Meaghan was phenomenal through out the entire recruiting process! She not only found a job that I was interested in and suited my skills but also assisted my transition over to the role to be as seamless as possible. She’s an absolute delight!

Legal Secretary, Sydney

Melina Iuculano

I have known Melina for over 15 years as she has helped me in a number of organisations to find talent for marketing and sales roles. What I love about her work is that she will often add someone to the shortlist for a role who is a bit left of field. They may have a background, or a particular skill set that we may not have thought to consider in our initial briefing. Melina is consistent, reliable and transparent in all her dealings with her clients and candidates, which is why we keep coming back to her.

HR Director – Global Toy Organisation

Neal Ford

The support I received from the team at Tanner Menzies and in particular Neal Ford were instrumental in helping secure a new job. Neal was open and communicative with me through every step of the interview process, checking in and offering helpful and mature guidance and insight. Tanner Menzies had me in a new job in an industry that excites me with a competitive salary within two weeks of our first meeting. I cannot recommend their services highly enough. If I’m in the position to be looking for another role in the future, Neal’s will be the first number I dial. Thank you Neal and the team at Tanner Menzies.

Meaghan Gleeson

I’ve been relying on Meaghan for over 10 years to find me our key admin and business support people, and have found her to be responsive, trustworthy, desirous to ‘match’ the firm with the right people and able to find the quality candidates. When she is on the case, I know I can trust that she is accurately screening people and not simply looking to just make a placement. From a client perspective, Meaghan’s move to Tanner Menzies has been a great one

Alison is persistent in her pursuit for the right candidate and has always delivered for me.
