New Pacific-wide recruitment and workforce development service good for employers and jobseekers

Today’s launch of Pacific People, marks the opening of the first Pacific-wide specialised end-to-end online recruitment service, headquartered in Suva, Fiji.

Pacific People’s General Manager, Thelma Taria-Savua, said the company is committed to placing more Pacific people into senior roles and building skills through workforce development.

“Pacific People also aims to encourage labour mobility within the region, while also enabling diaspora to return to work in their home countries,” she said.

“We’re the seamless one-stop-shop the region has needed for any company or organisation seeking the right person with the right skills as well as those seeking new employment prospects.”

Employers and job seekers can utilise Pacific People’s region-wide jobs board to achieve their recruitment and career objectives respectively.

“No longer will job-seekers or those seeking to fill a role need to scour newspapers or rely on word of mouth. We’ve made it easier than ever to fill a role and find the perfect job online, from your desktop or the palm of your hand,” Taria-Savua said.

Pacific People is the latest initiative to be launched by AVI, an organisation with more than 50 years’ experience building capacity through the sharing of skills and experience in Fiji and the region. 

AVI CEO, Paul Bird, said “Pacific People harnesses the considerable expertise and experience of AVI in recruitment and workforce development, as well as its systems and quality”.
