Supporting Our Community

Home Who We Are Supporting Our Community

There is a strong sense of community amongst the Recruitment Edge team. From fund-raising activities for local charities and hospitals, through to networking events and educational opportunities for local businesses, Recruitment Edge takes pride in the fact that they contribute to the community.

Led by Managing Director, Tania Kapell, the consultants and staff show their support for the community (businesses, individuals and charitable organisations) in a variety of ways.

Supporting Local Businesses

Tania is a long-standing member, and former Chairperson of the Botany Bay Business Enterprise Centre (BB BEC). Through her involvement in the local BB BEC, Tania has helped the group to support local businesses in the formation of strategic alliances, community liaison and cross referral programs.

Recruitment Edge host regular networking functions for local HR and Recruitment Executives. At these events, guest speakers are invited to cover topics of interest to attendees and all guests are encouraged to network and develop professional alliances and support groups.

Supporting Charitable Organisations

In addition to regular giving, Recruitment Edge has hosted charity fund-raisers as part of the HR Business Breakfast series. A charity is chosen as the beneficiary and all proceeds raised by those attending the event - through raffles, silent auctions and other activities, are donated directly to the charity. Examples include:

"Recruitment Edge's success is based on a deep understanding of the business, building trusting relationships with its client as well as the candidates."

"The best aspect of the Recruitment Edge service is the professional nature of the interaction with clients. Staff are always more than happy to help, efficient and don't muck you about with useless candidates. No improvement required! 100/100 compared to other agencies."

Hayley Golden - former HR Advisor - Info and Communications Technology Centre of Excellence

"It's a testament to the quality of Recruitment Edge services that I would not consider using any other recruitment agency; either now or in the future. Their work ethic and selection process is exemplary and this is most certainly reflected in the high quality of candidates while still managing to ensure 'value for money' in a very competitive market."

Robert Dias, Senior Manager, Operations and Logistics, UNSW Global

"Recruitment Edge stands out from the other recruitment firms because they are passionate about what they do and they genuinely care about their client and candidate relationships, they want long-term relationships. This is a truly unique characteristic to find in their industry."

Natalie Banister, People and Culture Manager

"What sets Recruitment Edge apart from other recruiters is that they take the time to understand the client's needs. Zetco has very high standards and Tania and her team have always ensured that prospective candidates are the right fit. Recruitment Edge's professional philosophy includes a strong commitment to workplace health & safety and it is well aligned with Zetco's policies and procedures."
