I started working with FLH a year ago and straight away I was offered consistent work on a site in Melbourne CBD 5-6 days a week which I continued to work up until I left Melbourne recently. The hours were absolutely great and it was very convenient for me working in the city as I had no car and relied on public transport. Joe was my main point of contact and he was amazing to deal with, I can’t thank him enough for everything!

Fast Labour Hire has truly been a game-changer for my business! As a construction company that does my own developments, finding reliable skilled workers quickly has always been a challenge - until we found Fast Labour Hire. Their efficiency in sourcing the best candidates within 1 business day matched with their dedication to understanding my needs has been exceptional (thanks Kris & Ben!)From skilled tradesmen to general labourers and, on occasion site managers, they've consistently provided me with hardworking individuals who not only meet but exceed my expectations. Their commitment to quality and their ability to respond swiftly to our staffing needs have saved us both time and money.I have been working with FLH for over 4 years now. We've built a strong partnership with Fast Labour Hire, and we couldn't be happier with the level of service they provide. If you're looking for a reliable recruitment company that delivers results fast, you are in the right place. They've definitely earned our trust and loyalty. Besides, definitely contributed to my bottom line - more profit, less leakage, mitigating risk on site and saving me thousands in recruitment and management costs.

To be completely honest, it’s a great company, I didn’t know about it and was only walking, saw the sign, rang the bell and Dion Hartley attended to me, he asked for my experience and tickets, booked me for induction the next day and called me for a job the day after, it was a matter of just 2 days and I started working, I find this company absolutely helpful and useful.

After experiencing some abysmal recruitment from Dash, who truly treat you like a number with 0 humanity, I was so presently surprised when Joe at Fast Labour did an incredible job of turning my construction experience around. He was helpful at every stage even over errors that werent his, went out of his way to text me at weekends, and has been completely honest and understanding at every juncture. Couldn't be happier with my experience at Fast so far.

These people are real professionals. They live and breathe the construction industry and they organised a great variety of work for me that was conveniently located and with people who are safety-minded and polite individuals. I deal with Josh Dix and I couldn’t speak more highly of the guy. The app is seamless and easy to use. Be sure to be responsive and keen to work and they will look hard for opportunities for you.
