The agency for roles job boards can't fill

Led by a head-hunter with twenty years' experience, headhunting specialist talent the market isn't advertising, in places most agencies won't go. One founder, direct involvement, every placement.

Book a call

Two industries. One standard of service.

ENVIRONMENTAL, MINING & ENGINEERING

ENVIRONMENTAL, MINING & ENGINEERING

ENVIRONMENTAL, MINING & ENGINEERING

Specialist technical talent for consultancies delivering complex projects in hard-to-staff locations. We find the people who can actually do the job, not just the ones applying for it.

AGRICULTURE & FARMING

ENVIRONMENTAL, MINING & ENGINEERING

ENVIRONMENTAL, MINING & ENGINEERING

Production and farm management roles filled by people who understand the industry, not just the job description. 

Built for teams that can't afford a bad hire.

how we work

Strategic Alignment & Market Calibration

We start inside your business, not a job ad. We map your team dynamics, technical requirements and long-term goals, then benchmark the role against real market conditions before we search for anyone.

Targeted Headhunting & Market Mapping

No job boards, no inbound applications. We map the industry, find the professionals already doing the job well, and approach them directly.

Comprehensive Qualification & Operational Fit

A resume is a fraction of the picture. We assess capability, leadership style and cultural fit, so every candidate we put in front of you can actually do the job and stay in it.

Post-Interview Vetting & Credential Verification

Once an offer goes out, we run exhaustive reference checks and verify every credential against your compliance requirements. No surprises after the start date.

RETAINED SEARCH

When getting it right matters most

Some roles are too critical to leave to a standard search. Retained search means dedicated focus on one mandate at a time, direct engagement with passive talent who aren't applying anywhere, and full confidentiality throughout.


Why clients choose it:


Priority focus, not one of ten open roles competing for attention
Direct outreach to passive, high-quality candidates
Fewer candidates put forward, each one a genuine fit
Lower hiring risk and stronger retention after placement

This is how we work when the cost of getting it wrong is higher than the cost of doing it properly.

About Us

Led by someone who's done the work

Marinda Gatherer has run recruitment desks for more than 20 years, placing specialist talent in some of the hardest roles and locations to staff in the country.


HunterGatherer is built on one idea: recruitment works better when one person owns the relationship end to end. No account handovers. No junior consultant learning on your dime. You work directly with the founder, every time.

Why work with a founder, not a firm

When you call HunterGatherer, you get me. Not a call centre, not a rotating account manager, not a junior consultant learning the industry on your project. Every search, every candidate conversation, every reference check runs through one person who has actually done this for 20 years.

Built for the roles nobody else wants to touch

I don't pass on a role because the location is inconvenient. I've built a career finding people who will actually go where the work is.
