The South Island’s commercial centre, with strong construction, agribusiness, health and technology employment. Our Christchurch team covers the island end to end.

Christchurch is the South Island's commercial centre, with strong construction, agribusiness, health and technology employment. Prima's team covers the island end to end — Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Queenstown, Invercargill and the wider South Island — in person, virtually, or a mix of both.
Distance is the practical challenge here. A transition in Invercargill or Queenstown cannot depend on someone being in a Christchurch office, so support is designed to work wherever the person is, without becoming a portal login and a phone number.
Support is tailored around the individual, their goals and the sector they are moving into, at every level from team members through to senior executives. Coaches are matched by industry, seniority and preference, and people keep working with their consultant until they achieve a successful career outcome.
For senior leaders, the next move may be in Christchurch, in Auckland, across the Tasman, or into a board, advisory or consulting path. Prima works one-to-one to clarify direction, sharpen the market story and activate the right networks rather than running a broad and undirected search.
Prima Perform coaches leaders through complexity, growth and change — building the self-awareness, capability and mindset needed to perform under pressure and carry a team through it.
Engagements are aligned with the sponsor before they start and reviewed against those objectives at the end. The work has to translate into better leadership, not just better conversations.
A multi-site or trans-Tasman program can be run to a single standard, with one point of contact and one set of reporting. Prima combines local consultants with unlimited psychological support for employees and their families, Prima's AI Career Suite and EXCELerator “Push” Technology behind the coaching, and real-time reporting for the organisations running the change.
Tell us the numbers, levels, locations and timing, and we will come back with a program design and what it takes to stand it up.
Every Prima program is available in Christchurch — in person, virtually, or a mix of both.
