Meet Stephanie Ravida

Specialist Recruiter | Insurance, Restoration & Construction

LifeTalent Personnel was built on a simple belief: recruitment should be personal, transparent and focused on creating long-term partnerships. Not simply filling vacancies.

I’m Stephanie Ravida, Managing Director of LifeTalent Personnel, specialising in recruitment across the Insurance Building, Restoration and Construction sectors throughout Australia and New Zealand.

I work closely with businesses to understand not only the experience and technical capability they require, but also the leadership style, culture and personality needed for someone to genuinely succeed within their organisation.

As a boutique recruitment business, every client and candidate works directly with me. I personally manage each search from the initial brief and targeted headhunting through to screening, interviews, offers and placement, providing a consistent and highly personalised service throughout the process.

For candidates, I offer honest, confidential career conversations and opportunities that genuinely align with their experience, ambitions and long-term goals.

For clients, my focus is simple: understand the business, know the market and introduce quality people who can make a genuine long-term impact.

Exceptional recruitment is more than finding the right CV.

It’s connecting exceptional talent with exceptional businesses.

Specialist Recruitment Services

Targeted recruitment across Construction, Insurance Building & Restoration throughout Australia and New Zealand.

Targeted Recruitment & Headhunting

I go beyond traditional advertising. Through targeted headhunting, market mapping and industry networks, I identify experienced professionals, including those who may not be actively looking for their next opportunity.

Genuine Client Partnerships

I take the time to understand your business, culture, team and long-term objectives. This allows me to look beyond a position description and identify people who genuinely align with your organisation.

Thorough Candidate Screening

Every candidate is personally screened before being introduced. I assess their experience, motivations, career goals, remuneration expectations and overall suitability to ensure every introduction is considered and relevant.
