Industry Events

Networking events for the recruitment industry in Australia. 

Captain’s Table has a long history of bringing together owners, leaders and consultants within the Recruitment industry.

Our networking events bring valuable information, industry leaders and speakers that help everyone in the industry. 

Our events are curated so they are relevant to agency owners, CEO’s, managers and leadership and we also conduct events focussed on consultants and team leaders within agencies. 

Networking builds relationships

In recruitment we know and understand the importance of building relationships and networking with your peers and other industry professionals. For more than 8 years Captain’s Table has been conducting events that challenge, inspire and connect recruitment professionals around Australia. 

During COVID-19 we moved to an online model which served us well and allowed us to keep in touch and stay up to date with employment policy and legislation, security, tech and more. Now our participants tell us they prefer face to face and in person events, so we endeavour to do both. 

Meetings consist of professionally facilitated discussion or guest speakers on critical industry topics. Captain’s Table offers management support, interaction, networking, learning and development opportunities, but with a much sharper focus on the recruitment industry.

Established back in 1998 then reformed in 2016, Captain’s Table now has over 180 owners or directors of recruitment firms attending on a regular basis with meeting numbers ranging in size from 20 to 60 attendees each month in both Sydney and Melbourne.

Industry Events

Recruitment Agency Owners

Captain’s Table has a long history of bringing agency owners and founders together to discuss shared concerns and industry insights. Our event topics and speakers are always relevant and owners tell us they value the opportunity to network with others in similar positions.

C-Level & Managers

C- Level Leadership and managers gain inspiration and open transparent discussion from those who are experiencing the same market and business climate. Many of our events are attended by management level executives for knowledge and information to help make better decisions.

Team Leaders

Team Leaders and those developing their management skills benefit from the opportunity to hear what industry experts and specialists tell them. They gain tools and skills in dealing with their team and leading the business to success.

As the ‘main’ players in the industry consultants benefit from networking, listening to others and sharing insights. Our events provide consultants the feeling that they are part of a wider profession and regular attendance equips these consultants with the tools for tomorrow.

Tony Hall

Business Advisor & Founder Captains Table

“Short, punchy and I’ve always come away with at least 1 actionable idea or reminder (e.g. “we know what to do, but don’t do what we know” as you reminded us in January)”

“I enjoyed getting out of the office to learn something new. I liked that it was only between 12pm – 2pm so it didn’t interfere in my day too much. The speaker was informative and passionate about leadership which made the session very engaging.”

“Recruitment leaders getting together and sharing ideas and best practice for the betterment of the industry. There seems to be full transparency, even in with direct competitors in the room.”

“I find the topics very relevant, speakers are engaging, the cost is reasonable and it’s value for money.”
