Living and working on the Northern Beaches is what we're all about at Peninsula Personnel. We pride ourselves on being able to find fabulous permanent and part-time permanent positions for local people with local businesses and organisations. Just one of the many benefits of working close to home is less time spent commuting, which means you have more time to spend with family and friends, catch some waves at the beach and soak up the last of the day's sunshine, workout at the gym or go shopping.
Permanent Positions
Permanent positions suit people who are available to work full-time hours, for example Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 5.30pm. We provide Permanent positions for many different roles and industries, ranging from junior office roles through to senior appointments such as Chief Financial Officer.
Permanent Part-time Positions
Permanent Part-time positions suit people who prefer to work three full days per week or five days a week during school hours. Permanent part-time positions, however, are not the easiest roles to find on the Northern Beaches because many people are looking for the wonderful work-life balance these roles offer. The good news is that when you are registered with us, we can immediately contact you when a suitable position becomes available, as we rarely need to advertise. And when seeking a Permanent position, it's important to have up-to-date WP skills and a resume and cover letter ready to go.
Generally speaking, the Northern Beaches has below-average salaries compared with the Sydney metropolitan area, although it's important to consider the many other financial and lifestyle benefits of working locally which can include a shorter daily commute and lower transport costs, free onsite parking, flexibility (such as extended lunch breaks or a late start to watch your child receive an award or run in a race), complimentary lunches and regular social events that many Northern Beaches-based companies offer. You will more than likely find that it all evens out, or that the difference is marginal.
What to expect at your Permanent position interview with Peninsula Personnel
- Allow at least an hour for your Permanent position interview (allow a little extra time if you are also planning to register for On-Hire Casual)
- Dress as you would for a job interview (a clean and ironed corporate-style outfit)
- We will go through your resume, discuss your current and previous career experiences and your preferred roles, industries and work environments and explain any skills tests we would like you to take
- You will have the opportunity to ask us questions, perhaps about salaries and inteview techniques
- In addition to your resume, please bring your bank and superannuation details, your Tax File Number, qualifications and certificates, work visa, and licences such as Driver's and Forklift licences

I have been using Peninsula Personnel for different projects over a number of years now and can highly recommend them.... Lisa is always very responsive and highly professional. They're great at matching the skills of their temp staff for the job at hand and always recommend great candidates for us. Some of which have even stayed on and become permanent staff.read more

Peninsula Personnel found me my dream job. I’ve chalked up 12 months at HART now and couldn’t be happier. They... understood me and my skills immediately and it didn’t take long to have me settled in my job. The PP team is there to support and encourage me when ever I need and I often receive kind, thoughtful messages and seasonal gifts. I am so grateful for the PP team and all they do... so professional and great at what they do - find you a dream job with that perfect fit.read more

Six months ago, the Team at Peninsula Personnel found me a great position with a dynamic and passionate business... located on the Northern Beaches. They took the time to understand my strengths and aspirations and were able to find a full time role that is a great fit for me. Furthermore, they were willing to go the extra mile for me to find this position when a previous placement did not work out, which I am very grateful for. Their positive, down-to-earth and friendly attitude, professional focus and commitment to keeping it local are second to none. Thanks for my wonderful new job. Keep up the good work.Brigitteread more

Lisa, Margaret and the team at Peninsula Personnel have been such a delight to work with and are so quick to move on... the roles they have available. Within the week of walking into peninsula personnel I had been set up with my first assignment to start the following Monday. Can’t fault them in their approach, especially over the Christmas period. It’s unlucky that we were not able to secure a role in my current field but that wasn’t without them trying. Thank you again to the team, I would highly recommend them (and already have done) to anyone on the job search whether temp or permanent and I would be back with them if needed in an instant.read more

Very mixed feelings about our experience with this agency, I cannot recommend Peninsula Personnel to employers, they... are clearly an employment agency for employees and their own benefits only. Employees looking for work, this is a great agency for you, including the lovely packaged gift you get once you are placed in your new role ;) We certainly will not use them again and are probably the first client to even bother leaving a such a review for others to know what to expect.read more

Peninsula made me getting a job easy and an all around great experience. I told them I was really keen on a specific... position. Unfortunately, a didn’t meet a language requirement and they were quickly looking for the next. The job requirements came back amended from the first and Amanda quickly called me to get an interview! I was so excited and I think they may have been more excited for me. They were endearing and genuinely cared about finding me a job I was excited about and not just placing me somewhere for their benefit. They also sent me a very sweet Christmas gift to celebrate. Would absolutely recommend the whole team!read more
