People You Can

PYCT is a 100% locally owned and operated recruitment agency.

Our significant point of difference is that we are specialising to fill the staffing needs of the New Zealand building and construction sector.

This specialisation means that we will develop an understanding of every construction project of any significant size in this country, and most importantly, its exact stage of construction.

Combine that with a large database of people who are essentially mobile, and we have the capability for timely delivery of people at every phase of any project’s life.

We pride ourselves on working with our clients to create workable and successful solutions for both organisations.

Some of our team have worked in the construction, consumer, logistics and IT industries for the past 40 years in various capacities.

Their knowledge includes recruitment/engagement, remote camp set-up and management, jobsite security, health and safety management and industrial relations management on some of New Zealand and Australia’s largest civil/mechanical projects.

Construction execution can be an unpredictable game. Our goal is to deliver as much certainty as possible in the area of supplying the people required to undertake your scope of work, however large that may be.

We will invest heavily in our recruiting process to secure the right people, sourced both locally and internationally.

Regardless of what stage you’re at with your project, we’ll get the right person to fulfil your needs.  We can provide staffing solutions upon demand, but there is a much better way to ensure your success.

We can support you through the Labour Demand Curve for the project you are undertaking, we are able to take a longer-term, phased approach to sourcing people, such that they are delivered when the progress of your job requires them. Our resource pool will evolve over time, providing you with a range of suitable personnel; to get your project flying

Significantly, our recruitment consultants undertake one-on-one interviews with every potential candidate before they can become part of the PYCT team.  It’s just part of ensuring the people we recommend to you will be the right ‘fit’ for your company and job site.

The essence of the service we offer is that it’s responsive – if you require staff for a couple of hours to fill a spot left by an unreliable staff member, we’ll move heaven and earth to help you out.

Let’s be clear here; we do not claim to have access to an infinite pool of perfect candidates, ready to work for you.

We live in the real world; one that is full of risks and pitfalls.  What we have done is spend a good deal of time and effort to convert our understanding of the known risks employing people into detailed systems that we then will consistently and rigorously apply to ensure that any person we put forward to work for you is a known quantity. 

Within the context of lawful practice, we will be straight with you about recommended people. In short, we seek to provide you with people you can trust.
