“An exceptional recruiter who stands out. Jeff genuinely cares about the candidates journey and aspirations in a field where many recruiters only prioritise the hiring company's needs. His transparency and honesty in communication made the often stressful job search experience much more manageable. Thank you, Jeff, for your exceptional support and being a beacon of integrity and professionalism in the recruitment industry.”

​"It was my first time interacting with Sarah on recruitment. We found the process to be quite smooth from our perspective as Sharp and Carter had access to a pool of candidates that we had not seen previously. Overall, very pleased with our interactions and would use Sharp and Carter again."

Nathan, Hiring Manager, Woolworths, Treasury Manager Role

​"Patrick invested the time and interest up front to get know the business, the environment, the finance leader and the family business culture. This hugely benefitted his quality judgement on the "fit" of potential candidates and his assessments were spot on. We achieved high value from the process due to the quality of candidates recommended for interview."

"Leigh Jones understands the business and genuinely works to have a long-term business relationship. It does not feel like it is about quick profits...but about business partnering. Leigh understands all business and have ups and downs and he is happy to support through those tough periods albeit, there may not be much work/immediate profits for Sharp & Carter. The relationship with Sharp & Carter is built around trust and transparency."
