Our Recruitment Philosophy
Did you know ACRUX is an abbreviation of Alpha Crucis which is the brightest star in the southern cross? To the naked eye ACRUX appears as a single star, but it is actually a triple star system and it is many times more massive and luminous than the Sun.
It is this philosophy that ACRUX Search applies to your recruitment service. Let us find your business’ brightest star. You never know, if you let ACRUX Search explore for your next employee may be the equivalent of a triple star.

Cost Effective.
The hourly rate model is perfectly suited for our business and is far more cost effective than traditional contingent recruitment. Model, we find ACRUX search to be a true business partner. Their team attendes our interviews and really consults through the process. I have referred ACRUX Search to other colleagues within the industry

Recommend to our own clients
I have been dealing with Campbell since before he launched ACRUX Search and highly recommend him and the business. I have recommend ACRUX Search to three of my own clients as part of my business coaching.

ACRUX Search gave us a process
Prior to engaging ACRUX Search, our hiring process fell purely on the hiring managers and we found significant inconsistencies throughout the business, adding a professional recruitment service brough us a consistent process that removed the jobs for mates culture previously in the organisation. Turnover is drastically down even in low skilled entry level positions. We paid for a professional service but we saved money beacuse our hiring manager got their time back and we stopped having to retrain people.
