With a large, powerful database and extensive networks regionally and globally, The Lucas Group can access skilled professionals to meet your business needs.
The Lucas Group works on a retained basis, we employ a rigorous process and apply a great deal more due diligence into the definition and execution of the mandate than the contingency model.
Under a retained model, the recruiting process is highly structured and well defined. The retained search model targets the best available talent, not only active job seekers, who do not necessarily possess the necessary skill set.
The perceived disadvantage of the retained search is that the Client has to pay, regardless of the outcome. However, this obligation to pay, by the client, we repay with an obligation to perform. When you partner with The Lucas Group we make a commitment to find the person you are looking for.
The Lucas Group stand by our rigorous and standardised recruitment process. We guarantee each candidate and will replace them at no further cost to your business.
The Lucas Group can develop documents that will detail the role and sell the opportunity after gaining an understanding and insight into your company’s culture, goals and growth plans.
Relevant background checking of a candidate’s employment history will include a summarised written report from someone the candidate has reported directly to and can validate their skills and experience. The duties and responsibilities of the role and the company culture will be explained to the referee and used to determine their suitability for the role. We will also explore areas of what is the best work environment for the candidate to work in, strengths and weaknesses and their management/leadership style when applicable.
We believe this is an effective tool in any recruitment process. We can incorporate job suitability testing into your project and you will be able to develop the assessment to suit your business. Talk to us how we can source the best-suited candidate for your team.
We will be actively involved and engaged with you throughout the recruitment process. We will provide advice and guidance when needed to ensure there is a good “fit” between company and candidate. The Lucas Group will design a Position Description and Person Profile for the role to help identify the key requirements the candidates will need to possess to be successful in and suitable for the role. We can be actively involved onsite on the client’s premises to conduct or facilitate the interviews and selection process for the final stage of interviews.
The Lucas Group will assist with remuneration negotiation and finalising the employment contract if required. We are able to provide high quality and legally compliant employment contracts and engagement letters that have been reviewed by Australian business lawyers if requested.
We will also be actively involved with the review process throughout the probationary period.
We can assist you in identifying potential opportunities through the Agribusiness sector and assist you to identify the skills and qualifications you may require to pursue a career in Agribusiness. For a discussion on opportunities speak to one of our team members.
