Building Your Business

Finesse Consulting has established a reputation for delivering high calibre candidates to our Construction clients on a permanent and contract engagement. We are vertically integrated with our clients and specialise in recruiting for project personnel from Supervisor to Project Director level, up to General Management and Board level positions.

Our clients are predominantly head contractors, across tier one, tier two, tier three, operating across all asset classes as well as fitout and refurbishment contractors and high end Residential builders.

  • Our clients work exclusively with us because we have unparalleled industry experience and expertise in the construction market, a proven record of delivering the best candidates and a bespoke service that sets us apart. Finesse offers a personalised approach, working in true partnership with our clients to ensure that we consistently present stand-out candidates who are a perfect fit for your business.

    We take the time to listen, understand and come up with strategies to attract candidates to place in difficult to fill roles. We make sure we are intimately familiar with your core business, your corporate structure and your unique company culture. This means that our candidates meet the exact skill set required and, importantly, are the right cultural fit for your business.

    We have an incredibly strong network of construction professionals and the calibre of candidates we attract is unrivalled.  Our strategies and processes evolve with the industry to serve you better. We only ever deal with a small number of manageable vacancies at any one time. This strategic decision ensures we can devote the time and personal attention required to secure high level candidates in a timely manner.

    Our approach is straightforward and transparent, and you will only be contacted about a candidate if we feel they will add significant value to your organisation. You will be presented with an in-depth profile and detailed industry references. We understand our candidates, what drives them and what their long-term career aspirations look like. The majority of candidates we work with are registered exclusively with us and are not active in the market, giving you access to candidates you would not otherwise hear about

Client Testimonials

ANDREW OWENS / Construction Director / Probuild

Finesse Consulting have worked with Probuild Constructions Australia for over six years and I have personally dealt with them for four years. During that time numerous high quality, skilled construction professionals have been introduced to us by Finesse and successfully employed by Probuild. We have benefitted from Sara’s wide industry knowledge, network and her ability to identify and introduce skilled candidates. Finesse has taken care to listen to our briefs and understand our culture and has done a great job in ensuring a good fit with the great people employed.

JAY WALTER / Director - JWH Group

I’ve worked with Sara for a number of years now having helped place many people into our organisation. One of our strengths is our culture which comes from finding the right people who will be the right fit with our core values and attitude. Sara has taken the time and invested the energy to understand our business knowing who will be a good fit and what we need to be looking for. Her professionalism and attention to us is greatly appreciated as she maintains regular contact checking in with how we are going but also keeping us up to date with people she meets and trends occurring across the industry.

ADRIAN ZORZI / Director / Adrian Zorzi

Sara Salomone from Finesse Consulting has time and time again placed the perfect candidate in front of me when I have been looking for additional members of our team of construction professionals. Not only does she completely understand our skill set requirements but also the attitude and ethos requirements of our company. I would not use anyone else to find the perfect fit for our team. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

JAMES SHERIFF / Project Director / Icon Construction NZ

I have known Sara Salomone for over 7 years when she was highly recommended to me by others for construction recruitment when I was at Scentre Group in Western Australia.

Sara clearly has a passion in what she does and clearly understood the brief and requirements. Her network, connections and knowledge in the construction industry are incomparable with other recruiters I have worked with. Only the strongest highest calibre candidates were offered. Nothing was too hard for her and her consultants, and they always met our expectations. Due to her ability to find the right people we engaged several candidates ranging from junior position to more senior level roles over the last seven years through myself.

Sara and her team communicate well and provide continuous updates and follow ups throughout the process. To find the right fit of candidates she studied and understood the company culture and the dynamics of the team we were putting together. Dealing with Finesse was very professional, with excellent communication and collaboration and with the highest integrity.

Since relocating to New Zealand I have continually kept in touch with Sara and Michael who continue to be helpful in offering valuable advice and reviewing opportunities for Australians wanting to come to NZ.

ROBERT SHAW / Director / Daly & Shaw Building Pty Ltd.

I have known Sara Salomone for the past five years through her role working in the Recruitment sector for the Building & Construction industry. Having worked as a high-achieving employee for many years, Sara’s now looking at offering a personalised service herself and has recently set up her own recruitment company based here in Perth.

Sara has a very sound understanding of the industry and it’s requirements and demands that businesses have when it comes to finding good staff, and I believe that she would be able to provide both an efficient and effective service in this regard. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone considering recruiting staff through a professional recruitment service.

DON VINCIGUERRA / Managing Director / Capital Build

We find Sara to be highly motivated and genuine in her approach to recruiting. Sara is well positioned in the industry having a vast data base of applicants . Along with her unique ability to match the candidates for the position, and the values of the business.

DAVID SERRAO / Group Construction Manager / Steadman Building Group

Having worked with Sara Salomone for over four years, I have found Sara to be very thorough with all candidates she presents. Sara has a strong understanding of the business culture when looking for recruits. What I appreciate most about working with Sara is her ability to have an honest approach in all maters and placing candidates that will fit in with the company for the long term. I would highly recommend Sara Salomone to other business’s looking for a consistent high level of staffing.

MARK HOGAN / Director / Redmark Pty Ltd & Amelia Developments Pty Ltd

I have had the pleasure of knowing and dealing with Sara for the past 6 years and during that time have found her to be above reproach in all aspects whether they be professional or personal.

Sara has a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the Western Australian construction industry and has built up a wide network of contacts at all levels which enables her to easily source candidates from junior office clerks through to senior management levels and any specialty areas in between.

Whenever I require new staff Sara is always the first point of contact and has never failed to fill the position with the right person.

I have no hesitation in recommending Sara to fulfil all of your HR requirements.

PETER WOOD / General Manager / Rural Building Company

Over the past 5 years, Sara has worked with our business to assist in recruiting staff at all levels of the organisation.

We have relied on Sara’s industry contacts, and her outstanding network to ensure that our search uncovers not only prospective employee’s with the right set of skills, but the right people, the people that fit the culture and ethos of our business.

Sara has proven time and time again that she understands exactly who we are, what we stand for and who we need to grow our business and add to our success.

If you just want a recruitment professional to find people, then don’t contact Sara, if on the other hand, you want a business partner that will work with you to develop and grow your business, then I recommend that you meet with her for a chat and see for yourself what she has to offer.

TRENT PITTER / General Manager / Novus Homes

I have been working with Sara over the past the past 8 years. Sara has worked closely with myself and Novus Homes and has sourced and recruited core staff on the technical side of the business. Sara has an excellent understanding of the housing market. Her ability to consistently deliver high value candidates to us over the years and her professional and ethical approach has really set her apart from her competitors.

Sara is very passionate about what she does and really takes the time to understand exactly what we are looking for. She knows our company culture, who will best fit in with Novus Homes and she always presents quality candidates to us.

Sara has added significant value to our business and she will be an integral part of our business in the future.

EMMA GRIFFIN / General Manager / Residential Attitudes

My experience of recruiting agents is that they tend to listen to what you want and then try to fit their available candidates to the role which leads to a less than ideal outcome. Sara really takes the time to understand the corporate culture and personalities within an organisation. She has an excellent understanding of what her candidates need to have in terms of skill sets and depth & breadth of experience for a wide variety of roles within the building industry.

She develops long term relationship with her builder clients. She is very responsive to our requirements, listens and absorbs feedback and has an outstanding work ethic. She understands that it can take time to fit the right person to the right role and she looks for the right longterm solution. We have been absolutely delighted with both the people she has found for us and the way she has managed the recruitment, placement and followup of each person. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking to establish or develop a team.
