Dedicated to the growth of Australia’s infrastructure and construction industry.

Infrastructure People

This is why we do it

We understand how important it is to have the right people, in the right roles to ensure your business is equipped for success. However, we have seen firsthand how businesses can struggle to access the desired level of talent due to the high agency fees that the traditional recruitment model tends to attract.

Infrastructure People offers a solution that breaks down the barriers of this antiquated model by ensuring our workforce becomes an extension of your own. Dependent on your needs, our team will join your workforce on-site or remotely providing you with on-going support.

This is how we do it

We have significant experience in leading recruitment and human resource functions for numerous infrastructure projects across Australia. Our team is made up of some of Australia’s most experienced infrastructure recruiters, supported by a specialised team of marketing & employee analysis managers.

We ensure that we provide you with the resource or outcome that best suits your organisation, and doesn’t end in outrageous one-off lump sum fees payable once we’ve done the job we promised.
