Eden was responsive and knowledgeable in terms of the market, but what really set him apart was his ability to listen to what I was looking for in a role. I never felt pressured to accept something that didn’t feel right. No hesitation to recommend Eden.

Business Manager, Health and Safety Sector

Holly and the team at Fluid worked harder for me than any other recruitment firm I've ever worked with. They sourced multiple employment options for me to choose from and made moving across the country for a new role much easier. I highly recommend Fluid.

As our business has grown, Jason has gone above and beyond to recruit many successful candidates for us across the country. Jason is very easy to work with and we find him to be professional, knowledgeable and extremely helpful.

National Sales Manager, National Retailer

Tom has always been a very inquisitive recruiter! He is not your traditional “take the brief from the client and run with it” recruiter. He wants to understand the company, the culture and really invests in the company he is recruiting for.

Holly operates with integrity and was a pleasure to work with. This was a skill set in high demand in the current market and she represented our firm in the best possible manner providing detailed advise and support to ensure a successful outcome.
