Employment Placement and Recruitment Services in New Zealand - Industry Market Research Report

Employment Placement and Recruitment Services in New Zealand

The industry has faced a mixed operating environment over the past few years. The industry was performing well until the COVID-19 outbreak created uncertainty for recruitment firms in 2020-21. This uncertainty resulted in industry demand and revenue dropping for the year, before stabilising in 2021-22 with solid growth anticipated for 2022-23. A lower national unemployment rate, increases in the size of the total labour force and greater demand for recruitment services contributed to an overall gain in industry demand and revenue over recent years.
