You do not join Oneworld, but an airline ffp.
Living in UK BA is a good starting point. BA is a member of the Oneworld alliance

But with BAEC you cannot get ff mikes from your Air NZ (Star Alliance) flight.
You will need to join a Star Airline. Note that some cheap Air NZ tickets are nil earning with other Star airlines and some times with Air NZ (no ff miles/points)

FFP's can be very different
