To lead the people is to walk beside them

GROWING OUR PEOPLE

Te Arawa Mahi has been providing employment opportunities within the seafood sector since 2014. We have paid out over $2.5 million dollars (gross) worth of wages directly to Te Arawa whānau in the past 6 years. As we move into a post COVID-19 world we are looking at how we can do even more! By partnering with more businesses both locally and regionally we will be able to provide opportunities to work, learn, and upskill our staff.

FAQS

Te Arawa Mahi Limited directly recruits and employs all staff. You will be paid by Te Arawa Mahi but will work at locations in and around the Bay of Plenty.
All contracts are on a casual and fixed-term seasonal basis. Due to the nature of the work we currently offer it is impossible to predict when and how much work will be available. However, it is not uncommon for our staff to be offered full-time employment direct with the companies they work in. Other opportunities for guaranteed hours have also arisen within some jobs.
We currently have established partnerships within the fish processing industry and the kiwifruit industry. The work is mainly packing, stacking and strapping boxed product. Our staff are often targeted for work in other areas, such as quality control, when they show commitment to the job and reliablity. Both industries run on a seasonal basis and are often weather dependant.
Yes. Before you can work you will need to pass a drug and alcohol test. These tests are confidential and performed in-house by our Te Arawa Mahi Co-ordinator.
We are committed to helping people find employment, that is our main purpose – we are not here to judge. If you are unable to pass a test straight away we allow you to come back and test again in 6 weeks of being “clean”.
Work ready means you are ready to work now. You will have passed a drug and alcohol test and be ready to go to work when we call.
We provide a door to door pick up service. We collect staff from their homes and transport them directly to work sites. After work we collect staff from the work site and drop them at home. Usually we do not allow our staff to drive themselves to and from work. This is not only a safety issue but also means we can monitor who will be at work on any given day.
All necessary equipment and work clothing, including PPE, are provided. We ask that you wear comfortable clothing, and closed toes shoes each day. You must be wearing closed toe shoes to enter work sites – NO JANDALS OR SANDALS.
