Bridging the international skills recruitment gap

AS Australia’s labour market undergoes a once-in-a-generation transformation, one Parramatta based firm is stepping up to bridge the widening skills gap.
 
With diversification reshaping the way Australians work, recruitment business, Immigo Recuitment is looking to redefine how businesses access, deploy, and retain top-tier domestic and international talent.
 
A new wave of economic globalisation, driven by AI, remote work, offshoring, and skilled migration, is dismantling old employment models. From regional healthcare shortages to national digital skills gaps, Australian employers are now competing on a global playing field for qualified professionals.
 
In 2024, over 20,000 white-collar roles were offshored, according to industry data. Yet Australia is also projected to add nearly 950,000 new jobs by 2029, with the bulk in ICT, clean energy, education, and healthcare. 
 
The paradox? Talent is everywhere, but access is uneven.
 
“Most businesses aren't short on ambition, they’re short on the right talent at the right time,” said Poonam Gaur, COO at Immigo Recruitment.
 
Immigo specialises in connecting Australian companies with pre-vetted, highly skilled global professionals, while also managing the migration logistics and compliance burden that typically slows down international hiring. 
 
From software engineers in Bangalore to healthcare workers in Manila, Immigo provides a full-spectrum solution for future-focused enterprises.
 
Australia’s skilled migration program has already helped address key shortages in engineering, aged care, and construction. 
 
A 2024 OECD report found that migrant workers significantly boost innovation and productivity, particularly in regional areas. Yet some employers struggle to navigate the legal and operational complexities of global hiring.
 
What lies ahead according to Immigo Recuitment:
 
Australian companies will increasingly rely on hybrid teams that blend local leadership with globally distributed execution.
Migration agencies and recruitment firms will play a role in shaping workforce resilience.
