Are you an experienced recruiter with 10+ years broad, end-to-end recruitment experience and have recruited across several industries? If you're looking to use your recruitment expertise in a more meaningful way, this could be the opportunity for you.

About CMS:

Career Management Services (CMS) is an Australian-owned career services organisation operating across Australia and New Zealand. For more than 20 years, we've helped thousands of people navigate career change, redundancy, workplace transitions, injury management and professional development. We partner with leading employers, government organisations and insurers to deliver career transition, coaching, redeployment and employability services that genuinely make a difference.

The Opportunity:

This is a highly consultative, people-focused role where you'll work one-on-one with individuals navigating career change and transition. Your recruitment background will be invaluable as you help clients:

  • Understand their skills, experience and career options
  • Identify transferable skills and alternative career pathways
  • Develop effective job search strategies
  • Prepare CVs, LinkedIn profiles and interview techniques
  • Understand current labour market conditions and recruitment trends
  • Build confidence and successfully transition into new employment

You'll work with people from a diverse range of backgrounds and industries - from senior professionals and executives to frontline and blue-collar workers. Your recruitment experience will give you the commercial insight and labour market knowledge to provide practical, credible and personalised career advice.

What You'll Bring:

We're particularly interested in professionals with:

  • 10+ years broad recruitment experience
  • End-to-end recruitment experience, from sourcing through to placement
  • Experience recruiting across both blue and white collar sectors
  • A strong mix of permanent and contract recruitment
  • Excellent understanding of recruitment processes, labour markets and employment trends
  • Strong interviewing, assessment and candidate engagement skills
  • The ability to build trust and rapport with people from diverse backgrounds
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • A consultative, empathetic and solutions-focused approach
  • Confidence supporting people through career change and challenging circumstances
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage a diverse caseload

Why Join CMS?

This is an opportunity to take the skills you've built throughout your recruitment career and use them to make a genuine difference. You’ll join an experienced and supportive national team, with ongoing mentoring, professional development and a flexible hybrid working environment. Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to help people at a pivotal point in their lives - using your recruitment expertise to open doors, build confidence and create new career possibilities.
