Kia Ora my name is Jerry and I have been with Rāranga for exactly 11 months. My experience being a labourer has been awesome, from starting as a labourer to potential apprenticeships and now currently head labourer leading a team of my own. Without the support of Rāranga and weekly reports checking on how things are had made my position more comfortable and open. Without Rāranga my leadership wouldn’t be as successful as it is now so I thank the team from head office for the opportunity and giving 100% support.
I have been employed with Rāranga for almost 2 years. They have provided me with a healthy work environment to learn and work since I left school. I have been supported with milestone training courses.
Rāranga has gone beyond tailoring plans for my career. They have provided me with strong building blocks and ensured my tools are sharp so I can continue chipping away at my success in the industry.
I enjoyed working with Rāranga because they have provided me with support and learning skills. Rāranga have put me in short courses (Ewp, work on heights, forklift, scaffolding), they supported me to get my apprenticeship and purchase and power tool.
It was a good decision I’ve made at the young age to become a qualified builder and Rāranga gave me that opportunity to get to where I am now. I’ve learned so much and met good people.
Expect a nurturing environment where career growth is paramount. You'll receive tailored support, education, and hands-on industry experience.

We provide comprehensive support through mentoring and pastoral care. Our team genuinely care about our kaimahi and have the flexibility to adapt and make sure our service best suits their needs.
Through collaboration and honesty we can address any barriers holding back our kaimahi and work with them and their community to help empower their success.
The difference between Rāranga and others in the market is how they go above and beyond for their kaimahi. Their support for workers and quick responses to any issues help maintain a smooth and cooperative site, which positively impacts the overall team dynamic.
Rāranga played a crucial role in the Bowen Campus project, providing quality staff who were well supported with proactive health and safety measures. Their dedication and partnership were invaluable, and I wholeheartedly recommend them for any construction project. I also absolutely support Rāranga in their wider objective to create opportunities for rangatahi to get their start in the Construction industry, to uplift and empower kaimahi from all backgrounds, ensuring that everyone has the chance to reach their full potential and progress in their chosen career goals.
Rāranga has been an invaluable partner in our Eastern Porirua Cadetship Programme from day one. Their exceptional recruitment process stands out, consistently connecting Porirua City Council with talented local candidates who contribute meaningfully to our project while building promising careers. The Rāranga team goes above and beyond to support both the Council and our cadets. I highly recommend Rāranga as a trusted resource for any organization’s recruitment needs.
Immediately it was clear that the team at Rāranga had sent me a great match to our company. Tui was a hit; upon meeting him I knew that he was the right fit for our team!
Rāranga made this process easy, and I understood the fee structure and how it was directly linked to Tui’s prior training, this meant that the transfer of Tui was a “no-brainer” …. He has quickly become a valued member of our team.
Our ownership model enables us to connect deeply with both the local community and industry leaders, ensuring our programs are tailored to meet current and future needs. We enhance independence through building a meaningful web of support and creating relationships within the community that helps set our people up for success.
