Atina Poloie

Employment Consultant – Wellington

Qualified & Registered Social Worker

Within Kiwi Can Do, we all have the same goal, and that is to support and improve people’s lives, by upskilling and providing meaningful work. I believe in working smarter not harder and love connecting and building relationships with trusted employers, businesses and other service providers, so working collaboratively is a no-brainer. When one wins, we all win!

I strive to help Kiwis find their niche and to thrive in their chosen career/industry and motivate them to want to do more and be more. A personal goal of mine is to successfully launch and open my partner’s Barbershop Business in early 2023.

My greatest achievement is raising my smart, funny and sassy 5-year-old daughter who can out-TikTok anyone. She loves a boogie. I am proud to have completed my Social Work degree which has helped develop my knowledge and skills when working with people.

In my spare time you’ll find me taking part in CrossFit training and competitions. Give me a heavy barbell any day! Regardless of whether I have had a good or bad day, CrossFit is my way of keeping sane, healthy and fit. I love to compete in CrossFit competitions locally and around NZ.
