract a totally different calibre of candidate and can offer you a more flexible service. We’re not mainstream, we’re specialists so you get more advice and information sharing from us.
We’re not big and slow to respond, we’re responsive and agile so our candidate database is more manageable and better utilised to search and find great people.
We take a team approach to what we do so you don’t just have an Account Manager, you have the entire team working behind the scenes to come up with solutions and find great people for you.
We offer a “not for profit” fee structure to reflect our commitment to our Community and to the organisations that work for passion and for the greater good.
Sometimes, bigger isn’t better, give our friendly, determined team a call and see the obvious differences between big and small.
We listen, we’re responsive, and we deliver.
We place candidates into Temporary, Contracting and Permanent jobs – in the Private, Not for Profit, Quasi Government and Government sectors.

Testimonials
Anita, you lead a team of experts who provide what feels like a truly personal service. I always feel well looked after and know that when I am recruiting for a role that all Forté candidates (the successful and unsuccessful ones) are well looked after by you and your team.
Amanda
Over the years I have dealt with many recruitment agencies and have never encountered such diligent workers in this space. My faith in their ability was never tested as they were steadfast in getting the job done. I had three interviews with two job offers thanks to them within a short period of time. I would strongly recommend you solicit their services and take on board some great tips they have to get you back on the work horse. Shout out to Adam, Samantha and especially Emma who is a working salt of the earth professional.
Sam
The service was - professional, accurate and timely!
I was provided with two candidates who were of high calibre and I was able to select one of them which was very pleasing as I had a very short timeframe to meet.
Huri
I have recruited my whole team through Forté – Individually my team are awesome but what I love about the process with Forté is it was never about hiring an amazing individual, it was about building a high performing team.
This is what we have done together with great results!
Amanda
Good level of contact throughout the recruitment process, grasped a good understanding of our needs and presented great candidates.
Wendy
Forté was very helpful and cost effective in our search for a superb office and event coordinator.
Graeme
Candidate Services
We know our stuff in the New Zealand job market and we’ll share our knowledge with you. Our approach is welcoming, friendly and personal, to get the best results for you and your career.
Our candidates tell us they love that we listen, we give advice, and we respond to their calls – you wouldn’t think that was too much to ask, but apparently this is what sets us apart from the big fish.
We’ll take the time to hear your story, we won’t judge, we’ll offer advice and we’ll take the time to understand what’s important to you. We each have our own story to tell. Call us to share yours and you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how we can help you in to a great job.
We work with candidates to place them into Temporary, Contracting and Permanent jobs – in the Private, Not for Profit, Quasi Government and Government sectors.

Testimonials
I feel you described the job well! I knew exactly what I was getting myself into and felt well prepared for my interview as well as my first day. Thank you for checking in, I really appreciate all the communication I have had with Forté Recruitment. You guys have all been truly amazing, could not have landed this job without all your support and guidance!
Jessica
When I was made redundant I registered with several agencies, but only Forté kept in touch regularly, including during each temp assignment I was on. Every person I dealt with in the office was both friendly and professional. I have had no problems whatsoever in the past nearly two years with Forté - and they found me permanent employment!
I have recommended Forté to several people who have reported back to me that they found the staff there helpful, friendly, professional and welcoming, too. I recommend Forté 100%.
Heather
Just a quick thank you for getting to know me today. This was a whole new experience for me, other country, other city, other people, first time on the train, first time in town...and then I got lost on top of everything... not even to mention the rain and wind. But... then I met nice people and at the end of the day it was actually an amazing experience. And now I am not so scared anymore.
Maria
Forté consultants keep you well informed and are really supportive. Forté found me my first full time role and made the process so easy that I went back to them when I was ready to find my next role.
Allison
The team at Forté made me feel so supported and advocated for. They found roles that aligned with my skills and interests incredibly quickly and were so pleasant to work with.
Barbara
The registration process was very thorough, the intimate nature of the sit down chats made it comfortable so that I was able to really absorb any information.
The team were professional and warm, and went the extra mile if it was needed.
Anna
I was thoroughly impressed with the support I received. I felt as though it was just as important to Forté as it was for me to find a role I was going to really enjoy. The communication was excellent.
Aryanne
As I’ve said before, I love working for you. You’ve made me always feel very safe and valued, which is what makes you unique.
Kerry
After dealing with a few agencies, Forté was the only one who really took the time to find out exactly what I was looking for. Regular phone calls and updates and advice were really appreciated.
