Ikea is promising a beautiful vision as it enters the New Zealand market. 

The Swedish furniture giant is looking for a "people and culture manager" who will oversee the hiring of 400 staff for its store at Auckland's Sylvia Park. 

Construction is underway at the megastore, which will be opened at the end of next year. 

Ikea New Zealand market manager Johanna Cederlöf told Mike Hosking they want to create better everyday lives, and not just through their products. 

She says this also extends to their partners, the wider community, and all store workers.
