Great with people? Curious about business and technology? Looking for a career where relationships genuinely matter? You may not have considered a career in specialist recruitment and search before. That’s okay.
We’re looking for someone with the right foundations who we can train and develop into one of our go-to Technology Recruiters & Talent Advisors.
You might currently work in customer success, account management, technology, professional services, consulting, sales, marketing, hospitality or another role where your success depends on understanding people, communicating well and delivering a human centred experience.
A different kind of recruitment career
This role requires much more than the traditional perception of simply posting a job advert and sending resumes. It requires curiosity, good judgement of people, quality research, strong communication and a stubborn persistence to solve a problem. Most importantly, the ability to build genuine relationships with people. It’s the start of recruitment done properly.
What you'll be doing?
- Every day is different, and most of it is spent talking to people.
- You’ll sit down with hiring managers to understand their business, their team and the problem they’re trying to solve.
- You’ll run those meetings rather than take notes in them, and there will be days when your job is to tell a client their brief needs to change.
- You’ll call people who weren’t expecting to hear from you, and the first ninety seconds will decide how the conversation goes. Most of the best technology people in Perth aren’t looking for a job. Your work is to give them a reason to listen, then a reason to move.
- You’ll own the whole process, from taking the brief through to the day someone starts. That means several searches running at once, with research, shortlists, interviews and offers all moving at different speeds. Priorities shift during the day and you’ll shift with them.
- You’ll also be the person who keeps it all straight. Every conversation written up in our CRM. Every candidate called back on the day you said you would. Every reference checked properly.
In this business the detail is the relationship, so getting it right counts as much as getting it done.
- Over time you’ll become someone both clients and candidates trust. We’ll teach you the modern way recruitment is done properly. You just need to bring the right foundations.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Enjoys people, and takes a genuine interest in what makes them and their businesses tick. You listen, ask good questions, communicate confidently and enjoy solving problems
- Is comfortable starting the conversation. You’ll pick up the phone to someone you’ve never met, hold your own with a senior hiring manager and put a view forward when you think they’ve got it wrong
- Can work at a pace without dropping your standards. You can plan and carry several things at once and still remember what you promised, and when
- Is curious and keen to learn, with the initiative to take ownership and the resilience to keep going when things get difficult. Above all, you’ll care about doing a good job and take pride in doing things properly
- Ideally has a university degree or post high school formal education and certifications
- Brings a passion and experience in technology, customer success, professional services, account management, consulting or another relationship-based setting.
What will you'll learn?
- We’ll teach you how to become a professional recruiter and search consultant. That includes learning what a hiring manager really needs, and how to find and assess the people who can do the job.
- You’ll learn how to open a conversation with someone who has no reason to take your call, and how to influence a hiring decision once you’ve earned the right to.
- Along the way you’ll build strong commercial and market awareness,
learn how technology markets work and develop the confidence to build trusted professional relationships.
- The goal is for you to become a trusted advisor to hiring managers and technology professionals across Perth’s technology community. Do it well and the people who matter in that community will know your name.
