Four years of across-the-board economic growth in Hawke's Bay has contributed to a very low unemployment rate.
There is good demand for both skilled and semi-skilled labour. Semi-skilled labour demand runs through our primary production sectors and includes positions such as fruit pickers and packers; food processors and fork lift drivers.
Skilled labour demand is just as intense, with the keen interest shown in people with trades qualifications (builders, plumbers, electricians and the engineering trades such as fitting and turning) and professional qualifications (engineers, accountants, technologists etc).
