What does Digital Native handle when we engage a contractor?

As a licensed labour hire provider, Digital Native engages the contractor and carries the employment obligations: payroll, superannuation, insurances and compliance. You receive one weekly invoice, and our contractor management continues for the life of the engagement.

Your team directs the work. We look after everything that comes with employing the person doing it.

Which contract technology roles do you fill?

Our strongest contract pipeline is in enterprise platforms (Microsoft Power Platform, Dynamics 365 and Azure), solutions architecture, project and program management, and software engineering.

We also supply contractors across data, DevOps and cloud, infrastructure and security, testing, business analysis and UX, covering the 18 technology disciplines in our Queensland Government capability statement.

How quickly can a contractor start?

We keep an active network of available technology contractors across Queensland and Australia, so a shortlist can come together quickly once we understand the requirement. Tell us your start date and we will tell you honestly whether it is realistic.

Some recent examples: for a government-owned corporation we sent a change manager's profile the day the brief arrived, and the contract was agreed two weeks later. For a large listed Queensland enterprise the first CV went in on the day of the briefing call, and on one Queensland Government request we had a candidate submitted within an hour.

Can a contractor become a permanent employee?

Yes. Temp-to-perm pathways are available, so you can engage someone on contract and convert them to a permanent hire once you know they are the right fit.

Do you supply contractors to government?

Yes. Digital Native is on the Queensland Government Temporary and Contracted Workers Preferred Supplier Panel (GGS0060 TCW PSP) and is a LocalBuy pre-qualified supplier for Queensland councils. See how agencies and councils engage us on our Government page.

A specialist on contract in under two weeks

First CV the same day as the briefing call

A large ASX-listed Queensland enterprise needed an enterprise service management specialist on a fixed-term contract, briefed through a recruitment marketplace. We took the brief by phone and put forward a qualified candidate the same day, then managed the interview, the offer questions and the onboarding paperwork.

The offer was approved 11 days after the first CV, and the specialist started the following month.

Four years, five hiring managers

14 hires; contract roles filled in 8 to 12 days

In 2017 the Brisbane office of a national data and analytics company had no budget for agency fees. When a front-end role proved hard to fill, its HR team approved an agency search and called us. We sent the first CV two days later and the role was filled inside a fortnight.

Over the next three and a half years we made 14 hires for five hiring managers across software, infrastructure, data and digital teams. For a three-month developer-portal rebuild we supplied a contract team, then filled follow-on roles in eight or nine days, including a replacement when one contractor resigned. One contractor moved into a permanent role. Two of the company's leaders later brought us into the organisations they moved to.
