Employer Recruitment FAQs

What types of roles do you recruit for?
We support permanent, fixed term, interim and contracting roles across accounting and finance, technology, project services, human resources, legal and procurement, as well as executive and senior leadership appointments.

Our consultants work within specialist practice areas, so you partner with someone who understands the roles, skills and environments that matter.
Do you recruit across Melbourne and Brisbane?
Yes. Our teams in Melbourne and Brisbane support organisations of all sizes across both regions.
How do you tailor your approach to our organisation?
We start with a detailed brief to understand your goals, the role and the team environment. This helps us provide market insight, shape the search strategy and identify people who will thrive in your organisation.
Do you work on roles exclusively?
Yes. We typically partner with organisations on an exclusive basis. This allows us to invest fully in the search, provide focused market engagement and deliver a more thoughtful, accountable process.

Timeframes vary depending on the role type.
Permanent and leadership roles often take several weeks. Fixed term and interim roles can move more quickly due to availability and urgency. We work to your timelines and keep communication consistent throughout.

We manage the process from brief through to placement, including market advice, shortlisting, interview coordination, feedback, reference checks and offer support. We keep you updated at each stage.
