Company Description
Southbound Recruitment is an Australian recruitment firm that specialises in sourcing skilled international talent for employers across the country. Founded in 2021 and led by directors Richard Riordan and Brendan Halliday, who bring more than 30 years of collective experience, the company focuses on solving local skill shortages by accessing deep overseas networks across more than 15 countries. Southbound operates a visa-ready recruitment model: candidates are pre-qualified with the required documentation, testing, and skills assessments in place before presentation, reducing risk and accelerating deployment. For employers, this means a smoother pathway to hiring sponsored staff, with migration partners managing nomination and visa applications to streamline compliance, timelines, and effort. Southbound has placed hundreds of experienced trades and hospitality professionals into Australian businesses, from chefs and pastry specialists to mechanics and technicians supporting sectors such as hospitality, agriculture, mining, and broader engineering and industrial operations. The firm prioritises long-term fit and retention, noting that many international applicants are motivated by stable roles and the opportunity to build a life in Australia, which translates to commitment, reliability, and lower turnover for clients. Services span end-to-end recruitment for permanent roles, shortlist delivery, interview coordination, and offer management, underpinned by transparent communication and diligent candidate preparation. Employers benefit from a consultative approach that aligns workforce plans with immigration pathways and regional skills needs, while job seekers receive practical guidance on roles, relocation, and interview readiness. Headquartered in Collingwood, VIC, Southbound Recruitment partners with businesses nationwide, combining boutique responsiveness with rigorous process discipline to deliver skilled people quickly and compliantly. By connecting global talent with Australian opportunity, Southbound provides a dependable source of hard-to-find skills and a straightforward hiring experience.
