Vanessa Cole
Training & Project Coordinator
Vanessa is known as Miss Sunshine around here! She’s warm and brings a smile to the team with her positivity, open mindset, and Aussie freckles. She was MAYDAY's first permanent hire when stepping into a recruiter role in 2017, and so she has seen the company grow from the ground up, and couldn’t be prouder of the care-focused, trend-setting company it has become.
A passion for theatre and film in the early days led Vanessa to be curious about people, about what drives them, and about how they can go about achieving their goals, which has married well with her career in recruitment. In 2020 she transitioned into a Training & Project Coordinator role, which is bringing her recruitment knowledge and passion for optimisation into a whole new focus. Her role is broad, actioned with speed and intention, and driven by purpose; to help the team and company to operate smoother, faster and more effectively, whilst being able to upkeep the high levels of care and quality.
Outside of recruitment, Vanessa is on a mission to eat her way around Sydney (and the world!), scavenging for the tastiest morsels and drops of crimson this great city has to offer.
Recruiter Insider Reviews
I met Vanessa yesterday at Mayday and she was the warmest and friendly face. She then spoke to me about two roles and we discussed which one would be most suitable for me. Bianca explained to Vanessa what I was looking for beforehand and Vanessa came in, introduced herself and spoke about the things that are important to me and why this job and company would meet my needs. I was put forward for the role on the same day which was so good for me because the job I was actually at the agency to speak to another consultant about was taken already. I was no longer walking away disappointed! So the best thing about Vanessa is that she spontaneously thought on her feet and recognised my suitability for this role in the shortest time and really impressed me and gave me some hope.CANDIDATE - RECRUITER INSIDER
