OUR COMPANY
We are a leading specialist agribusiness recruiting company and have been in this business for over 40 years. Our people have a background in the agriculture and/or agrifood industries. We have offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Newcastle. Agribusiness has been a key growth sector for Australia and the industry is expected to continue to perform well for the foreseeable future. The roughly 125,000 businesses in the sector generate revenue of $207 billion per year and have experienced strong growth (3-4% per annum) in the past five years. Australia faces critical skills shortages in the agricultural and agribusiness sector. This threatens the ability of the agricultural sector to continue to grow and meet the increasing global demand for food and fibre. Finding skilled people for agribusiness roles is therefore a challenging and exciting career. We are now searching for multiple new consultants to join our business.

At the start, you will have a business development phase to identify clients and then work with them so that you understand their people requirements. You will then determine the best method to find the right people for the various roles and screen and interview all candidates, determine salary packaging and then present suitable candidates to the clients. The quality of your work is of paramount importance, all candidates require respectful and timely feedback on their application, and clients require progress reports. You will be responsible for following up on all placements to ensure effective onboarding of candidates and client satisfaction.
