Who We Are
MACRO Recruitment is a specialist Australian recruitment agency connecting employers with high-performing staff across trades, engineering, manufacturing, education, healthcare, and professional sectors.
Founded in 1991, we’ve built a reputation for precision, honesty, and care — combining decades of recruitment experience with modern technology to deliver fast, reliable results.
Our team operates nationally from our Hawthorn headquarters in Victoria, supporting clients across every state and territory.
Our Purpose
We exist to help employers succeed through better hiring — and to help job seekers find meaningful work that fits their skills and personality.
Every placement is a partnership. We take the time to understand both sides:
- What drives your business and team culture
- What motivates the candidate beyond their resume
Our goal is to make recruitment smarter, faster, and more human.
Our Approach
At MACRO, recruitment is more than matching keywords on a CV.
We use a blend of AI automation and recruiter intuition to find, assess, and engage talent quickly — without losing the human touch.
Our process includes:
- Targeted search using one of Australia’s largest candidate databases
- Behavioural profiling using the DISC system
- Personalised screening calls and reference checks
- Ongoing candidate care and feedback
- Transparent communication with employers at every stag
We don’t hide behind emails — we pick up the phone, listen, and make things happen.
Our Experience
Over three decades, MACRO has supported thousands of employers across Australia — from small family-run businesses to major national contracts in Defence, manufacturing, education, and infrastructure.
We’ve built long-term partnerships based on trust, accountability, and measurable outcomes.
Our Defence-cleared recruitment capability and experience with government tenders demonstrate our ability to meet complex compliance and quality standards.

Technology Meets Experience
We’ve invested heavily in recruitment software and AI tools to streamline sourcing, screening, and communication — giving our clients faster access to the right people.
Our Perform Zone platform powers MACRO’s workflow, integrating AI candidate matching, SMS/email automation, and compliance checks for a seamless experience.
But technology only supports what makes MACRO different: our recruiters care enough to get it right.
Our Team
We’re a close-knit, performance-driven team of recruiters and support staff.
We share knowledge daily, challenge each other to improve, and celebrate every placement.
If you visit our Hawthorn office, you’ll find a collaborative open-plan space filled with phone calls, problem-solving, and the occasional loud laugh.
We’re passionate about what we do — and we take pride in helping others succeed.
