Ever wondered what a career in Allied Health recruitment is really like? We sat down with two of our Allied Health managers at cmr to explore the fast-paced, people-first world of healthcare recruitment in Australia. From career changers to rural adventures, here’s what makes working at cmr uniquely rewarding and how you can be part of it.

You Don’t Need a Recruitment Background to Succeed

At cmr, we believe passion and people skills outweigh traditional recruitment experience. Many of our top recruiters have come from surprising backgrounds—retail, beauty therapy, real estate, and even debt collection.

“We look for people who love talking to others and can build strong relationships,” our managers shared.

If you’re confident, curious, and care about making a difference, Allied Health recruitment could be your perfect next step.

Rapid Growth, Real Opportunity

What started as a team of five has grown into six dedicated divisions with 17 recruiters—and at cmr, we’re still growing.

“We’ve launched new teams and expanded our reach. Now, we’re looking for the next generation of leaders.”

Whether you’re looking for Allied Health jobs or seeking a recruitment role in healthcare, there’s space for you at cmr.

What Makes a Great Allied Health Leader?

We’re after dynamic, people-first leaders who thrive in fast-paced environments and love supporting others.

“If you’ve managed people before and get a buzz from team success, this is your kind of role.”

We also value authenticity—our culture is collaborative and fun, so flexibility and approachability go a long way.

Why Choose Allied Health Recruitment?

Every day is different in this space. You might be working across multiple divisions or managing a diverse team.

“It’s not one-size-fits-all. Clients are passionate and genuinely care about who they hire—we love helping them find the right match.”

That variety keeps things interesting and makes every placement feel impactful.

Making a Difference in Rural Communities

One of the most meaningful parts of our work is placing healthcare professionals in rural and remote parts of Australia.

“Helping someone from the UK or Ireland experience Mount Isa or Alice Springs is incredibly rewarding.”

Whether it’s a dentist relocating with her family or a locum landing their dream contract, these placements change lives—for both the professionals and the communities they serve.

Challenges? Absolutely. But Also Huge Wins.

Like any fast-growing team, we’ve faced our share of hurdles—CRM updates, shifting markets, and everything in between.

“This past year’s been tough, but it’s also been our most successful yet.”

Despite industry fluctuations, we’ve taken more market share and come out stronger, with continued growth on the horizon.
