The politically correct stuff…
Our objective is to EQUIP businesses with it’s most valuable asset – people!
Our personal approach and passion for delivering a positive experience to our customers and future employees is what makes us who we are. We are 100% locally owned and operated and we know the local market.
When a client engages EQUIP they’re working with partners who deliver because our team understand your business. We have a transparent approach to our work, we act with integrity and we provide everybody with the good honest service that they deserve.
The Nitty Gritty
To know how we work you may wish to know a little about us…..
It all started at a BBQ when Stu and Colin Chapman crossed paths and came up with the idea for EQUIP Recruitment. EQUIP opened its doors in Petone in 2011 with additional offices opening in Porirua in 2017, Palmerston North in 2019, and Hastings in 2021. Brent joined EQUIP in 2021 adding more firepower to the team and is now also a business partner with Stu and Colin.
Our mantra is simple: “It’s about people – not politics or BS,” and that’s how we roll today. We treat our recruiters right, pay them well, and go way beyond just “making placements.” We genuinely care about our clients, candidates, and safety at work—never compromising on people’s well-being for the sake of profit. At EQUIP, it’s all about business smarts, results, and being a good, authentic human being.
We love supporting our community, and we’re always out there, staying visible and doing business with integrity. As individuals and as a company, we’re committed to being socially and environmentally responsible. We’re shaking things up, leading from the front, and changing the way business is done.
Come be a part of it!
