Relocate to a better work-life balance in New Zealand
Rated by the Global Peace Index as the second safest country in the world, and by HSBC’s 2017 Expat Explorer Survey as the number one destination for overall expat experience, it isn’t difficult to see why relocating to New Zealand might be a great idea.
Boasting an inclusive culture and emphasis on supportive workplaces, there are many aspects of a new life in New Zealand that might appeal. Expats in New Zealand are 60% more likely to enjoy outdoor activities than their counterparts elsewhere in the world, they report greater improvements in their family’s wellbeing post-move than expats in any other country and perhaps as a result, they’re 30% more likely to stay in their new home for five years or more than other expats.
With skills shortages across numerous industries, the New Zealand government are keen to ensure that expats continue to move to the country for work. Opportunities for career progression are plentiful, but what many prospective expats want to know is how their new work-life balance will stack up. Luckily, locals and international workers alike can’t stop shouting about the relaxed way of living, and how the friendly culture and beautiful landscapes team up to make living in New Zealand hard to beat.
