About Impellam Headfirst Group

Impellam Headfirst Group is a global leader in workforce solutions, STEM talent, managed services and HR technology, formed through the coming together of Impellam Group and Headfirst Group. Together, we partner with organisations across the globe to design, mobilise and manage complex contingent and contractor workforce programs.

Within our Talent Management portfolio, our purpose is simple: to build workforce solutions that attract, deploy and support the right talent, safely and compliantly, for the customers who rely on us. We do this by combining deep workforce expertise with strong governance, so that every contingent labour placement at a host employer is set up to succeed from day one.

In Australia, our Talent Management team supports a diverse portfolio of programs across the resources and mining, energy, and government sectors, spanning a wide variation of role types – from technical, trade and operational roles through to specialist and professional contingent labour placed at host employer sites nationally.
