What People Say

In 2014 – 15, I had the pleasure of working for Eden Ritchie as a locum Consultant for approximately 1 year.  I was very fortunate to have mostly back to back assignments/placements in various places from the Torres Strait to Central Queensland.  It was a very exciting time in my career both professionally and personally.  Sue from Eden Ritchie was absolutely fabulous in ensuring that communication between the client and I was timely, contracting precise, flights and accommodation organised, and keeping in contact during the assignment to ensure all was going well.  Sue also sourced subsequent placements for me which ensured that work was suitable and ongoing.  I have since taken up permanent employment again, but my ‘gap year’ with Eden Ritchie was a richly rewarding experience.  I would highly recommend Eden Ritchie to anybody seeking assistance with assignments/placements in the future.

The depth of expertise and experience at ERR created a smooth and straightforward process and delivered a very successful outcome. The team at ERR worked closely with us from the beginning of the recruitment process to understand and interpret our needs, and provided excellent insights into capability requirements. The service was impeccably professional, efficient and very responsive to our needs – from reviewing the position descriptions, to interviewing candidates, through to thorough reference checks. I would not hesitate to recommend ERR to others seeking a high quality, focused recruitment service.

Kim Woolgar Senior Director, Funding and Contract Management Unit, Queensland Health

I am emailing to thank you both for the excellent service you provided to me in the recent recruitment to the Executive role in the Darling Downs. Your timeliness and professionalism when responding to email and phone call queries and questions, the advice you provided in terms of both the application and interview process, and the consideration you showed in the follow up period post interview were nothing short of exceptional. I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to colleagues and I will also have no hesitation myself in procuring your services in the future when recruiting high quality, experienced and capable employees.

Annette Scott Executive Director Allied Health, Darling Downs Hospital and Health Service

I have commissioned Justine Eden, Director, Eden Ritchie Recruitment on a number of recent occasions to assist in the recruitment and selection of senior executive service officers in the Department of Education and Training. Justine has been invaluable in her organisational, communication and critical thinking skills bringing to the process a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between the organisation’s complex operating environments, the key attributes of each role and contemporary human resources best practice. Justine has also provided assistance to the panels through her objective analysis of “best fit” between the positions and candidates. Justine’s processes are professional and thorough with advice and support provided in a timely way. I would recommend Justine’s recruitment services to any organisation

Gabrielle Sinclair Assistant Director-General, Strategic Policy and Portfolio Relations - Department of Education Training and Employment

The Division has used ERR on a number of occasions now to secure outstanding people into significant roles in our team. Our experience has been very successful and the professional way ERR has delivered a good outcome has made our task very straightforward. ERR have been thorough, the backgrounding impeccable and the interview process has run like clockwork. I have the highest regard for Justine Eden (whom we have dealt with) and would not hesitate in recommending the Company to any prospective client.

John Glaister Former Director-General - Department of National Parks, Recreation, Sport and Racing

Eden Ritchie have placed me twice in the last few years and I have been highly impressed with the service each time.  I have known Tiffany Kamo for a number of years when I contracted to QTC and she has always provided exceptional customer service, persistence, determination being two of her key strengths as a recruiter along with a willingness to go the extra mile.  More recently I have worked with Ben Wright who has also displayed these attributes and has been delightful to work with.  Both Tiffany and Ben make you feel you are not just another name but a valued client by keeping in regular touch and providing progress reports throughout the placement.  They are both proactive in their approach to finding the next contract and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.  I’ll continue to keep them in my ‘go to’ list both when looking for my next contract and when I need project staff.
