NZ HR Awards

Celebrating exceptional HR practice

The NZ HR Awards, organised by HRNZ, honour excellence and outstanding achievement across New Zealand’s HR community

On Thursday, 26 March 2026, we invite you to join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating exceptional HR practice and innovation in workforce development. This prestigious awards dinner, held at the new New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC) in Auckland, recognises the leaders and teams setting new benchmarks and shaping the future of HR in Aotearoa.

Presented by Human Resources New Zealand (HRNZ), and in partnership with AMP, the Awards offer an inspiring platform for HR professionals and organisations to reflect on their achievements and the impact of their work. The process shines a spotlight on the significant contribution HR makes to organisational success nationwide.

More than an awards ceremony, the NZ HR Awards are a celebration of talent, a chance to connect with peers, and an opportunity to showcase the passion, expertise, and leadership that define our profession.
