"1881 were a huge help getting triangular accreditation for our hospitality businesses in Akaroa, and they also placed interns with us at Ma Maison Akaroa for the full six months of our high season.
The whole process was really smooth and straightforward. They sent us pre-vetted applicants with video interviews, we picked the ones we liked, and they arrived just a few short weeks later. The candidates have all been diligent, focused, well-trained, and ready to get stuck in and work hard.
We've already decided to make intern sponsorship through 1881 a regular part of our seasonal recruiting. It's saved us so much time and hassle compared to our usual advertising, interviewing, and onboarding, plus it gives us much better security around staff retention. That's a game-changer when you're flat out during peak periods and don't have to be filling positions on the fly."

"We have worked closely with 1881 Global across multiple areas of our business and have consistently found them to be an outstanding partner.
They have successfully assisted us in obtaining accreditation for two of our businesses, managing the process efficiently and with a high level of professionalism. In addition, they have been instrumental in sourcing and securing visas for a number of highly skilled staff who have become valuable members of our team.
Beyond this, 1881 Global continues to provide ongoing support to our existing staff with any visa-related queries, always responding promptly and with clear, practical advice.
Their service is not only highly effective but also incredibly responsive. The team is approachable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great to deal with, which makes a significant difference in what can often be a complex area.
We would not hesitate to highly recommend 1881 Global to any business seeking reliable and efficient immigration and accreditation support."
