“I had the pleasure of working with Rosie Robinson, recruitment specialist at Brannigans, during the process of recruiting a new Principal for Waitaha Specialist School. Rosie demonstrated exceptional professionalism, dedication, and insight throughout the entire recruitment process. She took the time to truly understand the unique needs of our school and the qualities we were seeking in a leader. She made the process very easy, as saved a lot of time and as a busy professional on top of my duties as the Presiding Member, I was very appreciative of.
Rosie’s expertise and personalised approach made the experience seamless and efficient. Her proactive communication, thorough screening, and commitment to finding the right fit resulted in us appointing an outstanding Principal who is perfectly aligned with our vision and values. I highly recommend Rosie Robinson to anyone needing a knowledgeable and dedicated recruitment specialist.“
