Australian construction & engineering

Know who's hiring before the job ad exists.

What we do

Every week, companies win contracts and get projects approved. Every one of those projects needs to be staffed — and the recruiter who's in the room first wins the brief. Caerus watches the signals, finds the decision-maker, and books the meeting. Our clients place the roles.

How we're different
01

Signals, not lists.

We don't buy databases. We read live contract awards and development approvals, daily.

02

Revenue, not activity.

No dashboards full of "impressions". One number: fee revenue from clients we sourced versus what you paid us.

03

Paid on results.

Our fee model is built around placements that actually happen, not promises.

How it works

Three moves. From signal to a meeting on your calendar.

No lists. No sequences. One signal, one owner, one meeting.

A signal fires

A company wins a contract or gets a major DA approved. We read it the day it lands — not weeks later, when everyone else does.

We find the decision-maker

The person who owns the hiring problem that signal just created. Not a generic inbox, not a gatekeeper — the one who signs.

You take the meeting

Booked straight into your calendar. Your team places the roles — we go find the next signal.

A small founding group.

We're working with a small founding group of construction & engineering recruitment firms. If that's you, get in touch — two founding places, priced to be a no-brainer.
