Learn what OnArrival is
all about.
It’s about being the best there is in resettlement.
Our reputation with our corporate clients, resettled families, and our staff as being ethical, honest, trustworthy, and professional is paramount to our ongoing success.
We share our friendship and support and continually seek input on ways to inspire one another and build better family relationships.
Where it all began
Our Story.
In 1986, we moved our family from Canada to New Zealand. Who would have anticipated the stress of experiencing a new city, new culture, new job, new home, and new schools all at once?
From that point onwards we committed ourselves to ensure that other people’s resettlement experience was a positive one. Over the years, we have assisted hundreds of individuals and families in adopting New Zealand as their home, as well as helping locals relocate around the country. We understand the emotional impact of your decision to move to a new country, we’ve been in your shoes before. So let us help make your journey as easy as possible.
What means the most to us
Our Vision.
He aha te mea nui o te ao?
(What is the most important thing in the world?)
He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.
(It is people, it is people, it is people.)
Our team at OnArrival embraces this sentiment. What makes us truly unforgettable is our people and the way that we always put people first. All of our Resettlement Consultants have gone through an international move themselves, which allows them to empathise and understand the particular needs and requirements of our clients.
We are proud to have won numerous accolades in New Zealand.
