Our recruitment services

As professional recruiters we avoid a 'cookie-cutter' approach to servicing our clients. We understand the importance of tailoring solutions to ensure the best outcome in an ever-changing market. We work under a variety of engagement models as detailed below, or we tailor a combination of approaches to match both your short and longer-term requirements.

Permanent - View case study

Permanent recruitment is core business to us and our business model works exceptionally well for clients seeking a long term solution. The majority of our candidates are seeking the ideal permanent position and our recruitment methodology focuses heavily on finding the ideal long term fit for clients and candidates.

Permanent - exclusive retained - View case study

Exclusive recruitment produces superior results with a more extensive, dedicated service often at a significantly reduced fee – it is by far the best way to work with professional recruiters.

Although we are very effective ‘contingent’ recruiters, the multiple-agency or ‘contingent’ model is flawed because it results in diminished accountability. It forces recruiters towards a ‘numbers-game’ approach where they work the maximum number of jobs and interview the maximum number of candidates to hit sales targets. The more a recruiter works like this the more service levels drop and the more quality assurance goes out the window.

There are numerous advantages to working exclusively with your recruitment particularly with permanent recruitment. Ask us to show you how working this way produces better results and stronger value for money.

Non-ongoing contracts (Government) - View case study

A popular way to cover our Government clients’ temporary needs is through non-ongoing contracts. It is a very cost-effective way to source temporary staff quickly and efficiently. As a result of HorizonOne’s careful selection processes and strong subject matter expertise, many of our non-ongoing contractors go on to find ongoing work within the organisation.

This method also provides an excellent opportunity for both clients and candidates to ‘try before you buy’, through 3, 6 or 12 month initial contract periods. Non-ongoing contracts provide a fast and efficient way to fill a vacancy with the flexibility of a ‘way out’ if the fit is not ideal.

Hourly rate contracts - View case study

By far the fastest, most hassle-free way to resolve immediate vacancies is through hourly rate contractors. By working as a team, HorizonOne is able to deliver a fast, efficient solution for a wide range of temporary recruiting needs.

Consulting hub - View case study

HorizonOne have an extensive network of independent hourly rate contractors and consultants who work either through their own company or through niche consulting firms on a contract basis. We analyse your business needs and effectively match these to a highly experienced, proven performer.  However, unlike a large consulting firm, independent consultants or those from smaller niche firms have minimal overheads. This means their rates are considerably lower.

We maintain relationships with a virtual bench of over 120 experienced consultant level contractors including ex-CFOs of Commonwealth agencies, policy review specialists, project and change managers, systems accountants (inc SAP), business analysts, financial management specialists, project managers, procurement consultants and governance experts to name a few.

Scribing services - View case study

We offer both traditional and specialist scribe services for APS recruitment processes and interviews, as well as scribes for tendering and procurement, and report/minute writing for meetings, workshops and industry forums.

Our traditional scribing services provide you with a cost-effective, reliable and consistent solution while reducing administrative burdens. Our specialist scribe service can significantly increase your ability to achieve stronger recruitment outcomes. Our specialist scribes, many of whom are former senior public servants, are skilled facilitators able to support, guide and/or convene your recruitment processes or selection panels.
