Why Choose Special Streams?

Saltworth’s “traditional consultancy” alternatives ensure clients pay only for real value. From complex technical projects to project management outsourcing, consulting and indivudual “Special Hires”.

Special Search & Selection – fee for service

That certain person…

Special Hires in technology, business, or executive domains
Targetted, discreet, selective sourcing
Permanent, Salaried-FTC or other…

Under the “Special Search & Selection” service stream, this offering supports clients by identifying and engaging individual “Special Hires” on a salaried basis for specific business needs or opportunities.

Many turn to consultancies, but high overhead costs will always overshadow results, no matter how good they are!

Rethink Outsourcing

Special Teams – projects, milestones, deliverables
Special “Individuals” – direct assignments

Special Teams offers a smarter way to deploy quality Australian-based tech teams…

Saltworth delivers dedicated, skilled tech professionals, leaders and execs without the unnecessary “consultancy” layers.

We assemble “Special Teams” packaged around project deliverables to achieve business goals. We will also engage Special “Individuals” on this basis or supply direct to you via independent ABN’s as a fee-for-service provision or trailing commission:

Yes, we can agree on milestones

Agnes Carroll

Senior Product Designer & Educator

I was placed at Sportsbet by John Knight, who have single handedly built Sportsbet's software development team (except for one) at that time. Working with the team makes me realise that John Knight has a great eye for highly talented individuals.

Every one of the developers placed by him have impressed me - they're some of the best that I've ever worked with. He's fast, sharp and resourceful. If you need someone fast, he's definitely your man. I won't hesitate working with him again in the near future.
