Welcome to contracting

Contractors are the heart of our business

 

The care we take to match you with contract opportunities aligned with your skills, aspirations, values and how you want to balance work alongside the rest of your life, has made Careering Options the agency of choice for many professional contractors.   

With 30 years’ experience in the Wellington market, we are well networked across the public sector and able to offer our contractors access to a wide range of contract opportunities. 

We also work on permanent and fixed-term roles, which contractors sometimes prefer due to personal circumstances and work preferences.

  • Programme and project management, 

  • Strategy planning and reporting, 

  • Communications & engagement,  

  • Crown/Māori relations, 

  • Business analysis,
