Case Study: Staffing a New Public Library Branch
A public library service needed eight temporary staff across three roles: Library Assistants, Library Officers, and Librarians, to support the launch of a new branch, with council approval for permanent positions still pending. After a competitive vendor selection process, Ignite was chosen based on its experience in library staffing, competitive rates, and ability to deliver qualified candidates quickly.
Ignite filled all roles across the three position types within the required timeframe. Staff integrated smoothly into the new branch from day one, maintaining service standards and contributing to a successful launch.

Frequently asked questions
Is it worth using a recruitment agency in Brisbane?
That depends on your goals, company size, and how much your time is worth. If you need to take time out of your day-to-day role for the hiring process, it can cost the business time, money, and potentially losing out on the right applicants.
Hiring an external recruitment agency like Ignite means getting access to an extensive pool of fantastic candidates. It also means relying on the experience of our recruiters to effectively sort through potential candidates, assess skills, conduct interviews, and essentially determine whether the candidate is going to be a good fit before meeting with managers or leaders. It may be an external cost to hire a recruitment firm, but it means saving money in the long run.
Can I apply for a job through Ignite?
Yes – we welcome job seekers to get in touch, leave their details, and express their interest in being matched with the perfect role. We also have a large number of roles available on our website for job-seekers in Brisbane and Queensland to browse and apply online: find a job.
How involved do I need to be when hiring a recruitment agency?
You can be as much or as little involved as you like – that’s the beauty of tailored recruitment services. Partnering with Ignite means working with recruiters who know the local market better than anyone – but we’re also aware of the fact that you may be after a very specific set of skills or experience for your role, which may require more input internally.
