• Warm client base to grow
• Access to All of Government sector
• High commission via fair, sustainable fees
• Fully remote – work where and how you perform best

The Market Is Changing. So Are We.

Traditional high-cost recruitment models are losing ground. Clients - both public and private sector - want smarter, more cost-effective, collaborative solutions.

That’s where we sit.

We operate as a senior, highly experienced collective (15-40+ years each), delivering flexible recruitment solutions without the overheads of big agency structures. Our model is modern, lean, relationship-led and commercially fair - for clients and for you.

TalentNow! pioneered the remote recruitment model 19 years ago - long before WFH became mainstream. We operate nationally from home offices, balancing lifestyle with performance, and supporting each other as experienced professionals.

Through our joint ownership of a mandated All of Government services provider, we have the platform and access to operate across the full public and private sector landscape.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced IT/Digital/AI Recruiter with both contract and permanent experience to build and grow within:

• Central and wider Government
• Corporate and private sector
• Existing and developing client relationships

You’ll have the autonomy to run your portfolio your way - backed by credibility, brand, simple systems, and experienced peers.

This suits someone who:

• Has worked in an agency/consultancy environment
• Is confident in business development
• May have considered going out alone - but wants collaboration, infrastructure and support

It’s the best of both worlds, entrepreneurial freedom without franchise-style control or hidden costs.

About You

You are a hands-on external recruiter, not an internal HR generalist.

You’ll likely have:

• 5+ years' recruitment experience (IT & Digital essential)
• Strong BD capability and no reluctance to pick up the phone
• The discipline and drive to work independently
• Financial stability to build momentum
• A professional home office setup
• A balanced, self-managed approach to work and life

Action:

You can submit an application by clicking on Apply, but I'd prefer a call initially to chat. Contact Principal Director Kevin Chappell on 0295-974739, or email kevin@talentnow.co.nz.
