With more of our people being recruited overseas, particularly from the United Kingdom, we have gathered information and resources to help you. As with any life change there will be challenges, but we aim to make it as straightforward as possible.
There are a number of practical ways in which Beca can help you when it comes to making the move:
- Beca has Talent Accredited Status from the New Zealand Immigration Service, so your Work to Residence visa application will receive priority processing, relieving the uncertainty and stress around when your permit might be issued.
- The information contained here is designed to help you make important decisions around shipping your belongings, finding a home, choosing schools for your children, and generally finding your feet.
- Beca people care about their work and each other, and they will want you to feel at home as quickly as possible. Many have worked overseas, or immigrated, themselves, so they will understand what you are going through. We’re a large organisation by New Zealand standards, so there is plenty of opportunity to form networks and friendships through work.
