Springfree Trampolines are a global company that manufacture recreational trampoline products and accessories. The unique Springfree design was invented by Dr. Keith Vivian Alexander, an associate professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand where their NZ HQ is based.

The Christchurch HQ Team has had a number of requirements that have involved Career Steps – deepening mutual understanding and trust over a number of years.



Initially, some of the Senior Leaders were seeking professional growth. To assist them in their development they appointed Career Steps as Executive Coaches. Meeting regularly, the coachees were challenged to identify any gaps in their development and plans were established to target growth in these areas. Some of these close coaching relationships have evolved into "check-ins" to ensure that the required development is still being gained.

There have also been opportunities for Career Steps to be involved in the international recruitment of new team members for the Christchurch Team; the additional goal being that existing team members would be equipped to carry out future recruitment campaigns with added rigour and confidence and without the need for external assistance.

Career Steps have also had the opportunity to facilitate Team Development, with outcomes aimed at ensuring that the Christchurch Team are working at the highest performance levels and living Springfree’s cultural values.



Enduring relationships with the Executive Team and coaches reflect the success of our work with Springfree.
