We are proud of our long list of blue-chip mining, energy, construction, engineering and manufacturing clients, which we have maintained through our thorough understanding of each client's business objectives and special requirements. We make sure that we match the ideal person to the ideal job, which is why the majority of our contractors are in long-term positions.

Our contractors are our business. We take the time to find out what is important to them, what drives them and what they want to achieve. We give our people honest and sensible advice and work with them to map their ideal career paths.

Ideal experience

John Logie

After 15 years' experience as a civil/structural draftsperson in Australia, Europe and New Zealand, John moved into the recruitment industry, recognising a niche for supplying clients with high quality technical personnel. Some 30 years later, John is firmly established in the industry and acknowledged as a leading provider of technical and operational contractors, who have the ideal experience and skills to hit the ground running and subsequently provide clients with quality outcomes.

Terry Piper

Terry has been involved in the engineering recruitment industry since the early 1970s, after spending some nine years design drafting for consulting engineers and mining companies. It would be fair to say that Terry is one of the longest serving engineering recruiters in Brisbane who still gets a buzz from placing contractors – some of whom he has known since 1978.
