Important information
|
Confluence operates under the values of community, collaboration, and critical thinking - and so with these in mind and COVID-19 spread continuing worldwide, it is important to us that we do whatever steps we can to help mitigate the risks in our community.
Community spread is now suspected within New Zealand. Therefore Confluence is now CLOSED to ALL coworkers. This aligns with our government national alert level 2, which amongst other things, requires all those who can do so, to work from home which in turn helps maintain physical distancing without significant impact to most coworkers. We will now increase our social contact with our coworkers and wider community through a range of online activities. Follow our Confluence Whanganui Facebook page for more details and also our regular email updates. You can join our mailing list by emailing us. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and are hopeful to return to normal operation as soon as it is safe to do so. Stay safe! Melita & Kevin |
Coworkers
|
Confluence provides desks and meeting rooms for a wide range of local and national businesses or organisations.
Our current coworkers include engineers, educational professionals, instructional designers, filmmakers, government workers, start-up businesses, editors, and copyrighters. We also regularly support the Whanganui Chamber of Commerce, Whanganui Regional Development agency, and local Restorative Practices group with spaces for meetings and events. |
Environment
|
Spacious, cool in summer and warm in winter, with comfortable areas to relax in. Confluence is your pleasant space.
Confluence is a large office space, but the coworking areas are deliberately maintained as a boutique style coworking space with a maximum of 10 coworking desks available at any one time.
The peaceful atmosphere is further enhanced by open spaces, comfortable casual seating, and plenty of potted plants providing greenery all year round. So Confluence offers professional spaces, yet still retains a welcoming home from home feeling for everyone who spends time here. |
Facilities
|
Every coworking desk deal provides access to our professional business equipment, and associated supplies, at no extra cost.
To ensure availability for everyone we have a fair use policy, and also occasionally some benefits may be subject to availability.
|
Much more than just a deskConfluence is proud to provide Whanganui business community with the best available at a price that is affordable. From near gigabit internet to Devil's Cup coffee beans, we pay more for your business, so you don't have to.

Remote worker placement
|
Confluence coworking provides pay-as-you-need professional office space that is private enough to be productive, and social enough to connect locally.
Are you an employer of an organisation based outside of Whanganui with remote staff who live locally? If so, did you know Confluence coworking is a cost effective, safe, social, solution to your flexible working practices. More and more NZ employers are recognising that investing in staff, not buildings, is the future of working. Placing your remote staff members in our coworking space allows them to enjoy the lifestyle of living in our wonderful Whanganui community, often being close to family or owning our more affordable housing. Whilst at the same time you, as their employer, has peace of mind that they will be working in a professionally maintained office space, that is dedicated to businesses, social, and well equipped. |

Confluence is my happy/go to space when I'm in need of a great work environment or facility. Everyone is always so welcoming and helpful and all the facilities I may need are there. You are made to feel like part of it and included rather than just renting a desk space. - Love it! Jo Apr 2017 |
Coworking values
|
Coworking at Confluence is driven principally by our value of collaboration. This is organically experienced amongst coworkers; independent workers, small businesses remote workers, entrepreneurs, start-ups, creatives, and other interested locals.
We're proud to make it known that 100% of the events and happenings at Confluence are fully funded by the income generated from our coworkers and ticketed events. We receive no funding from council or government and are fully independent to choose what we do. Therefore everyone using the facility helps build Whanganui community and this is a value held close to everyone at Confluence.
