Want to know what it's really like to work for the Rubicor Group? Below are a selection of testimonials from new entrants to long-term employees.
New Entrants Program
This is a powerful tool box for success, It highlighted all the processes and steps to recruitment and will be up to me to use the tools accordingly. It is not prescriptive, it allows for diversity/styles etc irrespective of peoples personal approach – we can all be successful. We are all; 'self aware' and can now identify the right technique for our success. Fantastic course and great mechanism for any new recruit.
Susan
I think this program would be very helpful to anyone wanting to get these best start in the industry.
Will
Gaynor was a fantastic trainer — it really added to the training that she had worked in the industry and was able to give real life examples and prove how hard work leads to success. Michael was also fantastic, he was highly organised and always there for us — food and accommodation were perfect. Thanks everyone for the opportunity.
Rubina
Gaynor's workbook will be a fantastic resource that will live on my desk. Loved the opportunity to meet and talk with others… I look forward to keeping an eye on their futures — as well as mine!
Vivienne
I really enjoyed every moment and though my brain is overloaded I will make a success of myself due to this course. Also, I feel by putting all of us together it will help create relationships between Rubicor businesses. Michael is amazing.

Long-term Employees
I have worked with the Rubicor Group for just over 5 years, most recently as a Branch Manager for one of their 24 brands. I truly enjoy working for a boutique agency, who are experts in their field and totally committed to their market.
Having the flexibility and autonomy, to make decisions and being be nimble in our marketplace, makes this role rewarding and allows me to focus on service delivery and client satisfaction. The benefit of Rubicor is that we are a collection of highly successful boutique agency’s that are all specialists within their own space and together we enjoy the benefits of, support and leverage. Which means you get all the benefits of working for a larger agency, whilst retaining all the benefits of being part of a smaller highly successful boutique team.

I have been working within the Rubicor Group for 5 months. I work for one of their operating companies, specialising in recruiting for Office Support professionals. I hold the position of Team Leader / Senior Consultant and part of my responsibility is to assist in mentoring and leading new starters. I really enjoy this aspect of my role as I have been doing recruitment for 10 years and feel I have a lot of knowledge and experience that I can share with them, assisting them with their move into the recruitment industry. Rubicor Group is one of the largest recruitment parent companies in Australia and New Zealand and it consists of 23 operating businesses. This helps me in my day to day role especially when I’m talking to senior clients as it makes us fairly unique in our different pitch which then makes us stand out from all the other agencies. Rubicor offers great training , career opportunities and also a pleasant working culture / environment. This has been evident in my career to date as we have all the above which leads to a great team , leading to strong business growth.

I’ve been with Rubicor for 18 months working as a Consultant for a brand in New Zealand. I specialise in permanent Accounting and Finance recruitment at the Mid-Management level.
I love the diversity my role gives me and the cliché that no 2 days are ever the same is absolutely true, but the thing which I love the most is the people I meet. Whether it’s a candidate just starting out in their career, an experienced accounting professional, or a client facing staffing challenges, not many jobs allows you to meet such a diverse range of people every single day.
I’ve never worked for such a supportive business. They have a huge focus on their people and they create an environment which allows its staff to flourish.
I love the fact that I work for a true specialist, a brand designed and fully focused on the market it recruits in. But we’re also part of the much larger Rubicor business, and the benefits of this are priceless – the opportunities, the networks and the support you would expect of an ASX listed business are all available to you.
Lee
I joined in 2005 as a Senior Consultant and I became Research Manager in 2007 to set up that function. I returned to Consulting 18 months later and joined our specialist FMCG team.
I came into recruitment because I enjoyed building relationships and I get particular satisfaction from learning about different businesses, their complexities and challenges and finding solutions for them in the people I place. Equally I enjoy learning about candidates and their backgrounds and finding the roles and environments that will take them through the next stage of their career. Ultimately though, the meshing of the two and achieving the result is what drives me.
I like the mix of corporate structure and resources with the entrepreneurial culture which allows you to challenge thinking and consult to fit the client.
I initially joined this business because it offered an entrepreneurial company with a fun culture and an innovative spirit. As part of Rubicor, I enjoy a flexible and supportive business that encourages innovation but with the professionalism, resources and processes of a corporate entity.
Lara
I have been working for a brand under the Rubicor umbrella for the past 12 months in the capacity of Client Relationship Manager. With over 15 years experience across Account Management, HR, Internal & Agency Recruitment covering various industries, predominately IT & Banking & Financial Services I manage the largest PSA accounts. My key skills are in fostering great relationships and understanding my client’s business objectives to offer successful solutions for both complex resource and business requirements. I love exceeding my client's expectations, creating an ongoing partnership and level of trust.
Rubicor offers fantastic working benefits including extra personal leave days in lieu of service, conversion of sick leave & your birthday off!
Rubicor have established themselves in the market offering a multitude of solutions to various industries so you can work with some of the biggest and best organisations in the market. They offer a challenging fast-paced working environment and there are many opportunities for career development working with Rubicor throughout their 23 subsidiary companies.
Jemma
I have just last week celebrated my 20th year with Wizard People. There have been many changes along the way of 20 years, not the least that Rubicor acquired the Wizard business in 2007 and I was able to take a step back from being an owner/manager to doing what I like best, that is being a recruiter! However there would not be many acquisition companies who would allow you to do this. The Rubicor model has this flexibility and has allowed me to concentrate on my clients, to get back into hands on recruitment and to expand the business through these channels. I still love what I do, 20 years on, and encourage others to make the commitment to being a ‘top recruiter’, it is a very satisfying and rewarding role and you make many friends along the way. My friends become my clients and my clients become my friends, makes business very rewarding.
