Helping our clients find the right talent for their businesses

Hiring in Brisbane and tired wasting time sifting through CVs that don’t hit the mark? It’s time to start working smarter, not harder!  At Purple Playground, we’re not your average recruitment agency in Brisbane. We help fast-growing businesses hire better — faster, smarter, and with way less stress.

Whether you’re hiring your first employee or scaling up a thriving team, our HR recruiter services in Brisbane are designed to help you attract and secure the kind of talent that actually sticks — people who fit your team, your culture, and your long-term goals.

A Recruitment Partner That Gets Brisbane Business

From creative studios in West End and tech startups in Fortitude Valley to eCommerce brands in South Brisbane and beyond, we understand the local hiring landscape. While we work 100% virtually, our approach is personal and grounded in deep understanding of what Brisbane businesses need to grow, as we’re based in South East Queensland too.

We’re here to simplify your hiring process, keep you compliant, and help you stand out in a competitive market — because the best recruitment in Brisbane starts with getting the foundations right.

Outcome-Based Recruitment That Delivers

We don’t do cookie-cutter hiring. Our recruitment approach is built around outcomes — what success looks like in the role, and what kind of person is most likely to deliver it.

From there, we tailor the hiring process to your specific needs — no guesswork, just experience driven outcomes that lead to better hires and smoother onboarding.

Our Team

Who We Work With

We’ve partnered with Brisbane-based eCommerce brands, FMCG businesses, health and wellness companies, and ethical startups who are serious about building high-performing teams.

They come to us because they’re tired of traditional recruiters who just send through resumes and tag a big fee. They want a recruitment consultant in Brisbane who understands their industry, their goals, and what makes a candidate truly the right fit.

And because we’re also experienced HR specialists, we don’t just aim to hire to ‘put a bum in seat’ — we hire for culture-add and longevity. That means stronger onboarding, clearer expectations, and a positive workplace culture that keeps great people around.

Our Impact

Virtual Recruitment With Real Results

You don’t need an in-house team to find your next standout hire. Our virtual-first model means you get the flexibility, speed, and strategic support you need—without the overheads of full-time recruiters or large agency costs.  

Whether you’re based in the Brisbane CBD, Paddington, Woolloongabba, or the outer suburbs, our team is ready to support you with the best HR recruiter services Brisbane has to offer.

Let’s help you build a team that moves your business forward.

Don't just take our word for it

Our experienced recruitment team have a diverse recruiting background and are always keen to tackle new roles. However, we have bucket-loads of experience in professional, technical and sales-focused roles, as that’s what we’re most passionate about!

It’s not the size that matters…it’s who you need that counts. Any size, any Aussie location. When we go searching for your next team member, we believe in finding you the ideal blend of knowledge, experience and cultural fit.

We’ve made it simple to budget for your recruitment needs and depending on your needs we can either quote a percentage fee upon placement or a fixed fee and payment plans can be arranged upon request.

  • We sure can. This is our preferred way of working and part of our standard process, we don’t charge an additional fee for head hunting, our aim to find you the perfect candidate and we leave no stone unturned in our quest!

We don’t just find you great candidates, we actually really care about them succeeding in their new role. We keep in contact with them throughout their onboarding phase and if either party believes they’re not a perfect match, we encourage you to reach out to us for support. This is where our HR team can also give you guidance on how to help them succeed and ensure you meet your Fair Work obligations before letting them go.
