Our Australian and New Zealand operations are growing fast, bringing together great businesses including All Energy Contracting (AEC), BAM, Pilecom and Volta under one group.

- Build strong working relationships with hiring managers, understanding their needs as projects ramp up.
- Give hiring managers clear advice and regular updates, helping them make timely, informed decisions.




- Keep candidates informed and engaged through explicit communication, timely feedback and a positive experience from first contact through to onboarding.
- Keep candidate and vacancy information accurate and up to date, so progress is always visible.

What You’ll Bring

- Experience recruiting trade and labour talent at volume, ideally within construction, infrastructure, energy or a related sector.
- Strong sourcing capability and a track record of engaging candidates in tight, competitive labour markets.
- The ability to manage a high number of live vacancies at once, staying organised and on top of priorities.
- A commitment to a positive candidate and hiring manager experience, with clear communication and consistent follow-through.

Why Join OCU Group
