For over 45 years
Horner is one of Australia’s longest-established privately owned consultancies, boasting decades of experience serving our client’s unique recruitment needs. From the boardroom to the warehouse and in government, we have you covered.
Our Story
Our company story begins in the 1970s, in the infancy of Australia’s now $11 billion recruitment sector. From these humble beginnings we have flourished alongside the industry as a whole, playing our part down the decades in shaping it into what it is today.
An exciting chapter began in 2005 with the acquisition of Horner by current owner Peter Langford. Taking over from the retiring founder, Peter saw many opportunities for expansion, taking the business into a period of unprecedented growth. This period saw the business gain structure, expand its service offering and diversify its client base.
Our Capabilities
Despite these changes, we’ve never wavered from our original mission of delivering recruitment built on real relationships. We take our partnerships with our clients seriously, applying a collaborative and structured approach to permanent and temporary recruitment that recognises that your organisation is unique and requires a unique HR solution. We conduct a comprehensive needs analysis ensuring that we fully understand your business, its culture, its goals, its environment and the role before we begin the hiring process. This careful, considered approach ensures that we can rapidly narrow down the talent pool to only the most suitable candidates, helping you find better team-members faster.
We pride ourselves on our ability to provide a personalised recruitment service backed by the resources needed to help even the largest client in the most demanding industry. Horner supports more than 100 businesses every day, helping companies big and small across blue- and white-collar industries meet short term staffing needs, improve their HR practices, build and develop their teams and keep their staff safe and healthy. Offering a fully end-to-end HR consultancy service to major corporate businesses, small startups, not-for-profit organisations and government agencies, we have the breadth and depth of expertise required to help your team achieve its goals.
