Our Story
Antonia Macrides and Paul Burley met working together for one of the largest Global Recruitment firms. Both founding Directors had come from a background of extensive recruitment experience in areas such as Finance, I.T. and Technology Risk and both had created a strong brand in the Strategic Procurement industry. Frustrated by the 'one size fits all' recruitment philosophy used by many large recruitment firms and a sales focus instead of a consultative approach - Paul and Antonia made a decision to create a contemporary recruitment business. A business recognising that Talent Markets are becoming more specialised - and that these markets should be supported with a specialist recruitment service and career management platform. The business began trading in 2005 in partnership with Strategic Procurement Technology specialists BOMweb Pty Ltd.
