Overview

The Pacific Employment Support Service (PESS) is a key intervention that has been proven to effectively assist Young Pacific People to achieve sustainable employment and undertake further training to increase their skills and qualifications.

Ministry for Pacific Peoples (MPP) is committed to reducing the number of Young Pacific People aged 15-29 years who are not in employment, education or training (NEET). Through MPP, services are purchased to get the right support to:
(1) assist Young Pacific People to prepare for, make the transition to, and stay in permanent employment; and / or
(2) assist Young Pacific People to prepare for, undertake an approved course of study and achieve associated qualifications aligned to future permanent employment opportunities.

MPP is seeking providers with proven experience in providing successful employment placement and / or training placement services. Providers may propose to deliver either or both services. They should have the ability to provide a service that addresses client’s individual needs and circumstances in order to support clients to move into sustainable employment as quickly as possible and / or complete a qualification in an approved course of study.

The delivery of the PESS programme will be in the Auckland Region and Hamilton from 1 September 2016 to 30 June 2018.
