Youthmix - Unlocking the Potential of New Zealand Youth
"Unlocking, investing, developing and realising the potential of New Zealand's youth"
Youthmix is a non-profit organisation founded by a group of like-minded individuals who are passionate about supporting students, graduates and young professionals across New Zealand.
The members of Youthmix each bring complementary specialities, offering a full suite of skills and expertise. What we share in common however is the desire to inspire fellow young kiwis, and give back to the community.

After nearly a year’s worth of planning and preparation, we are proud to launch our first round of career events:
Our first event - Buy Mentor a Coffee
To all those recent and soon-to-be graduates who are job hunting at the moment: we’ve all been there.
Staring at the 30 cover letters you haven’t started on, clueless about what to expect at interviews, and scratching your head over those applications you’ve never heard back from…
The founding members of Youthmix have once been as lost as you are on their job seeking journeys, and wanted to lend a hand to those who are going through the same.
With this purpose in mind, we’ve gathered over 20 outstanding professionals from various industries, to donate their time in the form of consultation sessions - all to help fresh graduates kick off their career as smoothly as possible.
All you’ll need to contribute is a cup of coffee for the mentor, and a voluntary donation of any amount of your choice.
Our mentors are from:
- AECOM
- Beca
- Aurecon
- Deloitte
- PwC
- KPMG
- Ernst & Young
- Kensington Swan
- Tonkin+Taylor
- BNZ
- Westpac
- China Construction Bank
