Getting summer ready

We’re happy to share some of the systems we have put in place to be ready for (and to stay sane during) Raglan’s peak season. Bring on summer!

📋 Streamlined recruitment

A high-functioning team, trained, ready, keen, and staying with us, is pivotal!

As such, we have streamlined our recruitment and employment process. It’s all online. It can be done rapidly, with clarity, and in compliance with Employment law.

  • Application process - one central place for all the info about a prospective team member. No pivotal info missed.

  • Casual contract - A quick and clear way to share the terms of employment and stay compliant with Employment law.

☀️ Summer incentive

Commitment, reliability and hard work aren’t taken for granted. We want to ensure that we have a reliable, stable team, and we reward this behaviour.

We pay living wage as a base-line anyways. And if there is something in it–financially– for the team members, they are most likely to give us that commitment and stability. Feedback has been great!


🌿 Sustainable Stays

A Guest Sustainability Pledge and Owner Giving Programme, in partnership with Whāingaroa Environment Centre.

Some* holiday homeowners want to be good community members… but they are not here, and mostly don’t have a way of contributing. Guests are out of their routine and it’s too easy to skip the good habits they have it home.

We are developing an engagement strategy that will facilitate both owners and guests to be better Raglanites. We want to do this collaboratively, and share it far and wide… as that’s where the best outcomes for Raglan can be found.

Wanna collaborate? Join us!

(*not all, and we’ll work with the willing!)

“We are people-focused, accountable, sustainable, and excellent.”
