Join our People Solutions team as a Scribing Consultant supporting government recruitment with flexible, casual work.

About HorizonOne

HorizonOne is a professional, consulting led business; we partner closely with our clients to deliver better recruitment outcomes and experiences for all stakeholders involved. The HorizonOne People Solutions team is an award-winning team that provides outsourced recruitment solutions and scribe services to local, state and federal government organisations across Australia.

Our People Solutions team encompasses scribing, large scale recruitment processes and campaigns (Graduate rounds, National bulk rounds etc). You will work alongside a highly experienced team of five staff in our Canberra Office who provide an in-depth induction; ongoing support and guidance; a stringent Quality Assurance framework; and project management oversight of all activities.

The Opportunity

We are expanding our pool of Scribing Consultants with Positive Vetting security clearances in response to growing demand, recently secured contracts, and a strong pipeline of work across our government scribing and Recruitment Process Outsourcing services with secure clients.

Not only will our scribes benefit from the support of a dedicated team, but they will also have access to Avaza (timesheet and project management system); highly reputable clients with a diverse range of work; competitive hourly rates; flexible working conditions ensuring a genuine work/life balance; and regular community building events with our extensive team of scribing consultants.

Our People Solutions team is here to support you and encourage resilience, self-care, and appropriate escalation of concerns.



Our senior staff collectively bring over 30 years of combined experience. This includes supporting you when assignments involve high-pressure or sensitive scenarios. We manage psychosocial impacts and sensitive situations with empathy and professionalism.

The Role

As a HorizonOne Scribe, you will have the opportunity to contribute to a variety of recruitment activities from single processes to bulk rounds, specialist assignments, and large-scale campaigns. Your work plays an important role in delivering professional, transparent, merit based and defensible selection processes.

Depending on the assignment, you may be involved in tasks such as shortlisting, reference checking, transcription of panel interviews, and preparing selection committee reports, among other core scribing services.

The role is casual, and client driven. You will maintain a high duty of care to clients, candidates, and colleagues, ensuring all interactions are professional, respectful, and compliant with HorizonOne policies. You will also adhere to ethical standards and government organisational policies to ensure that recruitment processes are conducted with privacy and confidentiality.
