Mother and Son duo, Justine Proctor and Luke Harford, are the owners of Done & Dusted Holistic Cleaning Services. They call themselves the home environment fixers, believing a clean environment equals a clean mind.
What matters most to them when it comes to hiring, is that their employees are the right fit for the business.
atWork Australia’s Employer Engagement Consultant, Desiree, understands their culture and what kinds of people they are looking for.
Done & Dusted Holistic Cleaning Services have a kind, family style work environment. They want staff to be happy, supported and enjoying work and will often job carve or be flexible with hours to find the right people.
“As a small business it takes a lot of time going through applications and organising interviews, just for many people to cancel or not show up on the day,” said Justine.
“Desiree screens the applicants prior to referring them which makes it so much easier.”
“atWork Australia also briefs the clients prior to their interviews meaning they already have an understanding of the role and requirements, making the interview processes smoother for both of us.”
Currently, two clients are working for Done & Dusted Holistic Cleaning Services. Working with private clients in their home, they need a specific kind of person to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
Disability Employment Services client, Sam*, has the right personality to work with Done & Dusted Holistic Cleaning Services aged care clients.
“Her personality shines through and has been a big thing for our older clients,” said Justine.
Where Workforce Australia client, Carly*, came from a hotel cleaning background and works well with clients who have a particular way they like things done.
“Having support from atWork Australia means they know what I need, know what I want, and they find suitable candidates to put forward, saving us a lot of time,” said Luke.
