KIRSTEN BANGS
Director
Kirsten is passionate about people and began her career seventeen years ago working in the community development and mental health sector, it was during this time that Kirsten got a taste for employment and has not looked back!
Kirsten has supported hundreds of people into meaningful employment over the years working with people across all walks of life including released offenders, people with health and disability challenges and youth/rangatahi. Her reputation and innovative ideas caught the attention of large government organisations and she has worked collaboratively with them to create employment events in Rotorua.
In early 2021 Kirsten decided to take the plunge and start her own company where she could further strengthen her relationships with the local business community.
Kirsten wants to bring the personable approach back into recruitment and change the way recruitment is done for the better.
Kirsten believes there is a need and desire to keep things local… and what better than someone who is born and bred here!?
