How it works

Tell us what you need. We vet, match and brief the right people, then get them to your site ready to work, usually inside a day.
Find Staff

1. Get in touch.

Tell us the role, the site location, the start date and what the job needs. We take a detailed brief so we recruit with precision from day one.

2. We vet & match.

We search our candidate pools first, then screen, interview, run checks and competency where required.

3. On site.

The placement is confirmed and your crew arrived compliant, inducted and ready to work - usually within 24 hours.

4. We stay close.

You're not just a number. We stay in touch throughout your placement - assisting with any issues, offering up-skilling opportunities or supporting you through to permanent employment, we're here to back your growth!

    After nearly a year of searching, ALH finally helped me land a job at the warehouse. It was such a relief, and the support made all the difference.

Meet Izzy

Started at 21, out to change the industry.

Izzy Whitley started ALH in 2016, at 21, to give other New Zealanders the same start the trades had given him. Ten years on, that’s twelve branches across the country, a national client base, and a culture built on backing people and going the extra mile, at the 5:50am workouts and everywhere else. People come first here, always.

Quick answers

The questions we get asked most, from both sides of the job. If yours isn't here, just ask.

Still have questions?

Call your local branch or send us a message.
A real person will get back to you.

Most enquiries go from first call to people on site within 24 hours, and we keep a backup ready in case someone doesn’t show.

No account fees. No set-up costs. Just one hourly rate per candidate, agreed upfront, covering our full service from vetting to on-going candidate care, PPE to ACC levy’s. It’s the same rate and the same level of care whether you’re covering a single shift or building out a long-term team.

Either apply for existing roles listed on our site, or send us your CV and we’ll match you to what’s coming up. We’ll then meet you to understand your work experience, skills, tickets or licenses and what work you’re interested in. We then work hard to match you with employer of best fit – No CV, see next FAQ below.

Yes — a CV isn’t a dealbreaker. We’ll have a chat and get to know you: your education, work history, and the kind of roles you’re after. That’s often all we need to start matching you with the right opportunities. Come as you are, and we’ll help you put your best foot forward.

We operate across 13 branches throughout Australasia, 11 regional branches in New Zealand and 2 in Queensland, Australia. Wherever you’ll find one of our branches, we can service the surrounding region, so if you’re near an ALH location, we can help — whether you’re looking for work or need reliable staff on-site.

Labour hire is a temporary staffing solution; we supply skilled workers to fill roles on the ground, from entry-level positions through to experienced supervisory and managerial staff. You get the people you need, when you need them, without taking on the employment relationship yourself.
