Human Resources

The best candidates. The best experience.

HR is the people-first foundation of every organisation. From attracting and developing talent to managing change and supporting employee wellbeing, HR professionals keep businesses performing at their best. At Consortium, we understand both the strategic and human aspects of HR, which is why we’re trusted to place professionals who balance empathy with commercial acumen.

We recruit permanent, interim and contract roles across all levels. Many of the HR professionals we place come through referrals, networks and targeted research, meaning they are not actively applying elsewhere - giving our clients access to exceptional talent.
