Wouldn't it be nice to find out a little more about the team who get you work-ready for your shifts with Nursing Australia?
Say hi and get to know Hugh, our Client and Candidate Relationship Manager in Victoria.
What’s your role and what do you love about it?
- I am the Client and Candidate Relationship Manager for Victoria, and I love it. I really enjoy the people side to my business. I enjoy meeting with Registered Nurses and all clinical staff, learning about their roles while having them work-ready for the agency. It really is very rewarding work. The fact that my colleagues are all hard working, but also ultra-friendly and make each day fun is an added bonus.
What inspired you to work in healthcare/staffing?
- In 2012 I found myself at a crossroads in my career, moving from banking into the HR/Recruitment space. I decided I wanted to engage in something I regarded as noble and specialised. I found nursing recruitment and I never looked back.
A fun fact about you.,
- My great grandfather was the Captain of the Australian Cricket Team. There is a bar at the MCC named The Hugh Trumble Cafe.
What’s your favourite way to unwind after work?
I watch, read about and live sport. AFL, cricket, soccer and basketball. Some say I am obsessed. That and spending time with my twin girls.
Coffee or tea?
- Tea. All the way. No exceptions.
If you could work from anywhere for a day, where would it be?
- The Melbourne Football Club.
What’s something people wouldn’t expect about your role?
- The amazing satisfaction you feel when you find someone the exact perfect job. When you can actually see and hear it has changed their life.
- What’s your go-to weekend activity?
No unsurprisingly – attending the MCG to watch my favourite team win.
