Recruitment Leader – Certus Recruitment Australia

Melbourne CBD | Leadership | Growth Opportunity | Equity

Ready to step up?

We are Certus Recruitment, a global niche recruiter delivering GTM and Technical solutions to the Tech sector, working with clients across SaaS, AI & Data, Cloud and Financial Services from our offices in the UK, USA and Australia.

We're now looking to recruit a leader for our Melbourne business to lead, inspire and grow
Certus Australia
from our Melbourne CBD office.

This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of an established, high-potential business and drive it through its next phase of growth. You'll combine commercial vision with hands-on leadership — shaping strategy, expanding market presence, and building a high-performance culture that reflects our values:
Passion, Energy, Commitment, Integrity, and Fun.

Your level of leadership experience is not critical – what is, is that you crave it now and recognise that leadership partners accountability.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead the business with energy and intent — setting strategy, defining growth goals, and executing with precision.
  • Play an active role recruiting, delivering an exceptional experience for Clients and Candidates
  • Drive commercial performance through client acquisition, account development, and new market opportunities.
  • Oversee operational excellence, ensuring quality, consistency, and profitability.
  • Build, mentor, and empower a high-performing small team of recruiters — fostering collaboration, accountability, and ambition.
  • Represent Certus across the Australian market, building trusted relationships with clients, candidates, and partners.
  • Manage budgets, forecast performance, and make data-driven decisions to deliver sustainable growth.

What we're looking for:

  • Proven track record within recruitment, ideally within GTM or Technical recruitment with experience of the Technology sector
  • A deep understanding of the 'process' of recruitment and an ability to analyse a recruitment desk and to determine what needs doing and how to get it done.
  • A demonstrable 'need' for success and an abhorrence of failure.
  • A can do approach with a 'now not later' mindset and approach.
  • A natural leader
    — confident, decisive, and motivational, with a genuine ability to inspire high performance.
  • A genuine desire and appetite for self improvement
  • Commercially sharp and data-driven
    , with the ability to identify trends, spot opportunity, and execute effectively.
  • An ethical and values-driven approach
    , with pride in your work and a desire to build something lasting.
  • A passion for recruitment
    and a hands-on approach — leading from the front, not from behind a desk.

You may well have considered setting up on your own and will have a strong belief in your own capability, with that belief framed by past success and your solid work ethic. If the above bullet points excite, rather than scare you, then let's connect.

In return, you can be assured that you will be working with a leadership team that are invested in your success. You will be fully supported and as part of the global management team you will participate in group wide discussion and objective setting.

The successful candidate will receive a highly competitive remuneration package with genuine opportunity for significant equity within the Australian business.
