Our brand is deceiving. When you think OfficeMax, you think office and stationery products. And sure, that is what we sell - but we are more solutions focused, more customer centric, and more about supporting and partnering with our customers and suppliers, than what you may assume.

As a distributor and business partner to over 30,000 business customers across Aotearoa, our workplace solutions have to be vast - a near endless shopping aisle if you will. Whether your customer is a scientific marine reserve or an advertising agency or a restaurant - every business across the motu has a need for one, if not all, of the solutions we provide. Opportunities are endless and as a business, we are prepared to evolve.

OfficeMax has built our brand on a reputation and delivery of service you can be proud to represent. We are successful because we are prepared to evolve, adapt, and learn, in order to provide a true partnership - whether it be with our customers and communities, or suppliers and business partners, or most importantly with our people.

We have a focus on growth - for our people, our solutions, and our customers. Our aim is to support the growth of your capabilities by providing learning opportunities that allow you to take accountability for your career direction.

Not only are we people focused, but we are hugely passionate about being accountable for our sustainability footprint and our support to Barnardos 0800 What's Up line, Aotearoa New Zealand's only helpline for children and teenagers. We are also proud to be Government partners of the Ikura project, where we provide free period products to education providers across the country.

By joining OfficeMax, you are choosing a business that prioritises diversity of culture and thought. You will bring your growth mind-set, a lens of curiosity and enjoy the challenge of constant evolution. No one day is the same! - haere mai, come join us!
