The best proof we have isn't a pitch

It's the fact that our clients keep coming back. Many of the leaders who've hired through Insight Resourcing have stuck with us, and some have even packed us up and taken us with them from one business to the next, like a proven playbook they carry from role to role.

They've been generous enough to put their names to what working with us is really like. Here's what they had to say.

Thibault De PolignacAPAC Head of Sales, SAI Global
Finding the right partner in recruitment can be a challenge in what is a very crowded space where often ticking boxes is the name of the game. Over the years, I found Insight Resourcing to be head and shoulders above the competition. The team at Insight Resourcing spent a lot of time understanding the employer's landscape and job brief (culture, roles, management style, business objectives) before looking for the perfect candidates. Their needs assessments and understanding resulted in a smoother and faster first interview process but as importantly a better candidate experience. I also have found Adam excellent at taking feedback and incorporating it in his searches, again resulting in further refined results.
Brad ReeceState Sales Manager, Gumtree / eBay
Adam is the consummate professional. I have had the unique experience of dealing with Adam as a candidate and recruiting partner. I cannot speak more highly of all my experiences. Adam does the basics very well by providing constant communication and updates, which as a candidate (and recruiter) is most important. The knowledge that Adam was engaging our potential candidates for our roles in the same way he did me provided confidence that our candidates were receiving the same great experience. Adam invested time into genuinely understanding my requirements and presenting candidates who aligned with the role. I highly recommend Adam and Insight Resourcing to job candidates and employers looking to partner with an agency.
Penny KeeCEO, Oly
I have used Adam and the team at Insight Resourcing basically since 2010 to find top quality sales and digital talent. In that time the roles I have hired for have covered a broad spectrum; from entry level advertising co-ordinator through to General Manager and Operations Director, all of which they handled with the same level of professionalism and determination. When my career took me in different directions, from Advertising to Programmatic Data solutions to e-commerce, Adam took the time to both understand my requirements and the market in which I now found myself. It is this level of commitment that separates Adam and the Insight team from the many recruiters I have dealt with over the years and why I regularly recommend them.
Annaliese Van RietHR & Recruitment Professional, Fairfax Media, Pandora, DoorDash, Austereo
Adam from Insight Resourcing is one of only a handful of recruitment professionals who I have collaborated with across numerous organisations over the years, to support our talent resourcing efforts. Regardless of the organisation, he has always proved to be highly professional, curious and passionate about delivering with integrity. Adam knows the market and builds rapport and respect from clients and candidates alike, which results in a fantastic experience for all involved.
Davor VilusicExecutive General Manager, carsales.com.au
We have worked with Insight Resourcing on a number of roles and we've continually been impressed with their market knowledge and understanding of the digital media and sales landscape. Insight Resourcing have delivered our business numerous high calibre candidates over the years and we recommend their services to any business looking to engage a recruitment firm with solid experience and strong ethical principles.
Vanya MarianiGM Retail, Wesfarmers OneDigital
Working with Insight Resourcing over the last eight years has been a true partnership. Adam and his team understand the digital landscape well; he has familiarised himself with our business' operating rhythm and knows how to match the right talent to what we are seeking at any given point. It's an authentic relationship where trust is built and maintained. I would also add that Adam's ability to think outside the obvious talent pools is unique. Some of our best and longest serving talent has come from industries we wouldn't have considered, but the work ethic of the people we were seeking was spot on!
Jason PopkowskiVP of Sales, Dye & Durham
I find using Insight Resourcing incredibly valuable. It saves me time, and I consistently get high-quality, high-performing candidates that deliver exceptional ROI for the business. Adam and his team have a uniquely consultative approach to understand my business and the granular aspects of the role and candidates I require. Matched with their expertise, in my opinion this formula gives Insight Resourcing the edge over anyone else in the Australian recruitment market and I've never looked back since partnering with them. The result for me is 90% of the time the first candidate I interview is the person I hire. In 10 years I've never gone past a third candidate interview to find who I need.
Melissa GreenHead of Agency, Facebook
For many years Insight Resourcing partnered with myself and the greater Fairfax business to deliver high quality sales talent time and again. Through understanding role requirements both from a cultural and technical perspective, Adam and co were able to deliver quality talent over a long period of time. Highly recommend their services.
Thomas StephensGeneral Manager, DoorDash Australia
Adam took the time to get to know our business simply more deeply than any other recruiter we worked with. It showed in how on-target the candidates that he introduced us to were, causing us to hire an outsized portion of his candidates that we interviewed. Net-net? Time back into the team's pocket and top-tier talent in the door faster. Highly recommend Insight Resourcing.
Sunny BlaskettVictorian Sales Manager, Mamamia
Insight Resourcing are always my first contact for recruitment. Whether personally looking for a role or recruiting for a team, Insight have been integral to that process. They know the sales and digital landscape very well and have an intimate understanding of internal cultures within the industry. They have always provided candid advice and guidance, and this is what I value most about my working relationship with Insight. It's hard to find a recruiter that you can trust, but Insight genuinely care and that is reflected throughout the entire recruitment process. Would highly recommend Adam and the team!
