Talent & Career Catalyst

• Recruitment Services

• Maintain a pipeline of quality candidates across a range of roles and industries.
• Promote Staffwise services to employers and build long-term partnerships for repeat hiring.
• Support onboarding and post-placement check-ins where appropriate.
• Recruitment database administration and reporting.
• Projects

• Confident in managing relationships with job seekers and employers.
• Excellent Administration and Organisational Skills
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and maintain meticulous records.
• Structured and responsive approach to changing service demands.
