Life at Z
Our Crew
Our people are not only all unique, we’re also in a bunch of different roles across Z. The common denominator, however, is that we’re all passionate about what we do! We work hard to reach our goals, and we have fun along the way. If our 78% engagement score this year is anything to go by, we reckon our people really love the part they play in making Z a successful, extraordinary place to work.
Our Benefits
Let’s be straight up – money is important when you’re making a decision about where to work. At Z we believe in rewarding for extraordinary performance, and this is reflected in our remuneration packages. We also have a range of other perks that focus on other areas of your life that we know are important - including your family, lifestyle and wellness. Our employees think Z’s a great place to work too - in 2015, we were named an Aon Hewitt Best Employer.
Our Vibe
We’re really open in the way we work, so we have well-designed offices that makes the most of informal areas like booths, couches, and even an internal café area with Z Espress coffee on tap. We believe in the ability to work flexibly so we have laptops which frees us up to move around, and we even have areas dedicated to our wellbeing. We are extremely passionate about everything we do at Z and this starts with a few key areas that are really important to all of us - HSSE, Sustainability and Community.
Our Development
We’re big on development here at Z, with a vision that our people’s work environment is more closely experienced as personal growth rather than ‘just work’, including dedicated leadership programmes at all levels across Z. We provide support to help you get after what matters to you, and we’ve been recognised as an Aon Hewitt Top Company for Leaders. When we talk about leadership, we don’t mean, “Are you in a leadership role?” We mean, do you make things happen? Act as one team? Inspire others? If yes, then Z may just be the place for you.
This is our purpose. It guides both our actions and our behaviours, and it reflects our commitment to do the right thing for New Zealand.
Z Values
A company needs to have values it's prepared to stand by. Our values are the soul of our company and these are the things that make us so very Z!
We believe that so much more can be achieved if we are united. If we share our thoughts, our knowledge and our passion then we’ll all share the success.
It is impossible to be the best unless you are absolutely passionate about what you are doing and you take ownership of it. We are and we do. Our business helps to keep the country running. Literally. And we intend to do it better than anyone and bring more benefits to the whole of New Zealand.
There’s no point being in this business to be just another energy company. We intend to be the best. We can only do that by taking the initiative, by challenging the status quo, by being bold and courageous, and by backing ourselves. So that’s exactly what we do.
As far as we’re concerned there’s only one way to do business, and that’s the New Zealand way. So we make it our mission to be honest, open, transparent and real.
We back our employees to grow and succeed. We give back to the neighbourhoods we work in. We back our customers by knowing what they want and making it happen for them.
Z Why
At Z, we focus on achieving outcomes by setting the appropriate context, rather than trying to control people - we believe in "why" versus "way". In choosing to work for Z there are things you need to know, things you need to do and ways you need to be. Most of all you need to understand why.
