Meet The Team – Karen Carter


Date you started with RPR Trades: 12th September 2016

Your Role with RPR: Regional Manager Gold Coast and Northern NSW

Why you like working with RPR:

The thing I like most about working with RPR Trades is that we are a skilled / semi-skilled focused agency working only within the blue-collar sector.  We don’t try to be ‘all things to all people’ enabling us to remain focused on our core industries and business.  Since joining RPR Trades, we have built a successful business working with many loyal clients who see the real value in partnering with an agency that has a core focus.  We take great pride in honouring our commitments and exceeding our client and candidates’ expectations.  In the last 6 or so months, finding great quality candidates has been a challenge, existing clients and many new clients have put their trust in RPR Trades to help them achieve their business goals.
As I personally have now been in the recruitment industry for nearly 20 years ( 5 years with RPR Trades in Sept 2021), I am still today meeting and working with clients that I met and worked with in 2002, they are just seeing an ‘older version of me’ now, as I was only in my early 20’s when I first met them.
It’s been great to see over the many years, candidates I may have placed so many years ago as now being a client where we are supplying them with staff of their own.

What you do outside of Work:

I enjoy spending as much quality time with my family – my husband and my 6-year-old son.  We enjoy everything the Gold Coast has to offer by frequently going out on out boat, going to the beach, parks and riding our electric scooters.
