​James was recognised as recruitment leader of the year at the 2017 annual SEEK SARA awards. Winning excellence in Candidate Engagement for the second year in a row, such a huge achievement for James and the Agoge team! 

We exist to invest in our future and do socially good in the world. Businesses can make a huge difference if the people and personalities within it are focused on 'doing good'. In this video, James highlights that it is people whom have values, not businesses. He also talks about what being a social business means to us at Agoge along with our business journey... And a big thanks to the team at Seek for the fantastic video too! 

This year, we were honoured with winning the service excellence category at the WWBA! Recognising consistent dedication to superlative service and commitment to the customer. ​

So you're interested in joining the Agoge team? We've got a short video to help you understand a little more about us here at Agoge, and what the Candidate Manager role involves!

Congratulations to Nicole Hoskins!At our recent staff conference in May, we announced our Agoge Person of the Year for 2016. This award is presented to one of the team who truly lives by the Agoge vision of People Matter ∴ Do Good and our be's values - this year it was awarded to Nicole, Hamilton Candidate Manager. It's awesome to be able to recognise her dedication and hard work and award her with a trip for 2 for 5 nights in Fiji! 

Nicole puts in a heap of hard work and is committed to looking after all of our onsite staff across the Waikato. Nicole's impact as a part of the Agoge team is invaluable, and she is the perfect example of living our vision of People Matter ∴ Do Good in everything she does!

Nicole began her time at Agoge with an internship whilst studying through the University of Waikato in 2014. She started with us full-time in November 2014 as a Candidate Manager in the Hamilton branch, and has been a hugely valued member of the Agoge team ever since.

Nicole has an awesome commitment to our onsite team, living the be’s values in all that she does by creating a fun work environment for us at support office, finding creative ways to do her job more productively and for doing an all-round awesome job! Congrats Nicole! 

Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd - Supplier of the Year 2014 & 2015
We were super excited last year when we won the Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd's Supplier of the Year award, having been working with Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd for just over 12 months... and we're now even more excited to announce that we have won again for 2015! The first supplier ever to win the award two years in a row. 

The Supplier Forum was a great night for Agoge, taking out two of the three awards for excellence. Rachel Ross, Key Account Manager at Agoge, also won the Supplier Representative of the Year award for 2015. 

The Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd Supplier Forum brings together all of Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd’s significant suppliers, big and small, to celebrate the year gone by and take a look at what the coming year might bring. It also recognises supplier excellence over the past 12 months with the supplier awards. Agoge's partnership with Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd currently provides onsite staff and training programs for manufacturing, distribution and equipment services across New Zealand. 

For Rachel and our team at Agoge, these awards are an incredible honour and recognise the great partnership that we have with Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd. At Agoge, we genuinely value and care for our people, and to have this recognised by a partner such as Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd is a great reflection of these efforts across the Agoge team. 

​Martin King, General Manager of Human Resources for Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd, sees the quality relationship that Agoge has with Coca-Cola Amatil NZ Ltd as one that is "built on trust, rather than a supplier relationship built on exchanging invoices."
