The posting

Australian Skilled Migration (ASM), part of the Capricorn Group, is looking for someone with building and construction experience who understands tradespeople, can recognise practical capability and enjoys building business relationships. What you bring is industry knowledge, sound judgement and the confidence to turn conversations into business opportunities.

About the role

Reporting to the General Manager, you will recruit construction and welding candidates from Australia and overseas, connecting skilled workers with employers who need them.

You will manage the recruitment process from sourcing and interviewing candidates through to placement. You will also develop client relationships, follow up enquiries and convert leads into recruitment engagements.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Sourcing and attracting candidates across construction roles.

• Interviewing tradespeople to evaluate their practical knowledge, work history and suitability for employer requirements.

• Preparing candidate shortlists and coordinating employer interviews and selection.

• Building a strong understanding of clients’ businesses, workforce needs and role requirements.

• Following up leads, identifying new client opportunities and securing recruitment business.

• Managing candidate and client relationships throughout the recruitment process.

• Working closely with ASM’s migration team to coordinate progress towards placement.

• Keeping recruitment records accurate and providing timely updates to clients and candidates.

About you

You have experience in building and construction and can hold a credible, practical conversation with tradespeople and employers. You know the questions to ask to understand what someone has done and whether their experience fits the job.

You will bring:

• A building or construction industry background, with knowledge of trade roles and workplace requirements.

• The ability to evaluate candidates’ technical experience through practical, detailed interviews.

• Strong communication and relationship building skills.

• A commercial mindset and the confidence to pursue opportunities, follow up leads and win business.

• Good organisation and the ability to manage several candidates and vacancies at once.

• A proactive approach and a willingness to learn.

Experience with welding roles would be highly regarded. Previous recruitment, sales or business development experience would also be valuable, but recruitment experience is not essential.

Why join ASM?

• Put your industry experience to use in a role combining people, recruitment and business development.

• Join Australia's leading business in skilled trades recruitment and migration

• Full training and ongoing development provided

• Clear career pathways in a growing organisation

• Strong team support and modern platforms and digital systems

• Competitive salary plus performance bonus structure

• Join a Capricorn Group business and contribute to the growth of its construction and trades recruitment.

Interested?

Apply through SEEK with your CV and a brief cover letter outlining your building or construction experience and why this role interests you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
