Stand out.

Doing an internship or a placement with us is more than filing papers and getting coffee. Experience a real world private practice environment and get hands on experience where history meets innovation, and preservation has a new approach in a uniquely Aotearoa New Zealand context! 

πŸ” What's HPFS Solutions All About? Imagine a place where ancient artefacts, priceless paintings, and dusty manuscripts aren't just relics of the past, but gateways to the future. That's us! We're not your average conservation company; we're the cool cats of conservation, led by Dr. Susanne Rawson. Our mission? To push the needle forward. Help us do it!

πŸ”¬ What Makes Us Unique? Sure, we've got a great facility and top-notch techniques for preserving artefacts, but that's not what sets us apart. It's our passion for pushing boundaries and thinking outside the museum and gallery box! From using cutting-edge thinking to community engaged research, we're all about mixing tradition with innovation.

πŸŽ‰ Why Intern with Us? Alright, picture this: You, surrounded by amazing treasures, but instead of just observing from afar, you're right in the thick of the action! At HPFS Solutions, interns aren't just fetching coffee (although, we do love a good cuppa), they're diving headfirst into real projects, learning from the best in the biz, and making a tangible impact on history itself.

🌟 What Can You Expect? Get ready to roll up your sleeves and get hands-on with preservation like never before! Whether you're assisting in delicate artifact restoration, brainstorming innovative exhibition ideas, or even dabbling in some high-tech 3D scanning, every day at HPFS Solutions is a new adventure. Oh, and did we mention the occasional behind-the-scenes tour of some of the coolest museums and galleries in town? Yeah, we've got connections! Also, we get what it’s like to be in a new place. We can help you find accomodation (often at a much reduced rate). Check out our placement brief here for more details. While we don’t offer a stipend at this time, there is an opportunity for paid work.

πŸ‘ What do we need from you? New Zealand is the most beautiful country in the world and we are pretty lucky to get to be here. We do have some requirements though for you to work here too:

  • Ability to speak and write fluent English.

  • Enrolled in a university programme or intending to enrol as part of a pre-programme internship.

  • If you are not a NZ resident or citizen, have the ability to secure a NZ student visa.

πŸš€ How to Apply? So, you're ready to embark on this epic journey with us? Awesome! Just shoot us a message with your resume and a brief spiel about why you're the perfect fit for HPFS Solutions. Bonus points if you can wow us with your creative flair and passion for preserving the past while shaping the future!
