History of Our Organisation

Labourpower Recruitment Services commenced operations in October 2002 with its initial objective to service large industrial companies with their casual blue collar requirements.

Our services grew at a rapid rate with offices opening in Melbourne, and Brisbane by March 2003. In March 2004 we had offices in
Adelaide and regional NSW including Newcastle and CentralCoast. More recently additional offices on the Gold Coast have provided Labourpower with the opportunity to boast an even larger national presence. During this time the scope of works offered expanded from industrial to include our LP Consulting Divisions which services traditional white collar and executive clients as well as training services. Labourpower is viewed in the market place as a true generalist recruitment provider. 

We have sought the best recruitment consultants in the industry to build our brand. We only recruit into our organization, individuals who are willing to operate within the four cornerstones of our business – expertise, integrity, service and professionalism. 

Labourpower is supported by one of the most experienced senior management teams in the industry who are actively and closely involved with day to day business in a hands-on way.  We possess strong fundamentals from which we work. We choose to work with like minded clients, allowing us to have a solutions mindset and take a partnership approach to all relationships.

The key objective in all operations is to adopt a partnership approach with client companies and delivering full service recruitment with a complementary range of service offerings including training, human resource consulting and payroll services.

Whilst Labourpower satisfies the diverse recruitment and staffing needs of client companies predominantly in the Industrial Sector, we seek to ensure seamless delivery of service to a wider scope of client companies including those operating in the technical, engineering, service, Government and administrative arenas. 

Through operating in an appropriate locality Labourpower will ensure that we are truly a National-based provider offering client companies the benefits that come from having such a fitting geographical coverage. 

Labourpower is committed to workplace diversity and equal employment opportunity by utilising staff from varying demographics including mature aged workers, those from different socio-economic backgrounds, wide-ranging ethnic backgrounds, indigenous workers, parents returning to the workplace and those with a disability. 

It is our mission to develop a respected and recognizable brand that is synonymous with quality service, high safety standards and a passionate staffing team. At Labourpower Recruitment Services’ our vision is to fortify a reputation for quality service delivery in the areas of recruitment and staffing and to build on this by offering a business solutions beyond the capabilities of our competitors.

The recruitment methodology we employ includes industry networking, search and advertised selection. All of our consultants are fully trained in competency-based selection and our dedication to providing shortlists of quality candidates reflects our industry experience and detailed professional approach.

Service
Our service based philosophy is built upon respect for our clients’ needs rather than agency-driven KPI’s. We believe our value add is our recruitment expertise and our ability to ensure cost savings to the business by minimising disruption to core functions throughout the recruitment process.

As such our consultants work with the Human Resources personnel to ensure that recruitment briefs are comprehensive and have headcount approval prior to commencement of the assignment. Every team is different with specific requirements, when these are known to your recruitment specialist further meetings with line management are no longer required thus maximizing information and minimising interruption.

Our mantra is that our clients don’t need interview practice so we recommend the MOST suitable candidate for interview. Client requirements can change throughout the process so asking the right questions saves everyone time.

Quality control is an essential part of the service we provide. All our candidates are advised to bring their original academic records or any documentation that supports the information on their resume, for presentation to their consultant at time of initial interview. Copies are kept in the candidate file and faxed to our clients for review. Two reference checks are conducted with their most recent employers/positions with a candidates direct reporting line manager wherever possible. Our reference check template is comprehensive and can be modelled to meet a specific area of interest to our client. Skill Testing and Personality Profiling is essential for office support positions and is provided for candidates where appropriate.

Candidates
All candidates enjoy prompt and open communication with their consultant. We support our candidates throughout the recruitment process from interview to offer and post placement. Understanding a candidate’s requirements at the start of the process is an essential part of providing that service.

We carefully screen applicants prior to inviting them for interview in our offices; LP Consulting does not seek to build a data base of candidates but more specifically to resource candidates that are suitable for current positions. This avoids candidate frustration and enables consultants to concentrate their efforts on current positions.

The first question we ask our candidates at time of interview is “What are you ideally looking for in your next position?”

This service based approach enables candidates to be frank about their expectations and their consultants to look for the preferred environment and role that match their skills and experience. The consultant that invites a candidate in for interview is responsible for their candidate throughout the full recruitment process.
