    At Workbridge, we link the right people to the right jobs.
    That's a win-win for everyone.

    Workbridge is a specialist employment service that works with disabled people and people with health issues including mental illness and addiction. We are about recognising and strengthening ability rather than focusing on disability. This means the people we promote for a vacancy will have the necessary skills and attitudes for the job.

    We work at no cost for jobseekers and employers to match people to the right job.

    Workbridge is the largest New Zealand-owned employment agency for disabled people and people with health issues. We are the specialists when it comes to working with disabled jobseekers, employers and workplaces. We started out in 1990 and now have 22 locations across New Zealand.

    Workbridge has a governance and senior management structure led by disabled people. This includes a Council, Board and Senior Management Team. Our National Office is based in Wellington. Contact details for our National Office, 22 service centres and the Support Fund Services Unit can be found on the website workbridge.co.nz

    Workbridge is an incorporated society and a not-for-profit organisation.
