Testimonial
“I’ve known Richard Triggs for a number of years, and had the opportunity to engage Arete Executive. The role was General Manager – Franchise Operations, a critical member of my executive leadership team.
Arete were able to deliver six strong candidates within 20 working days, that I subsequently interviewed. This resulted in us securing not only a new General Manager, but also having a “bank” of talent for another senior vacancy coming up in our team, at no additional cost.
Arete delivered a great result and I would certainly recommend them to other organisations.“
“Arete has recruited three roles for ReNu Energy over the past 12 months using the Headhunted Shortlist solution. Arete was great in taking the time to work through and understand our organisational needs and the ideal candidate requirements.
The list of candidates presented was right on brief, making the interviewing and selection process efficient and easy and providing us with further candidates to come back to as the business grows. This service presents great value and we will continue to use it.“
“On behalf of the Board of Management of Autism Queensland, I would like to thank you for your contribution to the selection process for a new Chair.
We are extremely pleased with the candidate who has accepted the position and the overall high quality of applicants you directed towards us.
We believe the organisation has a firm base on which to build a strong future and the highly dynamic individual who has accepted the position of Chair will ensure the organisation prospers going forward.“
“Richard Triggs has an excellent reputation in the business community and was committed to understanding our company.

“I have used Richard Triggs' services on a number of occasions (to recruit board members and a CEO) and found him to be exceptionally proactive and effective.“
“Richard (and his team) are VERY proactive. They have a great deal of success in a competitive market, and that is testimony to the quality of their service.
He isn't just a bag of promises. He DOES deliver.
It seems to me that the key difference is that he takes a GENUINE interest in a good outcome for his clients — vastly different to experiences I have had with other recruiters who just seem to send enough resumes to sink a ship, and then leave you to it.
He is good with people. He is good at getting things done. He is good value.
If you are wanting executive staff, then you must call him and have a chat. I'm sure he will be able to help — and he will do so in a way that reduces recruitment costs significantly.“
“Arete Executive offers a professional recruitment service - and, most importantly, they deliver. Unlike other recruitment consultants I've worked with, Richard Triggs takes the time to understand the needs of both his clients and potential candidates - ensuring a rich and enduring match. With Richard, you can expect professionalism, integrity and candid advice.“
“I first came into contact with Richard Triggs when I left my role as a CEO with my last employer. Using techniques that Richard showed me in LinkedIn and more generally in my job search, I was able to make myself stand out for the quality candidate that I believed I was.
I fairly rapidly secured the senior role I was seeking with a great company and people who I love working with and for. Thanks Richard for your clarity and excellent presentation of these key skills!“
“Richard Triggs is an outstanding executive recruitment consultant who genuinely respects the interests of both client and candidate at all times.

He has a proactive approach, and I have found my meetings with him to be both professional and personable.“
