Fast-track your recruitment career with high-volume exposure to top-tier Australian construction, manufacturing, and project staffing sectors.

You will own the end-to-end talent sourcing, screening, and delivery process for high-volume blue-collar and project staffing roles across Australia. Operating in a fast-paced environment with 24–48 hour submission SLAs, you will directly manage candidate pools, drive strict site compliance, and assertively control candidate pipelines to keep placements moving.

• Rigorous Screening & Shortlisting: Conduct targeted 15-minute screens to evaluate ticket compliance, experience, pay expectations, and immediate availability under tight SLAs.
• Assertive Candidate Management: Take firm control of candidate relationships, ensuring strict accountability around paperwork submission, site attendance, and shift reliability.
• Compliance & Ticketing Verification: Collect, verify, and track site safety tickets, White Cards, licenses, inductions, and medicals to maintain zero non-compliant starts.
• Candidate Interview Prep: Brief and prepare candidates on client expectations, site conditions, pay rates, and interview performance without unnecessary administrative delay.
• ATS & Data Integrity: Maintain complete, real-time candidate notes and tracking within Bullhorn to power rapid re-engagement for future roles.

• Technical Translation / Delivery: Ability to deliver 3 qualified candidate profiles per role within strict 24–48 hour client turnaround deadlines.
• Working Style: Highly resilient, assertive, and self-managed with a forward-thinking, high-urgency mindset to thrive in high-volume delivery without being micro-managed.
