KPI Partners

KPI Partners is a boutique recruitment firm focused exclusively on the financial services sector. Founded and led by senior partners, the company specialises in delivering high-impact talent to insurers, advisory firms, lenders, and investment businesses across New Zealand and Australia. Rather than operating transactionally, KPI Partners positions itself as a commercial partner, understanding each client's business objectives and long-term growth strategy to ensure alignment on every placement.

The firm's core specialisations span General Insurance and Broking, Life and Health Risk Advice, Wealth and Investment Management, Non-Bank and Lending, Governance Risk and Compliance, and Executive Search. KPI Partners actively maps the financial services market and engages talent who are not actively seeking new roles, combining research-led market intelligence with direct engagement to identify high-performing individuals suited to each client's culture and performance requirements.

Operating from Auckland, KPI Partners serves clients throughout New Zealand and Australia. The company deliberately limits its client volume to ensure depth, discretion, and quality of delivery. Every engagement is led directly by a senior consultant from briefing through to placement, and the firm offers flexible engagement models including retained, exclusive, project-based, and selective contingency arrangements tailored to each client's hiring strategy.
