Recruitment Consultant

WHO ARE WE?We could tell you all about our story, how we were founded in 1948 and how we’re the largest specialised staffing agency in the world, and then take you on a long journey, but we would rather tell you about who we are today.So then, who are we?Our Brisbane office is made up of a close-knit group of people who all bring differing strengths and ideas; we believe that everyone has a voice and a say in the direction of the business, and what we’re trying to achieve. We have a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion with several people in our branch representing us across APAC in our community ensuring that our thoughts and ideas are heard.Some of us had other careers before recruitment, including retail sales, legal, shipping, accounting, real estate, government, ASX listed regional manager, and call centre.We come from different backgrounds in terms of education as well as coming from differing parts of the world, and that makes us stronger together. But what we all have in common is our desire to work in a team environment where we value collaboration and celebrate each other’s successes as if they were our own, one where we work hard but also genuinely enjoy each other’s company. We’re also ambitious; not just as individuals but also as a team. We take pride in our ethical approach and we work hard to provide an outstanding service to our clients and candidates alike. We love telling someone that they got the job – thankfully, we get to say that a lot.It sounds great, doesn’t it? Too good to be true? Well let’s address some concerns that we often hear…Isn’t recruitment all about hitting KPI’s?Yes, and no. If you’re inexperienced, then based on your own individual motivations and goals, we’ll guide you to create some targets for you to achieve success. That means picking up the phone and speaking with people. If you’re not prepared to do that then you should probably stop reading now. We’re a relationship, customer focused driven business and you can only build your business by speaking with people.We’ll give you the tools, the training, and the support to build your own business within our business.However, if you’re an experienced recruiter then we’ll sit with you to discuss what you’re looking to achieve in the first few months, and we’ll hold you accountable to that; after all, you’ll back yourself to deliver.It’s too rigid, you’re too big. I can’t be myself, can I?We want different personalities, different backgrounds; people with fresh ideas and creative thoughts.In terms of our methodology, we have some tried and tested best practices that you’ll find many of our competitors have attempted to adopt over the years. We’ll train you on how to deliver these and help you get up and running as quickly as possible, but we want your personality to shine through. Your internal brand is just as important as your external brand; therefore, we want you to be yourself.Isn’t recruitment too salesy?This job does involve sales. You must have the ambition to build your business, and part of the process will be speaking with people that you’ve never spoken to before. So, whilst you need to be comfortable with the sales aspect, you’ll also need to be inquisitive, be able to develop relationships, as well be intellectually and socially capable of holding a conversation with people who operate at all levels of a business.WHO ARE YOU?Well, for a start, you’re a team player. That’s a non-negotiable for us.You might be an experienced recruiter looking for a change in environment, or someone with a career behind them that is looking for something new. We’re keen to hear from people with varying backgrounds.You’ll be capable of speaking with, and building relationships with, a myriad of people from different backgrounds.You will be ethical in your approach, be honest and foster trust.We’d also like you to have ambition. This is not a position for someone who just wants to settle. We want people who want to be a success personally, as well as share our group success.We’re looking for someone who wants a career, not just a job. We’re not looking for people just to fill seats, we want people who are eager to learn who have a great attitude.We have opportunities in various roles across Permanent and Contract desks. Some positions are purely client facing, some are working exclusively with candidates, and some offer a mix of both.We also like to promote from within which means your next position after this one is very likely to still be with us.WHAT’S ON OFFER?Flexibility: we understand that life goes on outside of the officeEarly finish on FridayWorking with an experienced leadership team who will support and mentor you to build your careerExcellent on-going training to help you achieve successWellbeing initiatives for all employeesRegular social eventsIndustry-leading technologyAn attractive salary with generous bonus schemesPotential to work in other offices; nationally and internationallyJob reference : JR-234125
