MILLS RECRUITMENT STRENGTHENS ITS BUSINESS WITH THE ACQUISITION OF OREBODY PERSONNEL
- Strong cultural fit and aligned approach to recruitment management
- Addition of attractive client base and expanded recruitment opportunities in the Mining Sector
- Strategic enhancement of specialist services to Mining clients, both office and site-based
Mills Recruitment today announced the successful acquisition of Orebody Personnel, a specialist Processing, Maintenance and Mining Services recruitment firm.
“Purchasing Orebody Personnel marks an exciting new chapter in Mills Recruitment’s growth story and is a major milestone for our business,” said Darryl Mills, Founder and Director of Mills Recruitment. “It gives us the opportunity to add a complementary business and client base in one of our strongest markets. It also consolidates Mills as leading WA-owned recruiter of choice for our mining clients.”
Mills now adds Mining Services to its existing portfolio of Engineering and Project Delivery (Mining), Accounting & Finance, Executive, Legal and Local Government recruitment.
Bryan Kennelly and Adam Duggan from Orebody have agreed to join Mills and run Mining Services. Armed with stellar reputations based on more than 45 years of mining and recruitment experience between them, Bryan and Adam will continue to look after mining clients, workers and candidates from their office at 2/403 Great Eastern Highway Redcliffe.
“While we were pleased to build a successful business, we wanted to bring our focus back to sourcing the best people for our mining clients, especially in the current climate,” said Bryan Kennelly, former Director of Orebody Personnel.
“We welcome Bryan Kennelly and Adam Duggan to the Mills team,” said Darryl. “The correlation of our values and company culture were important factors in my decision to purchase the business. It was a natural extension to have them join Mills and I’m confident our clients will reap the benefits of our combined resources and expertise going forward.”
Darryl Mills founded Mills Recruitment in 2010 with a vision and determination to offer a modern approach to recruitment, focused on trust, respect, integrity, innovation and flexibility. Committed to Bringing Great People Together, Mills Recruitment specialises in Engineering and Project Delivery (Mining), Accounting & Finance, Executive, Legal and Local Government recruitment.
Orebody Personnel was established ten years ago by Bryan Kennelly and Devon McNeil after many years of work on the mines. Adam joined sometime later in a Business Development role and now, he and Bryan bring 45 years’ industry and recruitment experience to the Mills portfolio.
