I can’t tell you how many clients say that to me, and how many in fact ring up and say first up “hello my name is Steve, I hate recruiters and I have never had any success with them … but I have been given your name and told you are different …”

That’s what I love. I prefer to be called a people placer or networker from hell or even Queen of the creative in Melbourne!! ANYTHING but a recruiter.

I’ve been working in the industry for over 20 years as a photographer, then in new business in Advertising and Graphic Design and designing portfolios and consulting with creatives. I’ve also taught at a university level for years and sit on course advisory and a graduate employment boards.

I can talk with a mouthful of marbles underwater; go to the opening of an envelope and love people.

I worked in London in the late 80s early 90s as a door bitch in a London nightclub in Chelsea that taught me a lot about human nature, and about being able to judge a personality very quickly.

These skill sets set me apart from others.
