Client Testimonials
Kirsty Garrett
Doctors on Demand Australia - CEO
Moving to Brisbane in 2005, I needed a business partner that understood the market and importantly understood candidates and how they would fit into my plans for growth at a critical time for the business. I was impressed by Rachael, she looked at people for who they were and how they might help and fit into the busy office environment. I have hired Business Development Managers, Account Executives as well as Technical Architects through Rachael and I am delighted we are still in contact over fifteen years after we first met and will be for some time to come.
Chris Ryan
Market Development Manager - RedEye Apps
I have been both a candidate and a client of Rachael. I was that impressed by her ability to place me in the right role for me, that when I had the opportunity to employ staff, I just had to go through her company.
She simply gets the need for the correct mix all aspects of an individual to match the role, the manager and the company overall to give the best chance for both parties to succeed. I recommend her strongly for anyone looking to hire or looking for a role.
Mary Finnimore

Ralph Hunt
VP Global Sales Operations - XAPT
Over the many years I have known Rachael she has helped me fill a variety of roles that include administrative, technical and sales and marketing, of varying levels of seniority. The size of the engagement has varied from seeking a single person to fill a new role, to hiring a whole new team. Some have been quick to fill but others have taken more time to find the right person for the role. In all these engagements Rachael has been the consummate professional, and a pleasure to work with. Her experience and knowledge of the IT industry means that she is more of a trusted advisor than a facilitator. I look forward to continuing to work with her going forward.

Ross Hamilton
Ikara Group - WA General Manager
I have known Rachael for 16 years and could not speak more highly of her professional, caring, friendly demeanour. I first met Rachael in 2004 when I was asked to move and rebuild a systems integration business in Queensland. I interviewed many recruitments companies and instantly liked Rachael and selected her to help start the journey. Culture was the key to driving momentum and the candidates Rachael surfaced were always aligned to my requirements which was unique in my experience. She is practical, intelligent and has great communication skills that balances the needs of the candidate and the company resulting in longevity for both parties. Recently I have joined a start-up and am once again using Rachael to drive some amazing talent that are kicking many goals. I will always consider her as part of my team and I highly recommend if you need to get the hire executed first time, call Rachael.
Terry Leister
Principal - Leister Consulting
Like many senior executives, my first experience of recruitment consultants was early in my career when seeking advancement. Also, like many of my peers, I quickly developed a disdain and jaundiced view of many individuals who called themselves recruitment consultants. All of that was before I met Rachael Griffin who changed my perception of Recruiters by the professional and measured way she did business. In my capacity as General Manager for QLD, NT & PNG at Pronto Software Limited, Rachael was my go-to person when I needed key staff who would fit in with our culture. She listened to what we had to say, added value to the development of the brief by suggesting things we had not considered and always took a holistic view on each placement would fit in with the overall strategy we had developed. As well as being a valued contractor, Rachael became a trusted advisor who I have maintained a professional relationship with over almost 20 years. I have no hesitation in recommending her and wish her every success for the future.
