SustainRecruit

What SustainRecruit does

SustainRecruit is a specialist recruitment and talent solutions firm focused on technology, digital, and financial services roles, operating across Australia and Europe under the TXM Group umbrella. The company delivers permanent placement, contract/interim staffing, and outcome-based Statements of Work, the latter in partnership with TXM Consult Digital. Its service portfolio spans software engineering, data and AI, cybersecurity, cloud and infrastructure, product and design, digital marketing, and financial services verticals including superannuation, insurance, and wealth management. Core customer segments are enterprise clients (e.g., Canva, Atlassian, Amazon, Qantas, Macquarie, Deutsche Post, Schroders, IAG) alongside scaling tech businesses and startups in Sydney, Melbourne, and European hubs including London, Milton Keynes, Barcelona, and Munich.

The business model is fee-based recruitment: contingency or retained search fees on permanent placements, daily rate markups on contract roles (€250-€850/day disclosed for European contracts), and managed-services revenue on SoW engagements. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with sector-specialist consultants engaging hiring managers directly, supplemented by self-serve job listings on the website and the Colab community events brand for top-of-funnel brand building. Pricing is not publicly disclosed beyond contract rate ranges, and the firm operates no standalone SaaS platform, public APIs, or proprietary software product.

The underlying technology layer is minimal: SustainRecruit is a human-delivered recruitment service augmented by the TXM Group infrastructure and an 800k+ candidate database. In March 2026, the European entity (formerly Provide Consulting Ltd) rebranded to Sustain Talent Consulting Ltd (trading as SustainRecruit), unifying with the Australian brand (Sustainability Consulting Partners Pty Ltd) under a single global identity within the TXM Group portfolio of 17 companies, 400+ staff, and £300m+ combined turnover.
