About Us

Psych-Recruitment was established in 2002 to recruit psychologists to New Zealand due to local skill shortages. Our unique approach combines psychologists' knowledge and recruitment expertise, giving us a distinct advantage in understanding the local psychological practice, service delivery, and immigration requirements. We specialise in delivering our services online and focus on providing recruitment solutions for the criminal justice,  healthcare, education and child protection sectors.

The demand for psychologists' skills in certain specialities exceeds the locally available workforce. This creates an excellent opportunity for overseas psychologists with the required skills and motivation to immigrate to New Zealand. Our international recruitment services aim to match psychologists with suitable employers and locations using proven processes that ensure the best fit. 

If you're interested in working abroad, we invite you to explore our  job profiles to see if you meet the required qualifications, and then register your interest.  We are confident you will find our services helpful, fair, and professional.


Employers regularly encounter challenges in finding qualified psychologists to fill job openings. It is a time-consuming and challenging process. However, we have a solution for you. We provide a talent pool of pre-screened candidates. Our long-term clients benefit from specific talent pipelines developed to match their needs and requirements. If you want to learn more, please visit our  employer's webpage.

​​Meet Doug McCall


Kia ora, my name is Doug McCall, and I am the founder of Psych-Recruitment. With a background as a clinical psychologist since 1995, I bring extensive clinical and managerial expertise from public services, particularly in child protection, youth justice, and corrective services. Leading teams of psychologists has given me a passion for innovative service development, workforce solutions, and effective strategies to overcome staffing shortages.

At Psych-Recruitment, I am driven to connect exceptional psychologists with forward-thinking organisations, empowering individuals, groups, and communities through expert care. I take pride in supporting the profession’s growth, enabling organisations to secure talented staff and helping psychologists advance their careers in their chosen specialties.

As a New Zealand company,  Psych-Recuitment is committed to guiding you through every step of your professional and immigration journey. Drawing on an in-depth knowledge of New Zealand’s diverse regions, we help you discover the best locations to match your personal and career aspirations.
