Recruitment-agency and labour-hire business owners
Keep people moving.
Carry less of the coordination.
Candidate follow-up, client updates, documents, and the work behind an assignment can fill the day. Make the next action clearer without adding another system to chase.
Practical support for the owner, the team, and the work between them.
The work behind the work
You know this part of the job.
“We’re chasing people and updating systems.”
A conversation creates a next action, but someone still has to find the right place and keep others informed.
“The placement isn’t the end of the work.”
A start, an assignment, or a change still needs documents, clear responsibilities, and follow-through.
“Everyone needs the owner to join the dots.”
Recruiters, administrators, clients, and workers each have part of the context. The handover comes back to you.
Choose how you want to work
Three ways to make it work.
Use the tools yourself, build with us, or give us an agreed brief to deliver. We’ll help you choose the right fit before you commit.
01 / DIY
Do it yourself.
With the tools and guidance.
Attend hosted sessions, use Poko software, and do the work yourself. Build skills and keep useful work as you go.
- Companion · Load HandoffPrepare a clearer handover around placement or assignment administration.
- Companion · Meeting ActionsReview next steps from permitted client or internal meeting notes.
- Weekly ResetMake room for business development alongside the agency’s daily queue.
Products, workflows, and access depend on the plan you choose.

Give us the brief.
We deliver the work.
We agree the specification, price, supported access, and acceptance checks. You provide the approved inputs and access; we build, test, and hand over the agreed solution.
- Build and test one document-preparation, task-update, or administrative coordination workflow.
- Deliver a tailored ChatGPT & AI Workshop around appropriate agency tasks.
A defined scope and quote before work starts, with the agreed checks and handover included.
Explore services & starting pricesStart with what you have
Make more of the recruitment tools you already use.
You may already pay for an ATS, CRM, job boards, or assignment tools. We look at the repeated work and handovers around them before suggesting an additional subscription or a change of platform.
- ATS & recruitment CRM
- Job advertising & sourcing
- Onboarding & document tools
- Timesheets, payroll & training
What a useful change could look like
Two kinds of staffing business. Two practical examples.
We choose the task, check what is supported, and agree what a useful result looks like before building.
Approved placement details
Keep the permitted client and candidate context together.
- Human review
Recruiter checks
Confirm outstanding questions and the next action.
Follow-through owned
Make the update or onboarding handover clear.
Assignment information
Organise the approved start and administration details.
- Human review
A person checks
Flag missing documents, timesheet questions, or exceptions.
Next action assigned
Direct the follow-up to the responsible person.
Administrative examples to scope. Candidate selection and employment decisions remain with the responsible people.
A clear scope. Something useful to keep.
Specific services. A useful result.
These are some of the services we can scope around your business. Ask us to deliver a defined piece of work, or discuss building it together through Design Partners.
Workplace Cognitive Load & Team Function
Find where follow-through keeps stalling.
Follow one candidate, client, or assignment-administration handover and identify the repeated work.
A scoped workflow review and practical priorities.
Your First AI Automation
Give one repeat task a better route.
Assess suitable document preparation, task updates, or coordination using approved inputs and supported access.
One defined workflow, with review and exception handling agreed first.
ChatGPT & AI Workshops
Build useful AI habits around real tasks.
Practise appropriate administrative and preparation work, with clear information handling and human checking.
A tailored workshop and examples your team can apply.
AI service prices are starting prices in Australian dollars, including GST. We agree the final scope and price in writing. See the full AI rate card. Workshop delivery, supported connections, and implementation are agreed for your business.
What the repeated work costs
The coordination competes with relationships and delivery.
Every repeated update or missing-document chase uses attention that could go into candidate care, client relationships, or developing the business. Choose one handover and make it easier to complete.
Put your own numbers to one repeated task
Choose one task. Estimate how often it happens and the time each repetition takes.
Use your own figures. This estimates existing effort, not a promised saving.
The person behind the business matters
A plan beyond the next urgent request.
Weekly Reset helps you make room for client work, team leadership, and business development. Weekly Reset is hosted live: join the stream, follow the guided planning, and work on your own week. Join hosted Poko Sessions for guided, practical work you can apply to your business.
Support that fits how you work
Built for all brains. Informed by the complex ones. ADHD, autism, dyslexia, or another way of thinking can be part of the conversation when it matters to you. Tell us what helps: written information, time to process, or a different way to take part.
Explore different ways of thinkingWhen you want help putting the pieces together
Keep improving the business.
With someone working alongside you.
Agree ongoing custom work around supported systems, useful content, and the handovers between your people and customers. Keep the implementation connected to the way your agency works.
Design Partners: at least three months and A$2,000/month minimum in custom services at agreed reduced rates. A$6,000 minimum initial commitment, agreed separately.
See how Design Partners worksBefore you choose
A few things you might be wondering.
Start small if that is what fits. We agree the work before it begins.
Is this for recruitment agencies or labour-hire businesses?
Both can bring a workflow problem. We distinguish placement work from ongoing assignment administration and scope the work around the business you actually run.
Will you replace our ATS or CRM?
We start with your existing tools and processes. Supported access, connections, and any changes are checked before an implementation is agreed.
Will AI screen or select candidates?
The starting examples focus on administration and coordination. Candidate selection, suitability, and employment decisions remain with the responsible people; any different proposed use needs a separate assessment.
A rough idea is enough
Which handover keeps turning into another chase?
Tell us what you want to make easier. Request a free callback or an email reply, and we’ll discuss the service, scope, and quote. We’ll help you decide whether DIY sessions and software, a Design Partner engagement, or a completed project is the better fit before you commit.
