Basil Varouhas

With over 25 years of recruitment experience in Australia and New Zealand, Basil brings specialist expertise in professional contracting and talent acquisition across corporate services, business transformation, and infrastructure.

Clients and candidates often describe him as a trusted advisor, someone who takes the time to understand not just the capability required for a role, but also the broader team dynamics that make a placement truly successful. He takes pride in finding that missing piece of the jigsaw, the person whose skills, values, and energy bring everything together to lift team performance and strengthen organisational capability.

Basil has built long-standing relationships based on integrity, empathy, and results. In a crowded recruitment market, he has been fortunate to become the ‘go-to’ person for many leaders looking to build high-performing teams and he values those partnerships deeply and approach every engagement with the goal of achieving the best outcome for both clients and candidates.

Outside of work, Basil is happiest at the beach either body surfing, swimming or spearfishing. He has a love for cooking, and value spending time with friends and family and enjoys connecting with people over good food and conversation, whether it’s a coffee or a green tea, and believe that genuine relationships are at the heart of great recruitment.

Now based in Brisbane, Basil is proud to be part of Concentis, an organisation that shares his values of partnership, authenticity, and excellence. He is energised by our purpose of connecting outstanding talent with the projects that shape Australia’s infrastructure future and helping organisations build the workforce capability they need for tomorrow.
