Recreate NZ facilitates Moxie Employment placements with businesses that share our values. The aim is to carefully match Moxie trainees with suitable employers and facilitate a training period that results in permanent, part time employment.

Moxie Employment achieves success because trainees already participate in other Recreate NZ programmes, allowing facilitators to deeply understand individuals—including their strengths and challenges—and can confidently advocate to employers. In some instances, we may suggest you attend other programmes that will support learning in specific skill areas as well as giving us time to get to know you better.

We have seen great success in the past few years and are very keen to keep growing this exciting and dynamic employment stream. Moxie Employment placements are arranged with employers as opportunities arise. Employers are then matched with appropriate trainees based on interests, skill, location, and shift times. We will do our best to find work for all who are interested, but suggest you continue your own investigations too.

Please note, we cannot guarantee immediate work placements. Moxie Employment is arranged with employers as opportunities arise. Placements are then matched with appropriate trainees based on interests, skill, location, and shift times. 

If you are registered with Recreate NZ and would like to express interest in employment opportunities, please get in touch with the Moxie team, moxie@recreate.org.nz.
