Brisbane Under the Stars: Vivid Recruitment Hits the Rooftop
Last Thursday night, Brisbane reminded us why it’s fast becoming the heart of Australia’s built environment boom.
Team Vivid headed north for three jam-packed days of catch-ups, candidate conversations, and market insights — all capped off with a rooftop event that truly delivered the goods. Held under the stars at the Stock Exchange Hotel, our exclusive networking night brought together some of the best and brightest from Architecture, Engineering, Planning and Government.
Big thanks to our brilliant guests from Cox Architecture, Architectus, Aurecon, Human Habitats, Compass-Intelle — and many more — who made the night one to remember. Whether we were swapping project insights or sipping on something cold, the buzz was real and the outlook for Queensland’s future was even better.
The Word on the Street (and Rooftop)
One thing was crystal clear across every meeting, drink, and rooftop conversation: Brisbane is booming. And we’re not just talking about cranes on the skyline — although there are plenty of those too.
The multi-residential sector is already heating up, and there’s growing confidence that the Queensland Budget at the end of the month could be a real ‘green light’ moment for even more large-scale development and infrastructure projects.
From state-led initiatives to private sector momentum, the consensus is that enormous amounts of work are coming — and Brisbane is bracing (and building) for it.
Our Brisbane Base is Officially Live
With our Brisbane office now up and running, we’re not just dropping in — we’re dialled in. We’ve firmly planted ourselves in the Sunshine State and are perfectly placed to support both clients and candidates as the market shifts into gear.
A huge shoutout to Annie Salter for pulling everything together behind the scenes and making the week such a success.
Let’s Do It Again Soon
To everyone who came along to the rooftop, met us for a coffee, or shared a perspective on the future of Queensland — thank you. Your insights are invaluable, and your energy makes it all worthwhile.
We’ll be back in Brisbane again before you know it. Until then, if you’re hiring, job hunting, or just want to chat market movements, get in touch with the team at Vivid.
