alignr

Alignr is a recruitment company built to systematise hiring for Australian small and medium-sized businesses. Founded by Alex King with over 10 years of experience and 500+ placements, Alignr inverts the traditional agency model by fixing structural hiring problems rather than simply filling vacancies. The company operates on a pay-on-first-day model with no retainer fees, a 6-month replacement guarantee, and a 30-day savings guarantee, delivering 98% fill rates and 96% retention at 12 months. Alignr specialises in placing white-collar corporate roles including HR, sales, operations, finance, administration, and leadership positions across manufacturing, construction, FMCG, logistics, wholesale, and B2B services sectors. The company's three-pillar framework combines role avatar development, targeted candidate attraction, and structured decision-making through scorecards and video pre-screens to ensure high-fit placements. Alignr maintains a strong Melbourne presence whilst regularly working across Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, Geelong, and regional Australian sites. Clients choose Alignr over traditional agencies because of its systematic approach, transparent metrics, skin-in-the-game guarantees, and founder-led service model that prioritises long-term outcomes over transactional placements.
