Job description

Let’s be honest — not all recruitment agencies (or leadership roles) are created equal.

At SMAART Recruitment, we do things differently. We’re an award-winning, people-first agency with a brilliant reputation across Sales & Marketing, Contact Centre, and Business Support, and we’re growing our Adelaide business.

We’re looking for an experienced recruiter who’s ready to step into a leadership role without giving up the buzz of billing. You’ll mentor the next generation of recruiters while running your desk your way.

Why You’ll Love Working at SMAART
  • Award-winning agency with a strong, established brand
  • Adelaide CBD office with a buzzing, collaborative team
  • Run your desk your way, autonomy, trust, and support
  • Competitive salary: $90K–$120K + super + uncapped commissions (experience dependent)
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Phone plan + company laptop
  • Interstate team incentive trips (for ALL staff)
  • Legendary Christmas parties
  • Funness Day — a paid day off focused on connection and fun
  • 2 Recharge Days for wellbeing + your birthday off (paid!)
  • Up to 5 additional annual leave days (1 per year of service)
  • Ongoing training, education allowance & genuine career pathways
  • A supportive, down-to-earth culture where collaboration is everything
The Opportunity

Based in our Adelaide CBD office, you’ll lead a small team of emerging and established recruiters while actively delivering recruitment solutions across temp and perm roles.

You’ll work with prestigious brands, SMEs, and State Government, building long-term partnerships and making a real impact.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead, mentor, and support a team of recruiters
  • Coach performance while leading from the front through your own billing
  • Manage a full 360° recruitment desk
  • Source, screen, interview, and place high-quality candidates
  • Build and maintain strong talent pools
  • Nurture and grow client relationships
  • Conduct client meetings and deliver consultative recruitment solutions
  • Attend networking and industry events
Who We Are

We’re SMAART Recruitment- an innovative, multi-award-winning agency established in 2005.

Our Melbourne office has been kicking goals for over 20 years, and our Adelaide presence, 7 years strong, is growing quickly. We’re known not just for results, but for energy, quality, authenticity, and a lot of laughs along the way.

What Does It Take to Be a SMAARTY?
You’re someone who:
  • Is energised by helping others grow and succeed
  • Is sales-driven with proven results and resilience
  • Has strong EQ and builds genuine, lasting connections
  • Brings a consultative approach to influencing and selling
  • Is ambitious, honest, and commercially minded
  • Has a great sense of humour (seriously - it matters here!)
Ideally, You’ll Have:
  • 3–5+ years’ agency recruitment experience
  • A successful 360° recruitment background
  • Prior leadership experience or strong desire and natural ability to lead
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • High attention to detail and strong organisational skills
  • Positive energy, drive, and enthusiasm for recruitment
Ready to Join SMAART?
If you’re ready to step into leadership without losing the fun, energy, or earning potential, we’d love to hear from you.
