About
Laurence Recruitment is a leading Executive search and placement organisation, based in Melbourne and also operating in Sydney and along the eastern seaboard. We specialise in matching clients needs with suitable candidates at the Sales Executive, Marketing, Management and Executive levels, across a range of industry sectors. The firm is led by Managing Director Rebecca Laurence, who has over 25 years of experience in Sales & General Management positions in a variety of companies and industries. Over the past 5 years, Rebecca has developed the company into a specialist Executive search and placement firm with a network of loyal clients and a large pool of candidates across a range of industries including Industrial, Commercial, Facilities Management, Wholesale, Retail and FMCG.
Our strength lies in our ability to match clients and candidates culturally, which is arguably more important than the technical skills required to sell and develop business. We have found that culturally aligned employees are far more likely to be open to learning and training, which produces higher levels of performance over time.

The company also offers sales training and talent mapping services for its clients sales and business development teams, either in partnership with an organisation’s own training programmes, or bespoke services specifically tailored to a client’s requirements.

Testimonials
Wow.....a recruiter that is not only professional, efficient, and actually returns calls, is empathetic and genuinely cares about professionals seeking alternative employment opportunities.
I first met Rebecca in late June and was employed by early August - she moves fast..! I found her to be driven and focussed in her objectives (with her strong and engaging personality) and kept me abreast of all developments throughout the recruitment process.
I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone job applicant seeking employment specialising in managerial/sales roles.
