Contracting – The Workforce of the Future

At Emergent we specialise in sourcing and supplying exceptional talent through contracting of executives, management and specialised roles. We also fill fixed-term and permanent roles. 

In a market that is constantly changing, contracting offers significant advantages to both the individual and the organisation. Emergent recognised early on how vitally important contracting would become in this changing market, established in 2002, Emergent is the most prominent contracting talent partner in Auckland. We successfully provide contracting and fixed-term executive, management and specialised resources to New Zealand’s leading commercial organisations.

We provide contractors as an extension to a client’s resources to handle those things that they are constrained to do themselves because of capacity or expertise. Our clients can immediately engage superior talent when they need it, for as long as they need it.

Our extensive experience helps you define the scope, content, expectations and estimated length of your assignment requirement. We have assembled a team of contracting professionals with a refreshing approach and a portable mindset to meet your needs. We know the questions to ask to understand exactly what you want.

We can assist you with the staffing changes that all companies experience without the high cost and emotions associated with permanent recruitment.

Most agencies wait for candidates to find them. We don’t wait. We are always out in the market, networking and developing long-term relationships with the best people in their fields. This approach means both candidates and clients can trust us to represent their best interests. We are also fortunate to have regular candidate referrals from other senior search agencies.

Our staff are connectors – it is at the very core of what we do. We make it our business to get to know our clients and our contractors and we work in modern and dynamic ways to  stay ahead of the market and deliver exceptional results at pace.
