Connecting people with real opportunities in the trades
TradeMatch connects people looking for an apprenticeship with employers across Aotearoa’s trades industry, making it easier to find the right fit.
Our mission is to help more people build lasting careers through practical, hands-on experience. With connections to EarnLearn’s apprenticeship programmes and employer network, TradeMatch is your pathway to hands-on work and training.
1. Connect
Find the right opportunity or the right person.
Employers can advertise apprenticeship and trade roles to reach motivated candidates, while job seekers can browse opportunities across New Zealand and apply directly to businesses.
TradeMatch makes it simple to connect people and employers who are ready to build successful working relationships.

2. Grow your skills or team
TradeMatch is more than just a place to connect.
For employers, it's an opportunity to build a skilled workforce through apprenticeships and industry training.
For trainees, it's the first step towards gaining practical experience, developing valuable skills, and working towards a recognised qualification with EarnLearn.
Together, employers and trainees help build stronger businesses, stronger careers, and a stronger trades industry.

3. Be supported
Support doesn't stop once a connection is made.
EarnLearn provides ongoing guidance throughout the apprenticeship journey, helping employers and trainees navigate training requirements, stay on track, and access the support they need.
Whether it's practical advice, learning support, or connecting with the right people, our team is here to help every step of the way.
