Hortus Information

Based in Marlborough with operations in Hawke’s Bay and the Bay of Plenty, Hortus provides ethical, seasonal workforce solutions for Aotearoa’s horticulture and viticulture sectors. We specialise in RSE (Recognised Seasonal Employer) labour supply, pastoral care, operational support, and world-class worker accommodation. At our core, we're a people business. Our commitment extends well beyond placing workers in roles—we support every aspect of their journey. From induction and pastoral care through to leadership development and life skills, we create conditions where people can succeed, grow and feel proud of the work they do. Our workforce is known for reliability, consistency, and commitment. Many of our team return season after season, forming strong ties to the regions they support and the growers they work with. We build long-term partnerships with clients who share our values and understand that great outcomes come from investing in people, not just filling roles. As part of Monarch Platform, we’re supported by a network of shared services, strategic expertise, and like-minded businesses. This enables us to scale efficiently and keep our focus where it belongs: growing success for people and industry.
