The Specialist
in Executive
Support
Recruitment.
Boutique Consultancy connects Australia's leading organisations with exceptional Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants and Business Support professionals — through a relationship-driven approach that never compromises on fit.
"Recruitment built on relationships.
Every brief, handled personally."
Our Difference
We Don't Fill Roles.
We Make the Right Match.
Boutique Consultancy exists to do one thing exceptionally well — connect organisations with the Executive and Personal Assistants who are genuinely right for them. Not almost right. Right.
About Boutique ConsultancySpecialist,
Not Generalist
Executive Support recruitment is not one of twenty practice areas for us — it is the only area. That singular focus produces a depth of market knowledge, candidate relationships and role understanding that a generalist agency cannot replicate.
Relationship-Driven
by Design
Every brief is handled personally. Every candidate is known, not processed. There is no volume target that overrides quality judgment. Clients receive a curated shortlist — not a database export.
Values Alignment,
Not Just Skills
The right EA is not simply the most qualified EA. They are the one whose working style, communication approach and values align with the principal's. Our process is built around that belief — and it is why our placements last.
"Every candidate. Every brief. Handled personally — by someone who genuinely cares about the outcome."
For Candidates
Your Career Deserves a
Recruiter Who Understands It.
We represent you — not just your CV. We will never put you forward for a role that is not genuinely right for you. Your reputation matters to us, and so does your career.
Whether you are actively looking or simply open to the right conversation, register with us today.
Register Your Interest
Share your background, career aspirations, and what the right next role looks like for you. This is a conversation, not a form submission.
Meet Your Consultant
You will speak directly with an experienced consultant who understands EA and PA roles from the inside — not a junior generalist following a checklist.
We Match Intentionally
We only put you forward for roles that genuinely suit your skills, personality and career direction. We will not waste your time — or our clients'.
An Ongoing Relationship
Whether you place this month or in twelve months, the relationship continues. Boutique is a long-term career partner, not a transactional service.
For Clients
Executive Support
Recruitment,
Done Properly.
We maintain deep, long-term relationships with EA and PA professionals across Australia — including passive candidates not visible on job boards. What you receive is a considered shortlist, not a volume play.
Access to Exceptional Talent
Our candidate relationships span years, not days. We introduce you to professionals who are not on the open market — because they trust us to represent them carefully.
Discretion at Every Stage
Your brief, your organisation's dynamics and your leadership requirements are handled with complete confidentiality. Details are shared only on a strict need-to-know basis.
A Shortlist Worth Your Time
You will receive a curated shortlist of candidates who meet both the technical requirements and cultural fit of the role. We do not send ten CVs and hope one sticks.
Beyond Placement
The relationship does not end at offer acceptance. We remain available through the settling-in period, supporting both client and candidate through the transition.
Where Our Clients Operate

Australian Business

What Our Clients & Candidates Say
The Relationships
That Define Us.
After every placement, both sides of the relationship choose to come back. That is the measure we care about most.
Boutique found us someone who genuinely understood what our CEO needed from an EA. We had tried other agencies. The difference in candidate quality — and in the briefing process itself — was immediately apparent.
C. Mitchell
Chief Operating Officer, Financial Services
The shortlist we received was exactly that — short, considered and relevant. Every candidate was a serious option. That is not something we have experienced with other recruitment firms.
S. Harrington
Managing Director, Professional Services
We have used Boutique Consultancy three times across three very different EA briefs. Each time, they took the time to really understand what we needed — and delivered. They are now our first call.
A. Reynolds
Head of People & Culture, Legal
What stood out was that they seemed to genuinely care about the outcome — not just filling a vacancy, but making sure we had the right person for a critical role. That came through in everything.
J. Thornton
Founder, Investment Management
I have engaged many recruiters over my career. Boutique is the only one that felt like a true partner. They understood our culture, our pace, and what our principal needed — without me having to explain it twice.
M. Clarke
Executive Director, Property Group
Boutique found us someone who genuinely understood what our CEO needed from an EA. We had tried other agencies. The difference in candidate quality — and in the briefing process itself — was immediately apparent.
C. Mitchell
Chief Operating Officer, Financial Services
I felt like an individual, not a number. They took the time to understand what I actually wanted from my next role — not just what was on my CV. They only put me forward for opportunities that genuinely suited me.
K. Anderson
Executive Assistant, Legal Firm
Boutique Consultancy is the only recruiter I have dealt with who genuinely understood what an EA does at a senior level. The conversation felt nothing like a recruitment call — it felt like talking to someone who knew my world.
L. Patterson
Senior EA, Financial Services
They were honest with me about what was and was not right for where I was in my career. That honesty is rare. It meant that when they did put me forward, I knew it was worth my time — and it was.
R. Nguyen
Personal Assistant, Technology Sector
Three years after my placement, they still check in. That is not what I expected from a recruiter. It speaks to how they think about relationships — and why I refer anyone I know looking for an EA role directly to them.
T. Lawson
Chief of Staff, Property Group
I had been working with several agencies before I found Boutique. The difference was immediate. They genuinely matched me to a role based on who I am — not just what I had done. My current role is the best of my career.
