Toby received 13 candidate reviews in a week and all of them glowing. At some point these stop being luck and starts being just how Toby works.

Lisa's review captures the way Toby works so well. Responsive, thoughtful, professional, and honest enough to help her decide whether a role was actually right for her.

We know how lucky we are to have Toby looking after our clients and temporary candidates and so do they 💙

Ask almost anyone about their worst recruitment experience and you’ll hear the same thing: “I just never heard back.”

Candidates wonder whether their application went into a black hole. Clients chase for shortlists, feedback and timelines. Both end up feeling like the last to know.

We think keeping people informed is the bare minimum, and our candidates and clients agree. Over the past year, our permanent recruitment team has been rated:

→ 99% by candidates for communication and transparency throughout
→ 98% by clients for providing regular updates

Good news, bad news or “still waiting to hear”, you’ll hear it from us.

Shout out to the good folk over at Recruiter Insider for giving us up to date data to keep us in check.

The Christmas tree is already up in our building foyer, and the pumpkins haven’t even made an appearance yet. It might feel early, but the end-of-year scramble starts now.

We all know the feeling: the leave is booked, but the work hasn’t gone anywhere. This year, give your team the gift of cover.

Our temps and contractors step in so work keeps moving while your people actually switch off. Whether it’s a few days between Christmas and New Year or cover for most of January, the earlier we know, the better the match.

✔ Your temp is briefed and ready before anyone signs off
✔ Handovers happen properly, not on the last afternoon
✔ Your team comes back to an inbox that’s been looked after

Call us on (02) 9220 3400 and we’ll get it sorted, so the only thing you have to worry about over the break is the pavlova.

There’s a term for it. Job hugging: staying put out of caution, not commitment.

With the market softer and AI reshaping roles, great people are choosing certainty over change. So your job ad is reaching fewer of the candidates you want.

They haven’t stopped listening though. They’re just more selective about who they listen to.

That’s why we invest in the conversations: checking in, listening and giving honest advice, often years before the right role comes along.

Good talent hasn’t disappeared. It’s just gone quiet.

When a candidate tells you they'll miss the weekly catch-ups with their recruiter, you know something has gone right.

Jenny's story started with a temp placement and ended with her signing on permanently. Proof that great temp recruitment is about staying close long after the assignment starts.

Huge congratulations to Jenny and a well-deserved shoutout to Toby, Megan, and Lizzy. 👏

🏆 Employee of the Year - Rupert Turner

A huge congratulations to Rupert, our inaugural recipient of our Employee of the Year award.

Rupert has had an outstanding year, being named Employee of the Quarter in both Q2 and Q3, while making a strong commercial impact through the client relationships he’s built and the results he consistently delivers.

He’s dependable, switched-on and always willing to jump in wherever needed sharing knowledge, supporting the wider team and keeping a close eye on what’s happening across the business.

With 7 nominations across the year and recognition in 3 of 4 quarters, Rupert has made a huge impact this year.

Congratulations Rupert, a thoroughly deserved first-ever Employee of the Year! 🎉

Consistency Award - Megan Wood

A huge congratulations to Megan Wood, the inaugural recipient of our Consistency Award.

Megan has been a steady, reliable presence throughout the year, consistently delivering great work and being someone her colleagues know they can count on.

She brings a calm, professional approach to every client and candidate interaction, is always willing to lend a hand and is simply a joy to work with.

With 7 nominations across the year spread consistently across Q1, Q2 and Q3, this award recognises exactly that - showing up, delivering and being someone the team can rely on, every time.

Congratulations, Megan — so well deserved! 🎉

Associations run like small businesses with a membership base.

In a single year, the same organisation might recruit a Member Services Officer, a Finance Manager, a Digital Systems Lead and a Policy Adviser.

Very few recruiters cover all four well.

At Cox Purtell, our association specialists work alongside our Technology and Government teams. So when an association needs a hard to find technical or government facing hire, it gets a specialist in that market plus a consultant who already understands how associations work.

Permanent roles: Sophie Kelly & Becky Gibson
Temp and contract: Zoe Rogers

Soundtrack we wanted: "Working Class Man" by Jimmy Barnes 🎸
Soundtrack our budget approved: an old-timey piano 🎹

Either way, in 1856, a group of Melbourne stonemasons downed tools and won the right to an eight-hour workday with better entitlements. And so we celebrate working less, by working less on Labour Day each year.

Cheers to the stonemasons, and happy Labour Day from us 🛠️
