The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:
Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.
This is a hybrid recruitment/HR/culture role built for someone who wants to grow with the business rather than into a fixed job description. You'll be the face of the business for every new hire, from first interview through to onboarding and early-stage support, while helping shape how the company attracts and keeps good people as it scales.
This role won't stay still. As the business grows, so will the remit, likely expanding into wider HR, people ops, or team leadership. We need someone comfortable with that ambiguity, not someone looking for a fixed lane.
What You'll Be Doing (Phase 1)
Owning end-to-end recruitment: writing job ads, sourcing, screening, interviewing
Acting as the first point of contact for candidates, setting the tone for the business
Designing and running onboarding so new starters land well and stick
Building out early HR processes (contracts, right-to-work, probation reviews, basic policies)
Being the informal "go-to" person for new joiners in their first few months
Where It Could Go
Building a full onboarding/induction programme as headcount grows
Taking on broader HR generalist responsibilities (performance, retention, culture)
Potentially building and leading a small talent/people team
Involvement in employer branding and culture initiatives
What We Need From You
Adaptability, non-negotiable; this role will change shape multiple times in year one
Genuine enjoyment of people-facing work, first impressions matter to you
Some grounding in recruitment, HR, or onboarding (doesn't need to be years of experience)
Comfortable working without a fully defined playbook
Organised enough to manage multiple hiring processes without things slipping
Who This Won't Suit
Someone who wants a fixed job spec, a predictable 9-to-5 scope, or a role that looks the same in 12 months as it does on day one.
Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age
