Nimbly is a transparent platform that has a rating and review system, so you can see previous reviews of Nimblers and Nimblers can also see reviews on employers.

Nimbly is open 24/7 so you can post an add at any time of the day and communicate directly with the Nimblers. This means that you can fill shifts quickly and easily and negotiate pay rates directly with the Nimbler. Our badge system lets you see if the Nimbler has been recently drug checked, reference checked, criminal checked, license checked, all the things that traditional agencies may do. Once the Nimbler is hired, we take care of the admin, with regards to paying the Nimbler. You just need to pay the invoice we send you.

Don’t have time to post jobs and pick people? No problems, just give us a call/email and we can do the leg work for you. There is an additional 5% charge for this service. Just tell us what, when and where you need people and we will do the work.

Nimbly is a pay as you go service and there are no upfront fees. You do not have to pay to register to use the service and you do not have to pay to post a job. We charge 18% of the staff pay (which includes the hourly rate that you agree upon with the Nimbler + Kiwisaver 3% + holiday pay 8%)

Your feedback helps build trust and keep Nimblers motivated and engaged on their job as they try to maintain a high rating to give them better access to other shifts. It also enables you to see Nimblers’ previous performances and in this way helping us keep building a high quality and transparent service. Please remember, any feedback you provide must not be offensive, defamatory or retaliatory language or content. Keep it constructive, considerate and clean.

Employees need downtime to rest, eat and take care of personal tasks. They get paid during rest breaks, but not during meal breaks. Time out helps your people stay focused during their working day, and prevents overtiredness. Here's a link to Employment NZ with more information: Minimum rest and meal breaks for employees

You will need to post separate jobs for the different roles you need to fulfil. For example, if you need a waitress and a waiting staff, you will have to create one job post for the waitress and a another one for the reception staff.
