Welcome to Yvette Harrison Recruitment

During more than two decades as a recruitment consultant I have worked with thousands of companies and candidates throughout NZ. Individual scenarios differ but they all have a common need that informs every aspect of my service – and that is to receive professional, personalised service that makes them feel valued.

I will deliver this – and more – when working with you. As one of New Zealand’s leading technical recruitment specialists, I work on a low-volume high value model. This means you will only be dealing with me at every stage of the process, gaining the maximum benefit from my years of experience and extensive industry networks.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Yvette for the past three years and of all the agencies I have dealt with she was the only one that followed up and kept in touch. Yvette was also successful in placing me in a great role.

Great lady and great at her job.

Yvette has been fantastic. She has clearly assessed my experience and skill set to judge if further involvement in the interview process is appropriate and at the same time has supplied me with all I need to present myself and my skill set clearly to the client.

Yvette was very knowledgeable and responded to my enquires with professionalism and without delay.

Candidate
James

I had the opportunity of working closely with Yvette on several recruitment assignments at my previous company (Griffins Foods Ltd). I found her to be a person with whom I could relate to easily on a professional level. She has indepth experience and expertise in her chosen field hence the great calibre of quality candidates she had placed within the business who had a huge impact on driving improved performance.

I found that Yvette's level of service delivery was impecable especially at times when the the markets were low on good candidates. Sshe would find them for me....we are still in touch and I would continue to engage her services should I require them in the future and have no hesitation recommending her to other business.
