Labour Hire RecruitmentThe right people for the job
Harbour Support Roles and Work Requirements
Maritime offsider briefs can involve different harbour tasks, so we confirm duties before identifying suitable workers.
Harbour Drivers With HR Licences
Where vehicle movements form part of the wider harbour workforce requirement, we can assess HR-licensed drivers separately from offsider positions.
Cargo-Side Offsiders, Confirmation Required
Dedicated cargo-side offsider supply is not established in the client documents and must be confirmed before this category is advertised.
Vessel-Side Offsiders, Confirmation Required
Dedicated vessel-side offsider supply also requires confirmation of the actual tasks, supervision arrangements and service capability.

Make the Harbour Brief Clear Before the Shift
An offsider may be familiar with harbour work but unfamiliar with your site. Access rules and assigned duties affect whether that person is suitable. We start with the work instructions rather than a generic job title.
We review relevant experience, right-to-work status and any credentials required for the assignment. We also coordinate the start date and onboarding information. Our team remains available to discuss changes after placement.
From brief to first shift
How We Assess and Place Maritime Offsiders
Our five-stage recruitment process moves from understanding the assignment through screening, onboarding and ongoing contact.
- 01
Establish the Duties and Site Conditions
Give us the work location, assigned tasks, access requirements, necessary tickets, shift times and start date.
- 02
Match Experience to Harbour Tasks
We search our candidate network and check suitable applicants against the brief, including relevant experience and right-to-work status.
- 03
Arrange Arrival and Follow Through
We coordinate placement and onboarding details, then maintain contact with the employer and worker after the assignment starts.
Accuracy note: These three H3s summarise Labour Hire Recruitment's documented five-stage process; do not imply its formal process has only three stages. The five stages are needs analysis, talent search, pre-screening and testing, placement and onboarding, and ongoing support.
