As a UK Citizen, how do I sell shares on NZX?

Question

I'm a UK citizen. Some time ago, I worked for a company based in New Zealand. The company went public on NZX and I ended up with some shares.

I have never been to New Zealand and don't have any bank accounts, etc. outside of the UK. I've looked at some UK based trading platforms/stock brokers, but they don't seem to offer the ability to trade shares listed on NZX.

How would I go about selling these shares? Also, would I be liable to pay tax in NZ?

Unfortunately the UK taxes you on "world income". So even if you don't pay tax in NZ, the uk as a tax resident will be asking for their cut.

Computershare nz has a share selling service for non nz residents. Buying the shares seems impossible though
