KiwiSaaS Academy is an initiative aimed at creating a larger, more capable SaaS talent pool for Aotearoa New Zealand. KiwiSaaS was created under the Digital Technologies Industry Transformation plan (ITP).
We have heard from the NZ SaaS industry that access to talent is one of the biggest challenges they face. Our initial modelling of the problem showed the potential demand for as many as an additional 2,700 SaaS roles between 2022 and 2025 in our targeted role categories. Our solution will need to meet some of this demand by delivering relevant learning that accelerates the transition into these roles.
Our research has identified four non-technical job functions, where our SaaS businesses are struggling for talent with SaaS specific experience, these being:
• Sales
• Marketing
• Product Management
• Customer Success

What we need
We need providers who can provide the following services for one or more of our job functions
• Consult with leading SaaS businesses to determine capability needs for that job function.
• Create the content and delivery mechanism for learning, our research suggests short courses are the best fit for this, though we welcome alternatives.
• Attract, source, enrol, manage, and support the learners throughout the learning experience
• Deliver the learning, showing that learning outcomes have been met, and that you have a high rate of completion among learners
• Establish pathways to work – showing how the learning delivered is converting into job placements
Your proposal may include one or more of our subject areas. If you can demonstrate capability in more than one subject area, we may award a contract in one or more areas.
