Annette is a Kiwi who made the move back home, and hasn’t looked back.
After years overseas, she decided it was time to return to New Zealand. “I’m a Kiwi returning home!” she says. A quick Google search led her to Prospero, and from that moment the journey back couldn’t have been smoother.
Her consultant was, in her words, “super knowledgeable and knew the perfect school to place me at :) really cared about making sure it was a good fit (for both employer and employee!).”
The role she stepped into has been “beyond my expectations :)” with a “very collaborative, very organised” team, “wonderful tamariki” and a “fantastic work/ life balance.”
Prospero assisted her with “all the paperwork and gave excellent tips about salary assessments etc :).” The move home was seamless, and she’s embraced “everything!” about living and working in New Zealand again.
When asked what advice she’d give to others thinking about a move, Annette says:
“Do it!!! You won't regret it - especially when you go through an agency like Prospero - they really care about where you are placed and ensuring it is a good fit. They will also help with all the logistics of moving. It is a great opportunity - don't pass it up! :)”
For Kiwis living abroad, Annette’s story is a reminder that home will always be here, and with the right role and the right support, coming back can be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make.
