About Georgie

My name is Georgie, and I am the Head of Search for Shirley Parsons Australia, focussing on recruiting professionals across Health, Safety, Environmental and Quality. This is a diverse role, seeing me support companies in both permanent and contract recruitment across Australia, New Zealand and APAC.

I have had a varied background here at Shirley Parsons, starting my career in the UK in 2016. I initially worked within the Environmental sector before moving my focus to Health and Safety Consultancy and Services and heading up my team and the wider Careers business. I have enjoyed building great relationships with my clients and building my Health and Safety knowledge. I used my time during multiple lockdowns to complete my NCRQ Level 6 Certificate in Applied Health and Safety. In 2023, I was given the exciting opportunity to join Shirley Parsons ANZ, heading up the Australian office.

Before joining Shirley Parsons, I spent my time travelling the world, completing a BSc in Television Technology and Production and living in Australia for two years. While the bright lights of Aylesbury kept me back in the UK for 7 years, the Sun, Sea and opportunity brought me back to wonderful Sydney.

I am a keen DIYer and bought a house two weeks before the first lockdown, so I had lots of time to practice my DIY skills, turning an 80s décor granny flat into my dream home. I enjoy singing and can be found belting out a musical theatre tune on a Monday night at choir, or whilst completing some DIY, or any other time of the day or night, especially in the Shirley Parsons offices!
