In the past 20 years, I have successfully recruited over 1,000 people. As a dedicated Recruitment Consultant I view myself as an extension of my client's business. I choose clients who I am passionate about recruiting for and take the time to understand their unique business and vision as well as the outcomes they are seeking from their people. This ensures I am able to connect the best candidates with them to help achieve their goals. Over the years, I have established a large network of connections across many industries which enables me to find talent for my clients that they would not be able to find themselves through traditional recruitment methods.

Our aim is simple: to globally bring people, businesses and charities together and help provide access to discrete volunteering opportunities with existing charitable and volunteer organisations and where people can volunteer with their friends. In short, helping make volunteering an easy, fun and social activity. These sorts of activities support anything from child cancer research, to social disadvantage, to environmental causes, to efforts to assist the underprivileged etc etc. They are all important and they all make a difference!

"The Work Shop" was set up as a ground breaking new employment and skills hub to assist the $1.8 billion construction of the Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH). The project, funded by Lend Lease and the Sunshine Coast Council, was a first of its kind in Australia. My role was to establish the recruitment division and contractor relationships onsite from scratch. I incorporated a high quality end-to-end recruitment process based around communication, honesty and adding genuine value to contractors and jobseekers. I established and maintained relationships with Lend Lease staff and contractors, to understand the complex workforce requirements and project timelines to meet demands with their staffing requirments. In addition, I coordinated equal-opportunity programs to assist disadvantaged jobseekers find employment.My role also involved building relationships with key stakeholders, the local employment and skills industry and the local community. This included running events, as well as attending events, forums and networking functions as "The Work Shop" representative. I was also responsible for marketing and PR including development of a newsletter, contractor and jobseeker brochures, social media, promotional items, staff uniforms, campaigns and events. In addition, I set up the recruitment KPIs complex reporting and analysis for management and key stakeholders.
