Attract. Connect. Building the Workforce Your Business Needs

4 mins read

For more than 25 years, OneStaff has helped businesses across New Zealand find the people they need to keep work moving and connecting candidates with the next steps to build their careers.

Now we’re bringing even more expertise, networks and support to those relationships through our Two Brands | One Team approach.  OneStaff and Magnetic are working together to give clients and candidates access to more specialist knowledge, stronger networks and a wider range of opportunities across New Zealand.

For businesses, that means access to Trades, Operations, Technical and Professional expertise through one connected team.

For candidates, it means access to a wider range of roles, specialist industry knowledge and a larger network of employers.

The relationships stay the same. The support behind them gets even stronger.

“Two Brands | One Team is about giving businesses and candidates access to a broader range of expertise, networks and resource solutions through one coordinated team.  It’s a practical way for us to deliver more value while continuing to build stronger outcomes for the people and organisations we support.”  Colin Daly, CEO

Our approach is simple:
Attract. Connect.

Attract the people your business needs

Finding the right people starts well before you see a CV.

It’s about understanding the business, workplace, people and what success looks like in the role.

Together OneStaff and Magnetic bring experience across construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, logistics, engineering, technology, energy, utilities, project management, people and capability, finance, commercial, sales and executive appointments.

This breadth of experience helps us better understand the organisations, teams and roles we’re recruiting for.

We know local knowledge matters, as does reach.  With teams across New Zealand, we can combine local market connections with a stronger network of people, helping businesses respond when they need additional people or workforce support.

That might mean supporting a short-term staffing requirement, providing people for a project, helping manage seasonal demand, finding the right long-term addition to your team or supporting an international resourcing requirement.

Connect the right people with the right opportunities

Attracting people is only part of the equation.  The real value comes from making the right connection.

For businesses, that means connecting with people who can contribute to the team, understand the work and meet the requirements of the role.

For candidates, it means connecting with employers and roles that match their skills, experience and career goals.

We take the time to understand both sides.

Because a successful placement isn’t simply about solving a workforce requirement. It’s about creating a connection that works for the person, the team and the business.

Workforce solutions that flex with your business

Not every workforce requirement looks the same.

Sometimes you need people quickly to keep a project moving.  Sometimes you need additional support during a period of growth.  Sometimes you’re looking for someone who can become a permanent part of your team.

Our team can provide workforce and resource solutions across temporary, contract, permanent, temp-to-permanent, executive and international appointments.

Whether you need workforce scale, specialist technical expertise, professional talent or leadership expertise, we can bring the right people and knowledge together around your requirements.

Together, we can draw on a wider range of knowledge, networks and market insights to deliver the right solutions.

Our focus is to understand what you need and help you find a practical way forward.

Sometimes a workforce challenge involves more than one type of expertise.

You may need skilled tradespeople for a project today, engineering expertise for a new initiative, a finance leader to support growth or specialist technical talent to strengthen your team.

Through our Two Brands | One Team approach, clients and candidates can draw on the collective knowledge, networks and experience of both brands through one coordinated team.

For our clients, that means one coordinated experience, with access to the right people and specialist knowledge when it’s needed, without having to navigate multiple providers or relationships.

Two specialist brands. One connected team.

More than filling roles

Attract. Connect. is more than a tagline.

It reflects how we approach our work.

Attract the people and capability businesses need.

Connect people with work where their skills and experience can make a difference.

And build the relationships that make those connections stronger over time.

For more than 25 years, OneStaff has been helping businesses find the people they need and supporting candidates into meaningful work.

Two Brands | One Team builds on that foundation, bringing together the strengths of OneStaff and Magnetic so businesses and candidates can benefit from broader experience, stronger networks and more ways to find the right fit.
