Generalists can’t fix specialist problems

Critical projects often stall because of a single missing skill set. You don't need a six-month recruitment cycle or a generalist hire; you need immediate, surgical impact.

We connect you with senior practitioners who possess deep domain authority.

Whether it's navigating complex tax reform, implementing a specific tech stack, or restructuring a supply chain, access the specific "hard-to-find" skills required to unblock your strategy without increasing fixed headcount.

Dave Porter

Managing Director, AFA Insurance

"They were prompt, professional and helpful from the start - only took 3-4 business days to receive applicants, interview and successfully hire an excellent candidate. It was the best experience we have had with a recruitment firm for many years."

Rachel Hall

Head of People & Culture, Chatime AU

"The speed of service is outstanding and not like anything I have experienced with any other agencies. The recruiter kept me informed at all times and was able to pivot quickly when our brief changed."

Kristie Rogers

Delivery Director, Visa AP

“I trust Expert360 to deliver the contracting talent I need quickly, to work together and be flexible (when needed). They have delivered the best talent of all our contracting talent sourcing partners over the past 3 years in Australia (in my opinion).”

Can I hire experts for a fixed project outcome?
