Wishing you a Merry Christmas
December 2023
Dear Valued Clients,
The holiday season is upon us, and we wanted to take a moment to extend our warmest wishes to you and your loved ones. It has been an eventful year for many of us, and we are grateful for your continued support and the opportunity to work with you to provide for all your recruitment and HR needs.
As we approach the end of 2023, we would like to update you on our office hours during the holiday period. Rural Directions Recruitment and HR’s office will be closed from 4pm Thursday 21st of December 2023 and will reopen on Monday 8th of January 2024. Our team will be taking this time to rest, recharge, and spend quality time with our families and friends.
During this period, please note that our recruitment and HR services will not be available. However, rest assured that any urgent matters will be addressed promptly upon our return. If you have any urgent enquiries during our close down period you can contact Gretchen Parkes, our Manager, on 027-229-2007.
By way of a quick business update, Rural Directions have continued to grow from strength to strength this past year. The introduction of our hourly recruitment service option is a great complement to our full recruitment solutions. There has also been an increase in demand for salary banding work, customisation of position descriptions and a range of other HR project work.
We’d also like to take the opportunity to let you know that our highly valued Recruiter / Project Lead, Nikki Henderson, will depart at the end of the year to continue the great work she has been doing as the Administrator with East Coast Rural Support Trust. Nikki is also a Facilitator for the Trust alongside Brent and Gretchen, so our close relationship will continue. Thank you for all you have contributed to the team and business Nikki, we will miss you!
In the New Year we will have a new Recruitment and HR Advisor starting who comes with a wealth of experience and will be a great addition to the Rural Directions Team.
Thank you again to all the amazing clients and businesses we get to work with. We wish you a very happy holiday season filled with fun and look forward to connecting with you again in 2024.
Best wishes,
Brent, Gretchen, Robyne, Nikki & Kelly
The Rural Directions Recruitment and HR Team.
