Details
Travel
Currently, Word of Life NZ has 2 offices - one in the North Island, and one in the South Island. The head office is based at the North Island location of Hamilton. It is most likely that you would start your time at our head office, but both locations work closely together and there is travel between both sites.
Visa
To gain entry into NZ you will require a Religious Workers Visa. This allows you to stay for an initial period of 2 years, with an extension available after that time. For more information see: https://www.immigration.govt.nz
Housing
All of our staff have accommodation in the local community. You will be assisted to find appropriate boarding, or rental accommodation in the vicinity of your posting.
Transportation
Transport in New Zealand is predominantly by road, so you would need to purchase a car for personal use. Budget approximately $5000 for this expense. Word of Life will cover fuel costs for work related transport.
What To Bring
The climate in New Zealand is sub-tropical. This means that some parts of the country will experience snow in winter, but this is rarely the case where our major cities are located. In the summer expect warm, sunny days and regular trips to the beach. You will want to pack for the range of temperatures as the seasons change.
What To Wear
We allow staff members the freedom to dress according to the style of their choice. However, the following should be considered: Wear tidy casual dress to the office and events. Clothing should be clean and neat, free of holes, tears or other signs of wear. Hair/beards/moustaches should be well-groomed. Always wear footwear around the office and at events.
