Jo is our HQ Recruitment Partner who we have recently welcomed to our team this month. We asked Jo some fun questions to get to know her a little better!
Q. Tell us about your career background
I am so privileged to have been in the recruitment industry for over 15 years now! In recent years I have been lucky enough to be able to focus on Head Office roles within the incredible Fashion Industry. I feel my stars are aligned combining my love for Fashion and love for Recruitment - this is where I am truly passionate.
Q. What is your most valued career achievement?
Working with a customer, where we have no existing relationship, and building them into an exclusive client. I am in my element when putting the right talent into the right jobs and watching those people and companies flourish and grow.
Q. What is your go to approach to get you through the day?
I always take a moment to plan my day first thing in the morning. I like to focus my time on the immediate needs of my customers and prioritise around that.
Q. What about you makes you great at your job?
The ability to quickly recognise what our client needs and tenacity to find the right, top talent.
Q. What is your idea of success?
Happy customers and thriving candidates!

My family, friends and developing long term relationships with our clients and candidates.
Q. What brands are you loving right now?
I’m loving all Australian Labels now such as Ksubi, Alias Mae, Rachel Gilbert, Mossman, Witchery, Fairley.
Q. Tell us something we would never guess about you?
I loved to tap dance as a child.
Q. Describe your perfect day.
Any day when I’m close to the ocean is perfect to me!
Q. If you could have anyone in the world be your dinner guest, who would it be?
Victoria Beckam. I admire the way Victoria has thrived in her all areas of her career transitioning from Pop Star to Fashion Designer and now her own Beauty brand, always presenting herself with grace and staying true to her distinct style, all whilst raising an incredible family alongside her husband, with his own iconic career.
