Legal entitlement to work

You accept that without an appropriate work or residence visa, you cannot legally work in Australia or New Zealand. It is, therefore, vital to establish your eligibility for a visa at the earliest opportunity.

No guarantee of job

SBW does not endorse or recommend any of the jobs, business or self-employment opportunities advertised on the Site. It is solely your responsibility to evaluate the accuracy and suitability of all jobs and other information provided through the Site or on the Internet generally. In no event will SBW be liable to you or anyone else for any decision made or action taken by you or anyone else in reliance upon any information contained on or omitted from the Site.

SBW gives no guarantee of you finding a job or of the continued availability of any particular job advertised on the Site and will not be liable to you should an advertiser have filled the vacancy at any time prior to removal of the advertisement from the Site. Whilst SBW takes efforts to ensure that jobs advertised are for actual job vacancies, it gives no guarantee to you that every job advertisement represents an actual job vacancy.

No guarantees or endorsements of sites or services we link to or that link to us

SBW provides links and pointers to Internet sites maintained by third parties from its Site. Such linked sites are not under the control of SBW and SBW is not responsible for the contents of any linked site or any link contained in a linked site. SBW is providing these links to you only as a convenience, and the inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by SBW of the linked site. SBW is not responsible for the copyright compliance of any linked site. SBW will not be liable for any damages or loss arising in any way out of or in connection with or incidental to any information or third party service provided by any third party.

No guarantees as to the service

SBW provides no warranty to you that the services generally available through its Site will be uninterrupted or error-free or that defects in the service will be corrected. You also understand that SBW cannot and does not guarantee or warrant to you that files available for downloading through the Site or delivered via electronic mail through the Site will be free of infection or viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code that manifest contaminating or destructive properties. You are responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy your particular requirements for accuracy of data input and output, and for maintaining a means external to the Site for the reconstruction of any lost data.

No guarantees as to security of your information

While SBW takes all due care in ensuring the privacy and integrity of the information you provide, the possibility exists that this information could be unlawfully observed by a third party while in transit over the Internet or while stored on SBW systems or on SBW's Site. SBW disclaims all liability to you to the greatest extent possible pursuant to law should this occur.

To become a registered user, you must provide a password and a login name. You are entirely responsible if you do not maintain the confidentiality of your password and login name. Furthermore, you are entirely responsible for any and all activities that occur under your login name. You may change your password at any time by following instructions.

General provisions

If any part of this agreement is held invalid that part shall be severed from this agreement and the remainder of this agreement will continue to be valid and enforceable.

Termination of this agreement will not end those provisions that are capable of surviving the ending of this agreement.

The laws governing this agreement will be the laws in New Zealand and you irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of its Courts and its Appellate Courts.

Offer of employment

Should you accept an offer of employment from an introduction or contact made via this website, you agree to pay us an Administration Fee of NZ$1295. We reserve the right to further seek a Successful Placement Fee from any employer offering you a job through an introduction made via this website. If we do not receive such a fee (many employers will not pay fees), and you accept the position offered, you agree to also pay us a Successful Placement Fee of between 2 and 4 weeks of your expected gross annual remuneration, dependent on circumstance. Fees must be paid within 7 days of receipt of our invoice.

Certain candidates may be offered and choose to accept additional help to find work through our 10 week intensive Jobsearch Programme, which has a separate fee structure. Details of this Programme are available on request.

Having offered you a job, the company will not keep the offer open indefinitely. If you do not already hold a valid Residence/ Work visa, companies will want the reassurance that your visa will be procured via a Licensed Immigration Advisers/ Registered Migration Agent who is fully conversant with all aspects of immigration policy and so avoid unnecessary delay. We would expect you to retain our own Licensed Advisers/ Registered Migration Agents in this regard.
