Welcome to Karan & Co

Hiring the right people to

scale grow develop your business.

WHAT WE DO

We’re not an ordinary recruitment agency.

Specialising in executive and retained search, our expertise lies in heavy industry sectors such as engineering, construction, manufacturing, transport logistics, and technology.

What sets us apart?

We work with the company and the candidate to make sure it’s a perfect fit. We consult, coach, advise, and provide a solution that goes beyond just hiring a position, because we believe that it’s the people that make a company great.

We’ll work with you to create the perfect team!

We help growing businesses in heavy industry sectors by saving them time, money and relieving their stress around resourcing requirements.

We do this through bringing an experienced team of specialist recruiters together to partner with clients that share the same values we do. Between our team we have over 30 years – recruiting experience and are highly skilled at what we do.

We provide value, partnership and unbeatable service through our retained and executive search, along with onboarding coaching and regular assessments.

We believe in going the extra mile for your business.

In return, we find you people who will go the extra mile for you, too.

With offices in Queensland and New South Wales, we are not your ordinary recruitment agency. We don’t just find you the perfect candidates, but we also help candidates throughout the process through empowerment, education and information. 

On top of this, we use our podcast, Building Doors, to promote leadership, culture, and personal growth. 

We are a talent partner for your resourcing, because the key to a successful company is through its people.

We are Karan & Co.

CLIENTS WE'VE WORKED WITH

An agency that really stands out from the crowd, absolute leaps and bounds above everyone else. Working with Lauren throughout the initial interviewing process was authentic, honest and not a sales pitch. Their team are amazing, have great communication and I really enjoy working with them. I had two job offers; Lauren had a very real conversation with me about what role would be a better fit for me. She did not approach it in a way to convince me to take her position, so she got a placement. She cared about what would be best for me.

Karan & Co really allocate people to our business that are best aligned to our business. Unlike the others, Karan & Co invest the time to really understand the culture of my business, and that has brought people on board that are reflecting what we want to do. Lauren's personal attributes have been spread across the business as its grown, so it's really great to see that it's not just that one person - it's the entire team that work that way.

- Sean DonaldQueensland General Manager, Georgiou Group

Karan & Co were fantastic and understood what I was looking for. They were patient in finding me the right role and understood some of the challenges I’ve faced in the past as being a female in the male dominated industry. Karan & Co value the importance of family and didn’t push to me make a quick placement. They understood it was about finding the right placement that would suit me.
