About Yvette

A technical recruitment consultant with a difference.

As a technical recruitment consultant, I love helping companies successfully recruit highly skilled ‘technical’ people.

I am not merely matching buzzwords, but invest time to learn how your business works and the specifics of each role. I gain enormous satisfaction knowing I have helped make a difference to your business!

More than two decades in this field has shown me that a successful outcome for companies and candidates arises from connecting the dots between the hiring company needs, what the candidate has to offer, and their requirements.

This will include:

  • Professional skills and education
  • Experience
  • Personal attributes, attitudes and behaviours
  • Practical requirements: remuneration and location
  • Motivation

Get all of those five elements right and we have found the right person for the right job.

What is everyone else saying?

Here are some comments from happy customers and candidates.

It was a pleasure to have Yvette as my recruiter in securing my first role after finishing my studies. She was always a delight to speak to, and she regularly contacted me to discuss how I was finding my role.

Yvette has been fantastic. She has clearly assessed my experience and skill set to judge if further involvement in the interview process is appropriate and at the same time has supplied me with all I need to present myself and my skill set clearly to the client.

I have met and known Yvette. H for quite some time, and I have seen and experienced quite a few recruitment agencies/agents over my 15 years of career in the NZ Food industry --- I am happy and confident to say that Yvette Harrison is certainly one of the best in this area, and have no hesitation to recommend to my friends or anyone who are looking for their next move.

I had the opportunity of working closely with Yvette on several recruitment assignments at my previous company (Griffins Foods Ltd). I found her to be a person with whom I could relate to easily on a professional level. She has indepth experience and expertise in her chosen field hence the great calibre of quality candidates she had placed within the business who had a huge impact on driving improved performance.

I found that Yvette's level of service delivery was impecable especially at times when the the markets were low on good candidates. Sshe would find them for me....we are still in touch and I would continue to engage her services should I require them in the future and have no hesitation recommending her to other business.

It is indeed my pleasure to thank Yvette Harrison for her contribution. Thanks to Yvette, my Job hunt hasn’t gone through much hassle. Yvette is adept in this technical recruitment arena, exhibiting professionalism, reliable communication and charisma.

I recall my experience with her when she identified my expectations and skill sets to match the right employer. Beyond the recruitment process, she even took personal care in my career path and gave consultation on what would suit me the best, especially as an immigrant in this soil.

Thanking once again for her contribution, I would highly recommend Yvette for candidates seeking opportunities in the operations and continuous improvement field.
