About the Role

Are you a results-driven, sales-focused Recruitment Consultant looking for your next step?

This is an exciting opportunity for a Consultant or Senior Consultant to join our established Brisbane team, running a 360-degree desk within the specialized Health, Safety & Environment (HSE/HSQ) space. You will manage a dedicated portfolio recruiting across commercial construction, civil infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors. Stepping onto a warm desk with active temporary placements, immediate commission potential, and a strong brand presence, you won't just be fulfilling orders—you will actively engage in proactive business development, candidate mapping, and face-to-face site visits.

We warmly welcome experienced 360 recruiters as well as high-volume Blue Collar, Trades & Labor, or Industrial consultants eager to transition into specialized white-collar safety recruitment.

Benefits To You

• Warm Desk Advantage: Step directly onto a warm desk with existing temporary placements and active client touchpoints.

• Comprehensive Training & Support: Ongoing professional development backed by a highly supportive, 8-person team with 40 years of combined tenure at Randstad.

• True Hybrid Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a flexible working model that balances office collaboration with work-from-home options.

• Empowering Culture: Join a close-knit, high-performing team that champions strong effort, a positive attitude, and personal growth.

• Clear Career Advancement: Structured pathways to step up to Senior Consultant levels or leadership roles.

Your Responsibilities

• Driving Business Development: Actively engage in target-led sales activity, networking, and outreach to expand client relationships across construction and manufacturing.

• Site Visits & Client Engagement: Conduct regular face-to-face site visits to build trust, understand client operations, and win specialized job requirements.

• Specialized Candidate Sourcing: Headhunt, map, and pipeline high-quality health and safety advisers and managers across Queensland.

• End-to-End 360° Recruitment: Partner with clients and candidates to deliver seamless recruitment solutions across both temporary and permanent vacancies.

• Pipeline Management: Maintain high standards of administration, database logging, and pipeline tracking.

What We're Looking For

• Recruitment Experience: Prior agency recruitment experience—candidates with a background in blue collar, industrial, trades & labour, or high-volume white collar construction recruitment are strongly encouraged to apply, as these skills transfer seamlessly into safety recruitment.

• Commercial & Proactive Mindset: Comfortable conducting proactive sales activity, site visits, and headhunting rather than relying solely on inbound job flow.

• Strong Effort & Attitude: Highly motivated, resilient, and collaborative individual who values team performance and relationship-building.

• Sector Interest: Openness or background in recruiting across civil/commercial construction or manufacturing environments.

• Logistics & Working Rights: Holds full working rights in Australia and a valid driver's licence for client site visits.
