About Ma Te Huruhuru

Ma Te Huruhuru is a "by Māori for Māori" charitable trust based in South Auckland and has been dedicated to empowering taitamariki through culturally grounded, innovative programmes that further develop skills, resilience, and community connection.

Their vision is to achieve holistic wellbeing for taitamariki and their whānau. It embodies the aspiration to create a nurturing, connected, and self-sufficient future generation of Māori leaders who thrive individually for collective good.

The Challenge

As Ma Te Huruhuru grew in numbers, the challenges associated with its growth have become more evident as everything was done manually and through paper forms. This has brought several challenges around document and employee information tracking as well as time consuming admin tasks.

Because of these challenges, it was important for Ma Te Huruhuru to digitalise their people operations to ensure compliance and enhance job satisfaction for the team
