Hire talent that
delivers.
Source of Hire Recruitment is a specialist agency covering engineering and technology. We connect exceptional talent with companies that value the right fit over the fast fill.
We built Source of Hire Recruitment to prove recruitment can be personal.
Source of Hire Recruitment was founded on a simple idea: the best placements come from genuinely knowing the people on both sides. We specialise in engineering and technology because depth in a market is what makes that possible.
Every candidate we represent goes through a skills assessment, so when we put someone forward we can speak with confidence about what they bring. But we go further than credentials. We take the time to understand ambitions, working styles, and what actually matters to someone in their next role.
For employers, that means shortlists that are genuinely relevant — not a numbers game. For candidates, it means introductions to roles that fit who they are, not just what they have done.
What sets us apart
We shortlist fewer, better candidates — so you spend less time interviewing and more time hiring the right person.
Placing talent across multiple industries and markets in Australia, the US, and the UK.
You deal directly with our directors from day one. No layers, no account managers, no runaround.
We move quickly because there is no bureaucracy. First candidates typically presented within one week.
Two sectors, one standard
We go deep in each market so we can speak the language of the people we place and the companies we serve.
Built environment and civil engineering — structural, mechanical, electrical, project management, and site leadership roles from graduate to executive level.
Software developers, cybersecurity, data science, DevOps, cloud infrastructure, and IT leadership across all levels.
How we operate
Every candidate and every client gets our full attention. We build relationships that outlast individual placements.
We would rather make one perfect match than a hundred average ones. Our reputation is built on placements that last.
No hidden agendas. We tell candidates what roles really look like, and we tell employers what the market actually demands.
We are not chasing quick fees. We are building careers and companies. The relationships we form today compound over years.

FAQ
Source of Hire Recruitment specialises in two key sectors: engineering (mechanical, civil, electrical, mining, software) and technology and IT (software developers, cybersecurity, data science, DevOps, cloud). We place candidates in permanent, contract, and executive roles across both verticals.
We operate globally, placing candidates and serving employers across multiple countries and major cities worldwide.
SOH Recruitment is founder-led — you deal directly with our directors, not a call centre. We focus on quality over quantity, prioritising long-term placements that genuinely fit both the candidate and employer. Our approach is transparent, with honest market insights and no hidden agendas. We also specialise across two high-demand sectors rather than trying to be everything to everyone.
