In 2014 I was with my family on a snow holiday at Thredbo when my CEO called all the State Managers to say our company was going into liquidation. The company, which I had spent 5 years of hard work building up, literally closed its doors overnight. With my team left in the lurch I made the dash back to the Gold Coast to see what could be done to support the clients and candidates we had worked so hard to maintain. It was on the way back home that Omni Recruit was born.
We started in a small office on the Gold Coast with me, 2 other staff members, a handful of loyal clients and candidates along for the ride. Fast forward 4 years and Omni has developed into a formidable recruitment company with offices on the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide. We have formed strategic partnerships with trusted recruitment agencies across Australia to offer our clients national coverage in recruitment and a unique management process. We have diversified across many different sectors to recruit in and service both temporary and permanent recruitment.
Underpinning the success at Omni is my fantastic team of recruitment consultants, account managers and our support team who deliver exceptional service to our clients and candidates. As a family we’ve welcomed 4 Omni babies so far, with 3 of our staff returning after maternity leave, and half of our workforce currently having flexible work arrangements to suit their work / life balance.
It hasn’t always been an easy road, but the challenges we faced have been an invaluable learning experience which in turn has helped us understand those same challenges our clients face. Omni offers you a wealth of experience, with 2018 seeing me clock up 21 years in the recruitment industry and admittedly a few more grey hairs then when I first started.
Omni has seen my dream of working with the best people and the best clients become reality.
