Reasons for engaging temporary staff are many and various, from covering absenteeism due to holidays, maternity leave, sickness or bereavement, to cover for seasonal peaks, unexpected workload fluctuations and special projects.
Horizon can also provide you a suitably qualified person to assist you trial and evaluate a new, revised or existing position so as to assess its viability and suitability for permanent staffing.
Or you may just need someone to cover a vacated position until you find a suitable new permanent employee - and yes, we're here for you even if you're doing your own recruiting!
Naturally price will be a consideration when choosing a provider. You may find though, not all temporary staff agencies quote on the same basis. By way of example, the hourly rate that we both agree, is all you pay. This means that it's Horizon who takes care of its Temp Employees holiday pay, non worked public holiday pay, sick and bereavement leave, special leave, PAYE tax, ACC levies, compulsory employers Kiwisaver contributions, any bonuses or discretionary payments, payroll administration and the cost of staff acquisition, retention and management.
While some agencies may operate on higher margins, rates can also vary due to the differences in the calibre of person that each agency considers most suitable to fulfil a given position. However, if you've been offered a rate that seems just too good to be true, don't be suprised if the person you've been assigned turns up for work on "trainer wheels". By all means you want to strike a competitive rate, but equally we believe, you need to feel reassured the service you're about to receive is also "fit for purpose".
All we ask is that you treat our temping and contract staff with the same respect and care you would your own employees.
Recruitment Services - Candidate Selection
Selection and assessment of talent, whether permanent or flexible term, is arguably one of the most critical functions within any organisation. It's about making your business the best it can be through the people you employ.
Our expertise is in sourcing and attracting the best talent to your organisation and it is our aim to deliver exceptional candidates every time.
We recognise that recruitment can be a time-consuming, stressful and often expensive exercise for any employer. Therefore, we strive to ensure that every step of the recruitment process is managed in partnership with you with a complete focus on the optimum outcome for you and for your potential employee.
What really sets us above the rest is the expertise, attention to detail and the genuine care with which we manage every recruitment assignment to ensure a smooth, trouble free process and a rewarding outcome.
And because Horizon's Directors are 'hands-on' in the business, you are assured of continuity and a quality of service delivery that will exceed your expectations time after time.
Contract and Temporary Staff
The growth of 'interim resourcing' in the New Zealand market reflects the need for flexible term, focussed expertise alongside a growing awareness among business professionals that their skills and experience are marketable in more ways than one.
Horizon provides high calibre contract and temporary staff for short and long term assignments together with exceptional support and service.
Because our rates are tailored to reflect your requirements and the skill level required for a given assignment, you pay only for the skills required for your immediate needs.
Whatever your resourcing requirements, we provide real value and highly cost effective solutions.
