“The Nelson Male Voice Choir used Nelson Pulse advertising for just one week and it had a dramatic effect on sales for our Anzac Concert. We sold out the venue for the first time ever. The Pulse advert was by some distance the biggest contributor to our marketing effort and was very economic for the result achieved. Little doubt we will continue to use this very useful tool.”
Steve Barter (Publicity Officer- Nelson Male Voice Choir)

A Better Way to Reach Local Candidates
Large platforms like Seek and Trade Me Jobs can generate high volumes of applicants – but often low quality applications and even low local relevance.
Nelson Pulse is different:
- Local audience only
- Less competition per listing
- Repeated visibility builds familiarity and trust
If you want to reach people already living in Nelson and Tasman, this is one of the most effective ways to do it.

Got Questions?
Here are some of the most common questions about posting a job in Nelson:
Where is the best place to advertise a job vacancy in Nelson/Tasman?
It depends on what you need. Large job boards offer scale, but local channels often deliver better relevance. Nelson Pulse focuses on reaching local candidates directly, with repeated exposure across multiple days – helping your role stand out and stay visible.
How do I post a job in Nelson?
The simplest way is to choose a platform, provide your job details, and publish. With Nelson Pulse, we handle the writing and placement for you – so you can get your job in front of local candidates quickly.
How can I reach local candidates in Nelson/Tasman?
Use channels that are already part of people’s daily routine. Our weekday newsletter reaches thousands of locals consistently, making it easier to connect with people already living and working in the region.
What does it cost to advertise a job in NZ?
Costs vary. Platforms like Seek and Trade Me Jobs typically charge a few hundred dollars per listing. Nelson Pulse offers a similar price point, but with much greater trust and visibility with repeated exposure over multiple days rather than a single listing.
