Welcome to our latest innovation


Temp Market is a new technology-driven online platform that brings together job seekers and those who need temporary or contract staff. The new service cuts out the middle men – recruiters – who can slow down the employment process and often charge high fees for presenting candidates according to the company.

The service is a cost-effective, self-managed recruitment option for hiring temporary and contract workers. Technology has revolutionised many business models – not least the dating sites as we all know – by providing a direct channel between needs and those who can meet those needs. Temp Market is enabling transparency and immediacy for businesses that need to hire temporary staff but which for valid reasons are reluctant to go through a recruitment agency.

On the Temp Market website, business and HR managers can review all profiles of matched temps, decide who is right for them, then send them a brief overview of the role. Via their own account, temporary staff can then review and accept or decline the assignment. The first temp to accept secures the job.

It's a technology based approach to finding contractors and temporary workers which creates transparency. It also provides a three-dimensional viewpoint of each possible temporary worker, combining previous work experience, skill set, personality profile and previous employer reviews.Both people looking for temp roles and those looking to employ temps can now connect at Temp Market. If you are out of work and available for temporary assignments, register with us!

If your staff member calls in sick, act – search for suitable skill sets at Temp Market.All temps registered with Temp Market are reference checked, credit checked and have had their skills tests completed so there is greater assurances of who a company is getting.

Unlike a recruitment agency, we are simply a portal that enables them to meet, cutting out the middle man. And unlike a recruitment agency, Temp Market cannot pre-qualify candidates so as an employer you see all who match your needs.Find out more at tempmarket.co.nz
