Hey, I'm Matt Woodard, and I appreciate you taking the time to explore scalr - the ultimate destination for all your Talent as a Service needs. Consider me your dedicated fractional Head of Talent and TA coach!

I have a deep-rooted passion for the recruitment industry, which has fuelled my drive over the past 15 years.

During this time, I have had the privilege of collaborating with some of the region's fastest-growing scale-ups including Xero, Zendesk and Slalom.

I’m excited to connect and work with you to create an exceptional TA function to help power your long term success.

A little about me…

I’ve been in talent acquisition since 2007, across New Zealand and Australia. I set up scalr in order to support businesses, either in early-stage growth or at a point of transition, to establish scalable strategies within high-performing talent functions.

Outside of work, I’m a devoted family man with a wife and two young kids. Captain of my Master's soccer-football team, Ashburton United, I continue to play the sport I love, despite age and injuries starting to take their toll!

I established the Melbourne Recruitment Meetup in 2015. It has now grown to over 1,750 members and helped create the most connected and supportive TA community in Australia. 

I continue to love recruitment and am excited to be helping blossoming businesses create a solid foundation on which to enjoy lasting success.
