Giide

What Giide does

Giide is a privately held B2B recruitment services firm headquartered in Brisbane, Queensland, serving engineering, manufacturing, construction, and logistics employers across Queensland and Northern NSW. The company operates three core service lines: Permanent Recruitment (contingency or retained placements), Specialist Search (executive and senior technical search), and Giide.u (an outsourced embedded recruitment product in which Giide consultants operate inside client organizations). Revenue is generated through placement fees (percentage of annual salary) and managed-service retainers, with no publicly disclosed pricing. The business is deliberately non-technological in its core proposition: Giide describes its proprietary capabilities as recruitment methodology, candidate assessment, and regional workforce expertise rather than a software platform.

Giide maintains physical offices across nine Queensland cities — Brisbane (headquarters, Level 19, 10 Eagle Street), Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba, Ipswich, Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville, and Cairns — with stated coverage extending into Northern NSW. The go-to-market is sales-led enterprise field sales with consultative account management, supplemented by content marketing (LinkedIn, regional SEO landing pages, blog, salary surveys, case studies, downloadable guides) and a candidate self-registration portal. In 2024, the company partnered with Reach LX to add Workforce Strategy & Advisory and Leadership & Team Development service modules, expanding from pure recruitment into bundled human-capital advisory.

The company originated as Infinite Human Capital, operated as Infinite Pro, and rebranded to Giide in 2023 with a new mission to "connect professionals with greater opportunities." Additional partnerships with Peleton Work Ready and Absolute Immigration support international recruitment capability, demonstrated by a case study in which 40 Philippine heavy vehicle technicians were placed with an Australian waste management client. The firm is independent — no parent company, no disclosed institutional investors, no funding rounds — with founder Dallas Wallace referenced in privacy-policy documentation. No certifications, patents, regulatory actions, or M&A activity are recorded in the available data.
