Regional & Special Interest Networks

HR professionals in New Zealand connect through HRNZ networks, local events, and online communities. HRNZ Regional Networks bring people together locally, while our Special Interest Networks connect members around key topics like health and safety. 

The Future Workplace Forum and PD courses also provide networking opportunities, helping professionals share ideas, solve problems, and build long-lasting professional relationships across the New Zealand HR community.

HRNZ networks are professional communities that bring HR members together across New Zealand. Run by members for members, they offer in-person and online opportunities to connect, share knowledge, and attend specialist events. Whether for local support or topic-specific learning, HRNZ networks help you grow your expertise and strengthen your professional relationships. 

Regional Networks focus on local connections, offering events for HR professionals in your area. Special Interest Networks connect members nationwide around specific HR topics. Both help you learn, share ideas, and build networks, but Regional Networks focus on local relationships while Special Interest Networks deepen professional expertise.

Regional Networks are groups run by local committees who plan events, promote networking, support Student Ambassadors, and bring members together in their area. 

Regional Ambassadors are individual HRNZ members who take on a leadership role within their region, host local networking events and promote HRNZ services. Regional Ambassadors provide support in areas where Regional Network events are not offered.
