BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION & I.T

At Momentum, we understand that transformation is more than technology — it’s about people, process, and purpose.

Whether you’re undertaking a digital transformation, modernising legacy systems, or rethinking your operating model, we connect you with the right expertise to make it happen.

 

We recruit across both permanent and contract markets, using a blend of search, targeted sourcing, and deep existing networks to attract talent who can deliver impact from day one.

 

Our clients span central and local government, state-owned enterprises, private corporates, utilities, and not-for-profits — organisations that are shaping the digital and operational future of New Zealand. We tailor our approach to suit each environment, whether you’re scaling up delivery capability or embedding enterprise-wide transformation.

 

From enterprise architects to programme directors, change leaders to data specialists, our dedicated consultants focus exclusively on Business Transformation and IT recruitment. We understand the balance between strategic vision and technical delivery — and we’re passionate about helping you build teams that can translate ideas into action.

SEASONAL DEMANDS

Businesses often require extra manpower during peak seasons or specific times of the year, such as holidays or busy periods, to handle increased workload efficiently without committing to permanent hires.

SPECIAL PROJECTS OR EVENTS

Companies undertake short-term projects or events that demand additional resources or specialized skills. Temporary employees can be brought in to support these endeavors without long-term obligations.

EMPLOYEE ABSENCES OR LEAVES

Unforeseen absences due, for example, to illness or parental leave can leave gaps in the workforce. Temp employees can fill in these roles, ensuring the continuity of operations until permanent solutions are found.

Organisations we sponsor & support

Our process

  • 1. CLIENT BRIEFING & MARKET RESEARCH

    We build our understanding of your organisation and develop a complete overview of the role. We complete a thorough search of potential candidates, from within the Momenlum database and other sources.

  • 2. ADVERTISING

    We customise an advertising campaign for each of our clients that differs depending on their requirements. We utilise multiple job boards such as Seek and Linkedln, social media channels and platforms to build our long list.

  • 3. SCREENING

    From our applications list we screen the candidates with a 20-30 minute phone conversation to gauge communication style, relevant experience and organisational fit.

  • 4. LONGLIST DISCUSSION

    We present the 5 to 10 most suitable candidate's curriculum vitae and cover letter (if included), and discuss our conversations and their background with you to determine your preferences.

  • 5. INTERNAL INTERVIEW

    We invite the preferred candidates in for a full competency-based interview, helping us to realise a candidate's capability and expertise.

  • 6. SHORTLIST PRESENTATION

    Together with you, we agree and finalise the short list of candidates, and liaise with you to set up interviews.

  • 7. PROBITY CHECKS

    We complete full probity checks on all candidates that are moving forward in the process. This includes criminal, credit (if required) and qualification checks. We have a priority relationship with Ministry of Justice, meaning our criminal checks are returned within 2 to 3 days.

  • 8. PSYCHOMETRIC ASSESSMENT

    Recommended for senior leadership roles, ensuring well-rounded understanding of a candidate's abilities (before or after client interviews) and before reference checks because often these inform further interview and referee questions exploring key areas in more depth.

  • 9. REFERENCE CHECKS

    We typically complete two to three verbal reference checks on candidates to assist with the selection process. This can be tailored for specific role competencies or to probe any areas of interest or concern after the completion of Psychometric Assessment.

  • 10. OFFER, NEGOTIATION & ONBOARDING

    We present the offer and negotiate with the selected candidate.
