Fast-track your recruitment career with high-volume exposure to top-tier Australian construction, manufacturing, and project staffing sectors.

You will own the end-to-end talent sourcing, screening, and delivery process for high-volume blue-collar and project staffing roles across Australia. Operating in a fast-paced environment with 24–48 hour submission SLAs, you will directly manage candidate pools, drive strict site compliance, and assertively control candidate pipelines to keep placements moving.

What You'll Do

• High-Volume Sourcing: Rapidly search internal databases (Bullhorn), job boards, and social channels to source trades, plant operators, civil, manufacturing, and project management talent.
• Rigorous Screening & Shortlisting: Conduct targeted 15-minute screens to evaluate ticket compliance, experience, pay expectations, and immediate availability under tight SLAs.
• Assertive Candidate Management: Take firm control of candidate relationships, ensuring strict accountability around paperwork submission, site attendance, and shift reliability.
• Compliance & Ticketing Verification: Collect, verify, and track site safety tickets, White Cards, licenses, inductions, and medicals to maintain zero non-compliant starts.
• Candidate Interview Prep: Brief and prepare candidates on client expectations, site conditions, pay rates, and interview performance without unnecessary administrative delay.
• ATS & Data Integrity: Maintain complete, real-time candidate notes and tracking within Bullhorn to power rapid re-engagement for future roles.
• Client & Account Coordination: Collaborate directly with onshore Australian Account Managers to present job-ready shortlists and, as trust builds, manage direct client communication.

Qualifications

• 3–5+ years in high-volume blue-collar, trades, civil, construction, or labor-hire recruitment/resourcing.
• Proficiency with Bullhorn CRM/ATS, Microsoft 365, job boards, and AI-driven sourcing/automation tools.
• Strong grasp of blue-collar trade ticketing, site safety compliances (e.g., White Cards, plant/operator licences, site inductions), and temporary staffing practices; prior experience in Australian recruitment or knowledge of the Australian market is highly advantageous.
• Ability to deliver 3 qualified candidate profiles per role within strict 24–48 hour client turnaround deadlines.
• Highly resilient, assertive, and self-managed with a forward-thinking, high-urgency mindset to thrive in high-volume delivery without being micro-managed.

Remote Work Requirements

• Hardware: Reliable personal laptop or desktop capable of running all role-required software.
• Connectivity: High-speed, stable internet connection with a backup plan for power or connectivity outages.
• Workspace: A dedicated, quiet, and professional home-office environment.
• Mindset: High self-discipline, excellent time management, and a strong track record of thriving in an autonomous remote setup.
