Born of a desire to deliver above industry standard quality service to our external stakeholders while maintaining a firm commitment to our individual and company values, ASR Recruitment was launched in 2018 with a mission to challenge the large, profit-driven recruitment firms that dominate the local market.
Specialising in Technology & Digital, Marketing and Communications, Accounting & Finance, Construction, Human Resources, Engineering, Safety, Procurement, Transport & Logistics, Manufacturing, Legal & Risk, Administration & Customer Service, we've strategically built a team with strong reputations both in the local Newcastle market and across Australia.
Our Consultants are experts in their field and have built extensive networks and genuine trusted relationships with candidates. Their candidate care, sound career advice and passion for delivery to their clients ensure extensive coverage of the local market and an ability to attract the right people to your business.
Attracting the best talent in the local Newcastle market requires a diverse sourcing strategy that traditional recruitment methods cannot produce alone. The majority of our successful placements come from our own established networks, referrals, networking, meet-ups, sourcing across social media and online channels where professionals collaborate.
We approach every recruitment process with our values held foremost, authenticity in the way we communicate and represent talent to you, integrity in all our dealings, and a commitment to focusing on the best outcome for our talent and our clients.
