Australian Rec2Rec placing Recruiters globally🦘🏖🇦🇺

Top 3 Australian Recruitment Agency hiring trends I am seeing right now..... Local Experience & Networks🤝- Do not confuse this with being able to bring your clients over. This is more about knowing who's who in a particular industry. Longevity in roles🕰️- If you have stability in your CV as an agency recruiter it is assumed you have had decent billings and been successful. The opposite is also assumed if you have job hopped. Agencies are avoiding risk at all cost right now so the stability is vital. Account Managers - I am asked daily about Account Manager roles in Recruitment. They are out there but they are verrrrrrrrrrry rare. I only see them in a few types of agencies and that is agencies who have some very large accounts. That could be a big Bank spending millions on Recruitment or a large lucrative Government account. In these cases these roles are going to very experienced Recruiters who have been in market a long time. Alternatively it may be a large labour hire account that has a dedicated Account Manager. Either way, I'd say AM roles make up for about 1% or less of the agency roles in existence in Australia. I have Agency roles coming out of my ears at the moment so if you are looking to make a move, hit me up!

The emphasis on local knowledge and stability is a direct response to the economic climate. Agencies are playing it safe, prioritizing experienced recruiters with deep industry networks. This is a competitive landscape and you need to be on your toes and act fast to grab your next Big opportunity. Lee
