I found my dealings with Inspired People Solutions to be a breath of fresh air. As a candidate looking for a new opportunity, and having dealt with office based recruitment agencies in the past, my experience was easy, transparent and hassle free.
Helen’s interviewing skills are second to none. With her ability to build immediate rapport and a great understanding of my work background, skills and abilities (established prior to meeting with me via my submitted C.V), I found it very easy to communicate and express my personality, likes and dislikes in what I sought for my next employment opportunity. It was explained to me the opportunities available and each one was thoroughly discussed in the context of my experience and career goals.
Always keeping in touch with me, I was never left wondering where my application status was and once I was placed, the follow up I received post-placement was very proactive and supportive!
A great experience!

I have had an ongoing working relationship with Helen and Inspired for a number of years now. Our business and I has found this relationship to be most rewarding and highly valuable. The services provided by Inspired range much wider than referrals for positions of employment. There is a whole other connection such as the networking evenings that Helen hosts and reference material which is regularly forwarded. Helen is extremely conscientious about ensuring client needs are met and she regularly invites feedback and monitors assignment progress closely which I think is important. Helen and her team are hard working, open and candid to work with.

I have been dealing with IPS since its conception. IPS stand firm on both policy and process. IPS are driven by their values and this is demonstrated thru both client and candidate care. IPS staff are friendly, efficient and always ask plenty of questions which gives me comfort as an employer looking for quality candidates. IPS understand our business and culture and that’s very important to both us and the candidates. With IPS they really know how to delight a client. A job well done to Helen and her team.

Helen provided placement services when I was recruiting operational safety staff. Helen was thorough, punctual, consistent and creative – particularly given the labour shortage in the OHS field. We ended up getting an excellent raft of candidates that fit the bill well.

In today’s busy world we all strive to provide for the needs of our clients. Recognising and satisfying these needs often determine our actual success. Whilst we would love to be regarded as the firm that can answer all calls it is often necessary to form strategic alliances with others.
Scales Consulting Group has been fortunate to form such an alliance with Inspired People Solutions and Helen Butler in particular. Helen has proven herself to be hard working, informed and reliable and most of all a trusted friend. Her particular strengths in the HR, OH&S and L&D fields set her apart.
We have completed quite a number of special projects together with full client satisfaction.

I recently returned from the UK and was looking to continue my career in Australia and IPS were there to help. Not only is their local knowledge excellent, their candidate care and management is exceptional. They were able to provide excellent information to help me make informed choices about my next move and I would not hesitate to use them again in the future as a candidate and would certainly consider addding them to the PSL at the company where I now work.

IPS is by far the best experience I’ve ever had with a recruitment agency. IPS is extremely professional, insightful and provides an exceptional service and commitment to its clients. They also adopt an open and friendly approach to their business and demonstrate genuine care in after placement follow up. All of these qualities place IPS as a leading recruiter with the ability to successfully attract and retain quality staff. It goes without saying that I have no hesitation in referring family and friends to IPS.
Alexandra Christopolous , Senior Claims Manager, Construction Industry


Having worked for several years in Human Resources in Australia and the UK, IPS is well placed to understand the recruitment needs of clients and candidates. IPS clearly understands the industry intimately, and in my experience maintains professional relations throughout the recruitment process. More importantly, Helen Butler (the Director) delivered on what she said she would do and kept me informed of progress throughout. The integrity, honesty, responsiveness and personalised approach of IPS are of the highest standard to meet both client and candidate needs. From my first meeting it was clear that Helen Butler and Lisa Grantham of IPS listen to your needs and take the time to get to know you and understand your experience, so as to ensure their focus on sourcing the right people with the right experience to satisfy the needs of their clients. If you are looking for a true business partner that will add value to your business, then I would not hesitate to recommend Helen Butler and the team at IPS.
