Recruitment in property is different.
The industry needs many different skills, most skill pools are finite, and it takes an effective specialist to find them.
As a semi-technical profession, advertising and database work can generate numerous responses but miss the skill type and quality you need to build real business strength for tomorrow. Particularly in a rising market, the best candidates are too busy to look at job adverts or register with recruiters. Most are, though, still looking for a good career move latently and will respond well if approached intelligently, in confidence.
These are the approaches we can add. With a well drilled routine in database work and social network advertising we also have the network strength to add a short sharp personal search when needed, tracing extra candidates for the specific job in hand. With the benefit of 20 years in recruitment – and earlier careers in property – our network is deeper, swifter and further reaching, telling us where property and project trends are producing the latest recruitment opportunities and just where new first class candidates might be found.
Even at junior levels this finds real talent for the future and as our market intelligence and research are inbuilt there is no added cost or delay. The results accumulate so we maintain our ability to source the best, from within the database or without, is unique.
We operate as a boutique, though with excellent support in IT, accounting and research. We can put together a well trusted team for large programmes but property recruitment is normally in individual roles or for teams of 3-8 which can be handled better by a single operator if he/she has the job knowledge, contacts, and industry respect to be efficient. These traits occur reliably only at Director level so we don’t employ juniors and most recruitment is done by our Managing Director, Michael Corr. Michael has a 20 year recruitment record in Australia and Asia plus an earlier record as Sydney Managing Director of global property services group DTZ (now Cushman & Wakefield), giving contacts, plus an ability for professional capability assessment, we see as unmatched.
