Canterbury Tech Summit - Absolute IT

Canterbury Tech Summit

Meet our Christchurch team, who attended the Canterbury Tech Summit!

Nice to meet you!

I’m James Mann, Senior Consultant based in our Christchurch branch, covering Canterbury and the entire South Island. With over 6 years’ experience, across all aspects of recruitment, I’ve worked with organisations of all sizes and recruiting roles of all types and levels. I’m a ‘people first’ recruiter, treating every candidate I meet as someone I’ve known for years, and every company I recruit for as if they were my own.

Hi there!

I’m Sarah Harland, the Regional Manager for Christchurch. With eight years’ experience helping to shape people’s careers, three in Melbourne and five with our sibling company, Madison Recruitment (both part of Accordant), I’m now leading both the Absolute IT and Madison teams in the Christchurch branch. I’m experienced in specialised, hard-to-fill, high volume, temporary, contract, and permanent recruitment. But most importantly, I’m passionate about impactful placements and fostering lasting connections.

I have worked with Absolute IT (Christchurch) to hire people into several roles. They have shown a genuine interest in the business, team, and role that we are offering. The shortlisted candidates have been impressive and we have filled the roles with candidates that succeeded and flourished in the roles.

I would like to share my most genuine and positive experience with Absolute IT (Christchurch). They are an incredibly dedicated team, focused on finding the best talent and the right fit for both the candidate and the company…James even followed up weeks after I started to see how things were going, and sent a nice gift. This little detail really shows how much Absolute IT cares about people.
