“I have worked closely with Rachelle Russell over the last year and have found her to be the ultimate recruitment agent. Rachelle’s service is impeccable. She is great at working out which candidates have the right competencies and will fit in with our team and at finding leaders that suit our organisation and our kaupapa outlook.”
