Celebrating 30 Years of Frontline Recruitment Group

What began back in 1995, in a humble shed with a big dream, has grown into one of Australia and New Zealand’s leading specialist recruitment networks. From those early days, our mission has stayed the same: to connect talented people with career-defining opportunities and to help businesses find the right people to grow and succeed.

As Sarah Vockler, Owner of Frontline Retail Sydney and Melbourne, puts it: “We nurture people and look after them from the start of the process to the finish—and afterwards.” That care, that genuine commitment to people, has always been at the heart of what we do.

Over the past three decades, we’ve built more than just a business—we’ve built relationships, communities, and countless success stories. Our reputation for personalised service, industry expertise, and authentic connection with our clients and candidates remains the foundation of everything we do.

A Journey of Growth & Success

From a single office into a thriving network of specialist recruitment agencies, Frontline Recruitment has grown to support seven key industries across two countries—Australia and New Zealand. With 130+ dedicated consultants, we’ve proudly placed 55,000+ candidates and helped over 3,500 clients find the right talent in Retail, Hospitality, Health, Education, Construction, Finance, and Manufacturing.

In 2020, we entered an exciting new chapter by joining forces with Express Employment Professionals, the world’s #1 staffing franchise. This partnership connected us to a global network of 860+ offices across the United States, Canada, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand—backed by the strength and resources of an international leader in recruitment.

While our footprint continues to grow, our mission stays the same: helping people build fulfilling careers and supporting businesses to thrive with the right talent by their side.

30 Years of Making a Difference

At the heart of our success are our dedicated Frontline Agency Owners, whose passion and expertise have helped thousands of candidates find purposeful roles and businesses build high-performing teams.
