Talent Consultant

We are an embedded partner to some of Australia’s most ambitious companies and act as an extension of their teams, to enhance their employer brand, redesign hiring processes, source the best talent out there, and build a more diverse, engaged, and productive workforce.

We implement a rich tech stack that supports our clients in sustainable growth and deliver training to their existing teams to address the systemic challenges to diversity from the ground up.

We don’t believe in culture-fit; we believe in culture-add.

The Role

You’ll work with clients acting as an extension of their team as you consult with them and represent their brand.

You’ll help our clients create inclusive systems and processes throughout the talent acquisition lifecycle and connect them with your extensive networks of specialist candidates.

Being embedded in our client’s business means that your relationships are from C-Suite to entry-level. It means your impact is throughout the whole business, not just on one role.

You truly have a seat at the table with awesome companies.

You will not only impact the recruitment processes of your clients but also gain exposure to strategic decision-making, opening new pathways for your career growth within the Fulcrum ecosystem.

Consult with candidates, facilitate their recruitment processes.

Actively engage in and drive conversations with clients about key topics such as diversity, inclusion, equity, and culture.

Be an expert in the Fulcrum technology and evangelical about how it can improve the candidate experience.

You will have the freedom to build your approach, leveraging our cutting-edge technology and resources to create meaningful solutions for clients and candidates alike.

Your Experience

Maybe you’re currently working in a traditional recruitment agency but feel stifled by rigid KPIs. Or perhaps you’ve moved in-house and are looking for a broader, more consultative role where you can make a real impact.

At Fulcrum, there’s no strict ‘must-have’ experience—we care more about your mindset and approach than your CV alone. We know you’ll excel in this role if you’re someone who thrives in providing strategic value to both clients and candidates.

Here’s how to tell if this role is the right fit for you:

This Role Is For You If

You’re passionate about offering thoughtful, consultative solutions that align with your client’s unique business goals rather than chasing quick wins.

You thrive in a varied role, working across different industries and challenges, and enjoy adapting your approach to suit each client.

You’re highly organised and methodical, with strong processes that ensure a seamless experience for both clients and candidates.

You value long-term relationships, focusing on delivering exceptional service and becoming a trusted advisor rather than prioritising short-term gains.

This Role May Not Be For You If

You prefer high-volume, transactional recruitment over personalised, high-quality service tailored to client needs.

You’re only comfortable working within a narrow specialisation and find it challenging to recruit across varied roles and industries.

You focus more on your own wins and commissions rather than prioritising what’s best for your clients and their long-term success.

Values and Behaviours

We believe that genuine partnerships are built by deeply understanding the needs, perspectives, and experiences of both our clients and candidates. Empathy is at the heart of what we do—it shapes every interaction, ensuring respect, care, and recognition of the unique value each individual brings.

Our behavioural values guide how we show up, collaborate, and make an impact every day:

Partner: We align our shared goals through embedded collaboration, ensuring we work as an extension of our client’s team.

Candour: We communicate directly and honestly, always acting with integrity and delivering on our promises.

Inquisitive: We’re open-minded and committed to continuous learning and improvement.

Impact: We strive to make a meaningful difference in everything we do, arriving inspired to create solutions and drive positive outcomes through our expertise and passion.

In return, we offer a great benefits package, flexibility, team socials, casual dress, and a laptop.

We have a tech stack that beats the majority of recruitment companies/internal teams, ensuring that you are set up for success and focus on the most important aspect of your role… helping teams and companies grow.
