About Optimum Consulting
In a fiercely competitive business environment, there is one constant: Talent is essential to business success. The ability to attract, engage, retain and develop the best talent represents a significant competitive advantage.
Since our first office opened in Brisbane in January 2003, Optimum Consulting has been focused on people and performance in the workplace. Still to this day, at least 90% of our business is repeat business and over 70% of our placed candidates are referred to us.
Our Recruitment Services
Optimum Consulting have been providing temporary and contract staff to clients. Since we’ve opened, we have placed thousands of contract staff and have placed a healthy percentage of these multiple-times. In particular, we are specialists in:
- Executive Search
- Engineering & Construction
- Supply Chain, Logistics, & Manufacturing
- Accounting
- Financial Service
- IT & Digital
- Administration & Office Support
- Professional Services
- Capability Assessments
We passionately believe the strategic use of contract staff and interim talent is becoming more of a differentiator, elevating top performing organisations above the pack. Contracting is also becoming a career choice for many candidates who enjoy the benefits of working on an assignment by assignment basis.
