What the Supreme Courts landmark decision about the test for contractors vs employees means for the New Zealand workforce.

Gambit has introduced a 10% Rebate to reward clients who partner with us consistently . The rebate reflects our commitment to long-term, trust-driven relationships rather than transactional recruitment. It’s our way of saying thank you, reinvesting in clients and strengthening collaborative, values-aligned partnerships.

Choosing the right recruiter can make all the difference. Generalists move fast and cover many roles, but specialist recruiters like Gambit tap into the passive tech talent others can’t reach. That means smarter hires for businesses and more meaningful opportunities for candidates.

The Employment Relations Amendment Bill 2025 could reshape the way New Zealand employers hire, manage, and support staff. With changes like clearer contractor definitions, stronger protections for fair processes, and limits on personal grievance claims for high earners, businesses can gain more flexibility and certainty. Staying informed now means less risk and smoother employment relationships down the track.

New Zealand’s new AI strategy focuses on enabling real-world adoption and boosting productivity across the economy. The challenge now is ensuring smaller businesses don’t get left behind, and that the tech sector is ready to support the transition.

Vibe coding is an emerging way of building software where developers collaborate directly with AI to shape ideas through conversation rather than strict planning. It’s early, but it could fundamentally shift how teams design, code and hire.

At Gambit we back our ability to find you the perfect candidate. So much so, that if they leave within the guarantee period, and we can’t replace them, we offer you 110% credit note.

We’re so excited to introduce you to Gambit Recruitment…
