Laura Longstaff

Director - Sydney

As Director for our Sydney Branch, I lead our Life Sciences, Operations and Business Support Divisions and personally recruit senior and executive level roles across healthcare with a strong network in Supply Chain and Procurement.
I have been in the recruitment industry since 2005 and have been a part of the Healthcare Professionals Group since early 2011.
I have dedicated teams specialising in all levels, across all disciplines, in permanent, contract and temporary recruitment within healthcare.

I regularly support clients  by presenting market insights, training and coaching on recruitment best practice and coach candidates on resume writing and interview techniques.

  • ​As a recruitment consultant Laura has maintained a unique standard of service and responsiveness in my search for a new role in supply chain. Her professional approach has been consistent in the clear and regular communication, industry experience, good research into specific roles, resulting in considered recommendation of prospective roles which have align my skills and work experience with the specific job requirements.

  • Laura has been my main sounding board and has provided me with counsel on career advice, has successfully placed me in roles and has offered services from writing CV’s to setting up LinkedIn profiles. A true all-rounder, with a vast array of industry knowledge and someone who has a genuine passion for the people that she works with. Laura will always be the first recruiter I will reach out to as an employer or an employee. I can’t recommend her services highly enough.

  • ​Over the number of years that Laura has represented me, I have found her to be one of the most professional, ethical, dedicated and passionate recruiters I have ever worked with. Her ability to make a genuine connection with people, tap into exactly what it is that they are looking for, and subsequently scope out the most suitable roles for any prospective clients is unique.

Her ability to consistently support these needs confirms she is acutely aware of my personal goals while also being on top of all the movements within our industry.
