The company was established in 2005 specifically as the recruitment arm for de JAGER Executive Search. In June 2019 the executive search expertise was consolidated into Oryx People to expand the offering and know-how within the company. Our dedicated team have over 50 years of combined recruitment and industry experience. We are widely recognised as trusted advisors, creating long lasting relationships with both clients and candidates. Working both in Australia and internationally, we have developed, through our reputation, a substantial and diverse global network of passive and active candidates to secure the best talent.

Some of our notable highlights include:

• The successful engagement when establishing their Australian operations by several global automotive brands in the prestige and volume sectors, to recruit the leadership team from the CEO down.
• Recognition as the pre-eminent recruitment partner for senior executive talent within the Automotive industry having placed key CEO’s / COO’s in the APAC region.

We also have considerable executive search experience at the C-Suite and Board level outside automotive, both locally and internationally. This includes mandates in B2B and B2C industry segments including FMCG, NFP, Industrial, and Life Sciences.

Additionally, we are a member of the peak body RCSA (Recruitment, Consulting and Staffing Association Australia and New Zealand) and adhere to their Code for Professional Conduct.

Why are we different?

Our experience has shown that companies tend to hire successful candidates on their skills and experience, but frequently part company when the culture and values do not align. We assist our clients in maximising their competitive advantage by seeking candidates that align with their values and business goals.