Brodie TaylorCommercial Director, Drive.com.au
Insight Resourcing have the smarts, connections, and insights to source smart candidates. The team at Insight appreciate the importance of cultural fit and always go the extra mile to understand the nuances of a role.
Anna FlemingOwner and Managing Director, Oncall Personnel
We first worked with Melanie from Insight Resourcing a number of years ago when we needed a Developer for a new digital program we were looking to roll out. We were unsure of our exact needs for the project, but Melanie worked with us to build out a full recruitment roadmap and found us an amazing developer in the process. I highly recommend Insight Resourcing and since partnering with them we haven't looked back.
Ryan TuckermanRegional Director of Performance, Art Series Hotels
We worked with Insight Resourcing during a period of expansion a few years ago and the service and candidates they were able to find us have been first rate. They are a boutique recruitment agency and you can definitely feel the more personalised approach through the entire process. Insight was efficient and reliable all the way from the initial briefing and didn't flood us with half qualified candidates. A smaller, more targeted shortlist saved me and my team time and their fill rate was very high. A valued partner that I highly recommend to any organisation needing recruitment support.
Anthony LococoDirector, Lococo Build
A few years ago I reached a point where I needed to start to build my business' profile online. Mel at Insight Resourcing found us an amazing designer and digital marketer that was the perfect fit for us both from a skills and cultural perspective. It was a really painless process and we got a great result without the headaches. Great at what they do.
Emily DaleHR Director, The Guardian Australia
Insight Resourcing have been my go-to for all digital and commercial operational roles over the past few years, and they have successfully placed some of our most successful hires. Adam is in a league of his own when it comes to professionalism and integrity, something I've struggled to find in other agents I've worked with over the years, and I've always been impressed with his deep and broad market knowledge of the industry. I consider Adam more of a strategic partner to our business than a recruiter, and I have no hesitation recommending him (or Insight Resourcing) to others.
Richard LehoczManaging Director, Carat
I've known, worked with and relied on Adam for a range of my recruitment needs for over ten years and throughout this time have come to highly appreciate his deep experience and skills in this space. Adam and the greater Insight Resourcing team have placed countless candidates for me across a range of areas within the digital media ecosystem and all have been the right fit in terms of skills and experience whilst also great people culturally. I'd absolutely recommend using Insight for your recruiting needs.
Luke StronachCEO, 1Komma5
Our business has experienced significant national growth in recent years and it was through our exclusive partnership with Insight Resourcing that this was able to happen. Insight's understanding of our business and internal culture means that we have a trusted recruitment partner who are a genuine extension of our organisation, a true partnership. We have worked exclusively with Adam and Mel for many years now and look forward to continuing our relationship into the future. Can't recommend their knowledge and service highly enough.
Lee MasonDirector of Marketplace, Drive.com.au
As National Head of Marketplaces, my job is to build a Marketplace Sales team that can perform in a competitive landscape, and Insight Resourcing has been central to that for a number of years. Adam and the team understand what great looks like in marketplace and media sales, and they consistently bring me people who can step in, build revenue and fit our culture. They're responsive, honest and genuinely invested in getting the hire right, not just filling the role. I've been nothing but impressed, and Insight Resourcing will remain my go-to partner as we keep growing the team.
Ken BestGeneral Manager, Southern Star Windows and Doors
For the past five years, Insight Resourcing has been our trusted supplier of Sales and Territory Account Management talent. In a business like ours, the right person in the right territory makes all the difference, and Adam and Mel have consistently understood that. They take the time to learn what we need, they bring us people who can do the job and fit our culture, and they're easy to work with from the first brief to the final offer. The relationship has lasted because the results have, and I'd recommend them to any business looking to build a stronger Sales team.
Jenny ParkesManaging Director, Audience 360
For six years, Insight Resourcing was my go-to partner for building the Audience 360 team. In programmatic advertising, you need people who can understand a complex product, sell it with confidence and keep pace in a market that moves fast, and Adam has always understood that. Across my time as Managing Director, Insight Resourcing placed the vast majority of our team, and I trusted them with that responsibility because they never once treated it as just filling a role. They knew our business, they knew the market, and they consistently brought me people who delivered. I'd recommend them without hesitation to any leader building a Sales team.
Mason RookCommercial Director, The Guardian & Pedestrian Group
I've worked with Insight Resourcing for over six years, across two different businesses, and that says everything about how much I trust them. Whether I was building the Sales team at Pedestrian Group or The Guardian, Insight Resourcing understood the brief, the market and the kind of people who would thrive in the role. They're a genuinely boutique operation, with the specialist knowledge and the hands-on, personal service that larger agencies struggle to match. The candidates they put forward were always well prepared, and the process was professional and honest from start to finish. Insight Resourcing is the first call I make when I need to build a Sales team, and I'll keep calling them for as long as I'm hiring.
