Are their a lot of jobs in the conservation sector in New Zealand?

Question

Im a South African with experience and i hold 2 diplomas in that area of work. Are their any useful websites or recruitment agencies out there that specialise in that sort of work?

Any info would be much appreciated. thanks

Answer 1

try these sites....the govt one is for all government agencies....but there are also private sector jobs as wel but I guess you would go to the specific companies for that

Answer 2

try www.trademe.co.nz, look under jobs and search conservation

Answer 3

NZ currently has a very low rate of unemployment so it is not unusual for skilled people to have more than one job offer at the moment.

Obviously www.seek.co.nz which is the general jobs site.

A popular one at the moment, and one that is gaining ground with government departments, ministries and local and regional councils is New Zealand Conservation Jobs http://www.conjobs.co.nz/index.php

I would also suggest following the link to “getting a job” on this site as it has some commonly used terms you may find helpful.

If you check this site you will also see links to other organisations - that could help you find the job you want.

Answer 4

I would say not.New Zealand is facing a recession. But try the Department of Conservation.I only have an address and fax for them.  Hawkes Bay Area Office fax. [phone]. you will need to fax to 64 06 8344869      This is the international number for NZ,followed by the area code,and then the fax number.
