Experienced Perigon Group team delivers strong year end results

Not for Profit, Aged Care and Financial Services - these are the industries with which Perigon Group worked most closely in the in FY24.


The recently completed financial year was a successful one for PeopleIN’s professional services recruitment business, with strong placement numbers across a wide range of industries – Property, Retail, Education and Legal among other industries topping the list of sectors in which placements were made.


There’s been notable growth in key and emerging sectors but for Melbourne based Director Caroline Guthrie, it’s the focus on building strong, stable relationships with clients which makes her most proud and sets Perigon Group apart in a competitive industry.


“One of our greatest strengths is the experience of our leadership team,” Caroline said. “Together, the directors of our business have a 116 years of combined recruitment experience … hopefully, that doesn’t just make us appear old!”


“Jokes aside, what it does mean is we’re able to go beyond the role of generalist recruiter. We know the industries with which we work very well and we’re lucky to have built deep and sustained relationships with clients over a long period.”

“Having those deep connections, and understanding the specific needs of our clients, means we focus on more than simply the role being recruited – we’re familiar with the culture, specific skills and fit needed for placements to become successful contributors to the business.”

“It’s for this reason we also place import on retaining our best people and laying the foundations for succession planning. In the past 12 months alone, we’ve recognised skills and success and promoted three of our team to Associate Director roles. We’ve rewarded their great results and overall contribution but also shown how we value them and want them to remain part of our team in the longer term.


” Perigon Group’s forward-thinking approach has set it up for continued success. By leveraging strong client relationships, building new ones in emerging markets and with a focus on nurturing internal talent to sustain this growth, the group anticipates achieving even greater results in the year ahead.

“It was just going to be a little job for a couple of months, when I first came back from overseas”. 14 years ago Karlee Berg began her career with Tribe Workforce Solutions as an Administration Assistant. Today, after performing every role in between (and often more than one at once!), she’s now the General Manager. “I trained as a beauty therapist and I'd been working overseas, as the day spa manager on cruise ships. It’s a hectic lifestyle and I was pretty burnt out when I got home and needed a break,” Karlee said. “I think I'd only been back in the country for a month and a friend, who was working with AWX (another of PeopleIN’s brands), said the directors had started this new business, focused on the hospitality sector. They didn’t have admin or account staff, just a general manager, and people from AWX were just jumping in to help where they could.
