How it works
Mana in Mahi gives employers funding and support to hire young people or people who are looking to retrain. This helps employers grow their businesses and support their community.
We work with employers across New Zealand in a range of industries, including:
- construction
- forestry
- hospitality.
We help people to:
- get a job with these employers
- gain an industry qualification ( including apprenticeships) while they're working
- get the support they need to stay in work.
We support you and your employer to work together to build a relationship.
