Remote Readiness
Is your organisation 'Remote Ready'?
Remote work is a working style that allows your employees to work outside of a traditional office environment. It is based on the concept that work does not need to be done in a specific place to be executed successfully. Employing remotely can open up enormous opportunities such as access to talent as well as fiscal and environmental benefits, but is not for all organisations.
Take our 'Remote Readiness' Assessment to see if your organisation is 'Remote Ready'

Testimonials
We are passionate about connecting organisations with incredible talent, but don't just take our word for it.
"Being “progressive” is hard because it makes us different. It is SUPER hard to get staff that are the perfect fit which means that training comes at a huge cost for us. It also means we have to be sure to get someone who is really on board with our whole ethos. Being a paperless office means that I can recruit staff ANYWHERE. I am not restricted to the Gold Coast pool of talent. I actually have a full time employee who works from Tasmania and she worked for us for about 8 months before we met her for the first time!"
Kyelie, IQ Accounting QLD
“Our firm engaged Pointer Remote Roles to advertise three positions within our business. We found the process of advertising with Pointer simple and we received the profiles of a range of high-quality candidates for all of the roles. Pointer is a fantastic concept and is an easy way to connect with talented professionals who are looking to work remotely. We will certainly use Pointer again when next looking to fill a role remotely.”
Tracey, HR Coordinator at Boyce Chartered Accountants
“In our industry, we are faced with the constant struggle of finding high quality, reliable freelancers to employ when we need to outsource work. My business partner and I both grew up in rural NSW and love the idea of being able to support regional areas. It’s given us an enormous pool of talent that has previously been difficult for us to access.”
