We are beyond proud to announce that Franklin Smith has been named a finalist in both Deloitte’s Fast 50 and Master of Growth Awards for 2025 – marking the second consecutive year we’ve earned this recognition. Together, they highlight some of the most driven, forward-thinking businesses across Aotearoa – and we’re incredibly proud to be among them again this year.
From one vision to an international force
Franklin Smith began with one person and a clear vision: to do recruitment better. Eleven years on, that vision has grown into an international success story, one powered by people, relationships and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Being recognised in both categories, and for the second year in a row, is an achievement that means so much to us. It’s not just about growth in numbers; it’s about the growth of our people, our culture and the trust we’ve built with our clients and candidates along the way.
It Takes a Team
We say it often, but we truly mean it – our people are everything. Every single person at Franklin Smith has played a part in this achievement. It’s the collective effort, energy and commitment from our team that has taken us from a one-person dream to one of New Zealand’s fastest growing and most respected recruitment businesses. Our growth is a testament to our incredible team of people who believe in the mission, support one another, and push us forward every single day.
Looking Ahead
We can’t wait to celebrate with all the other incredible finalists at the Deloitte Fast 50 event in November! A huge thank you to our amazing team, clients, and community for being part of the journey.
