SEEK SARA Award Win!

In exciting news, we are thrilled to share that our very own Director and Co-Founder Sinead Connolly’s took home the time prize for SEEK’s Recruiter Leader of the Year at the SARA awards earlier this month in Melbourne!


To be nominated for this is a huge accolade in a highly competitive industry and for Sinead to take home the award when nominated alongside other notable leaders is a fantastic achievement! Steering Lotus People through a pandemic while growing the business to record-breaking highs, all with team engagement, culture, and client/ candidate service at the forefront of everything she does, we couldn’t be prouder!


The passion and commitment that Sinead shows to the business and the industry are on another level and Sinead’s approach to leadership is to focus on innovation, the future, and being progressive in all that Lotus People does, while always learning, growing, and improving – without losing the human element. It is this approach that truly sets Lotus People apart from the rest.


“It’s been a challenging few years navigating a pandemic as a leader in an industry which took a massive hit, but I am so proud of how our team have showed up, leant on our values, and went above and beyond in all we did as a response to the situation we found ourselves in.” – Sinead Connolly 


A huge well done to all of the finalists and winners and a massive thank you to SEEK for putting on an amazing event – we had a fantastic night!
