The best thing that we have done in our business over the last 10 years (and we have done some good stuff!) has been to appoint you guys to get the outcome we have with our CEO recruitment.

Stake Glass has worked with Mary since July 2023. We have found Mary to be very engaging, insightful and of huge assistance to the business. We started with some work around leadership and primarily what we wanted from our leaders. We subsequently worked on our guiding principles and took the team through a session where we agreed on a set of behaviours to hold ourselves accountable for. Further to this Mary has been instrumental in helping us structure our HR function to meet the current and future needs of Stake Glass. Mary has shown to us that she has a very unique and compelling way of engaging people in workshops and gets great participation and contribution. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Mary as we further evolve our business culture and positioning.

My objectives were definitely met, most particularly in regards to working through the next steps I should take in regards to my current position. [...] It has been a well-structured and in-depth process which has been extremely valuable. The tools and techniques used were excellent. The facilitator was intuitive, respectful and challenging.

We have engaged with Mary for 18 months now as we work through several different programs of work. Mary has provided strategic support, direction and leadership support to our SLT as well as facilitating several workshops to get our teams thinking outside the square. She has also helped us to flesh out our strategy. Mary’s approach and ability to quickly gain the confidence of the team in the room has set her apart from others out there. She is quick to get the ideas on the table and then deal to them in a structured and effective way that gets real results, quickly. I would recommend Mary to anyone looking to get to the heart of their business, what’s driving them and what needs to be done to create change and results.

I would highly recommend Carole Peterson as a mentor/coach for the Brannigans leadership development programme. [...] Her support and mentoring have been invaluable, particularly as I try to build my confidence and people skills as I work towards a transition in my current role.

I highly recommend the team at Brannigans as they have been very helpful with various strategic and tactical HR initiatives and have also found us great people for our business. They’re approachable, give sound advice and have been a great consultancy to support our business as it’s grown.
Steve BrownOceania Meat Processors
I’ve personally worked with the team at Brannigans for more than 10 years across multiple organisations. They deliver real value because they strive to understand business needs, the type of person that will complement a team, and are experts at finding people who may not be looking in the market. Over the years we have built a great relationship based on trust and have had lots of fun while we do business.
