Blake Oliver

Blake Oliver, also referred to as Blake Oliver Consulting, is a recruitment firm founded in 2017 that works across Australia. It recruits mainly in insurance and superannuation, with further specialisations in wealth, technology, and property and construction, and it also offers executive search. Its insurance work covers areas such as general insurance underwriting and broking, claims, risk and compliance, life insurance and reinsurance.

Managing Director Daniel Marsh began his career in the London insurance industry before moving to Australia. The firm says most of its consultants come from an industry background, and that it gives clients market news, competitor analysis and information on hiring trends alongside recruitment. For searches it uses a multi-channel approach that combines targeted search, market wide advertising and approaches to known people in its network.

Its team works Australia-wide, with contacts listed for Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. It says its networks cover top tier, mid tier and boutique companies across Australia, Asia and the Middle East.
