About Us

Australia’s leading IT, Engineering and Telecommunications recruitment source, operating on a local, national and international scale. Our well-established reputation in the industry hasn’t been built by chance, but because of the relationships we’ve nurtured, the success we have delivered and the trust we’ve earnt.

MEET THE
TEAM

We don’t hire recruitment experts unless they have built an established career in either IT or Telecommunications and have spent their professional lives perfecting the trade. Our success lies completely in the quality of our consultants.

A professional organisation and pleasure to work with. I’ve engaged with them on several jobs which unfortunately weren’t filled by Rubix due to positions being filled internally, however I was most impressed by the quick turnaround of quality candidates and “can do” attitude. Would recommend.
