Earthquake Update - Wellington Office Still Closed
We just wanted to give you a brief update following Sunday’s magnitude 7.5 earthquake near Hanmer Springs, and the aftershocks which followed it.
Our thoughts and best wishes go out to all of those affected by the quakes. We were lucky enough to be able to confirm that all of our staff and their families were well - if a bit shaken up - by what had happened. We hope you were similarly fortunate.

Impact on Wellington office
However, we weren’t quite as lucky with our Wellington office. Following advice
from both Wellington City Council and Civil Defence, we closed our office in
the Wellington CBD on Monday. We have asked our staff to stay away from the CBD
and to not attend our office until the building has been properly assessed by
an engineer, which is currently underway.
Business-as-usual
Despite this disruption, it is business-as-usual. We have teams operating as
normal across the country and our Wellington staff, via remote access to our
files and systems, are working from home. This means that we're able to carry
out all of our recruitment functions as usual and without interruption,
ensuring that the quakes won’t in anyway effect the assignments we are working
on.
Get in touch
To contact our Wellington team please feel free to give us a call on our mobiles,
these numbers are available on our contact page here: www.ocg.co.nz
We’ll also be regularly updating our website and social media, including our
LinkedIn page, so keep an eye out for further info.
