3 days ago

City of Melbourne, Australia ClearCompany Full time

Ready to do recruitment differently?

This is a senior, hands‑on role for someone who wants ownership, flexibility, and the chance to work directly with a founder, shaping how a respected boutique brand grows.

xtend recruitment is a specialist search firm partnering with leading Technology, Cloud, Cyber, SaaS, Data, and Digital organisations across Australia and New Zealand, from tier‑1 vendors and MSPs to high‑growth scale‑ups.

We build lasting partnerships and deliver quality, high‑impact hires not volume.

The Opportunity

- As an Associate Director, you’ll manage end-to-end searches across sales, pre‑sales, marketing, and leadership roles within the technology sector.

- It’s a true 360 role, a blend of strategy, delivery, and client partnership, with flexibility to design how you work.

The Role

- Manage retained and exclusive client relationships with autonomy and trust.

- Lead candidate research, outreach, and market mapping.

- Drive the full recruitment process from brief to shortlist to offer.

- Collaborate with the Founder on executive search and brand growth projects.

- Contribute to content, EVP, and authentic market storytelling.

About You

You’re personable, strategic, and organised, someone who builds genuine trust and consistently delivers results. You’ll do well here if you:

- Have proven experience as a 360 recruiter or senior consultant (agency or boutique).

- Thrive in a high‑touch, relationship‑driven environment.

- Are confident managing senior stakeholders and complex searches.

- Value autonomy, creativity, and flexible working.

- Want to do work that’s meaningful, not mechanical.

What’s on Offer

- Part‑time or full‑time flexibility, design your week (school hours welcome).

- Direct partnership with an industry‑respected founder.

- Genuine hybrid model, work from home and client‑side across Melbourne.

- Premium clients and challenging, rewarding searches.

- Boutique culture built on trust, not KPIs.

If you’re sharp, grounded, and ready to do recruitment your way we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now or message directly for a confidential conversation.
