Orion Search

Orion Search is a boutique search and recruitment agency specialising in permanent recruitment throughout Australia's meat industry. The company assists primary processors including abattoirs and boning rooms, as well as further processors handling value added meat, ready to eat products and smallgoods across beef, lamb, pork and poultry sectors. Orion Search employs a comprehensive recruitment approach utilising social media, networking, talent databases, headhunting and online job boards to identify candidates that traditional online advertising alone cannot reach. By working with a focused number of clients across a wide range of positions, the agency maintains flexibility to adapt to both client needs and current market conditions, fostering true partnerships that deliver high quality, consistent and personal service.

The company's expertise spans multiple specialised areas within meat processing operations. Orion Search recruits for maintenance and engineering roles including plant engineers, maintenance managers and mechanical fitters. The agency also specialises in production and operations recruitment, placing operations managers, plant managers, boning room managers and shift supervisors. Additionally, Orion Search handles quality and technical recruitment for roles such as quality assurance managers, food technologists and meat inspectors, alongside sales, human resources and safety positions across the meat industry.

Operating across Australia, Orion Search has developed an excellent network covering the entire meat industry, providing access to candidates who are not actively seeking roles on social media but have been referred through industry connections. The agency's niche focus enables it to identify hidden talent that adds immediate value to client organisations. Based in New Farm, Queensland, Orion Search serves meat processors throughout regional Victoria, New South Wales, Western Australia and other key processing regions, helping companies achieve their goals through access to the best available talent in the sector.
