We’ve been
in your boots.

Recruitment built for the trade industry.

Most recruiters have never been in a roof space in their life. We have.

Rivina was started by tradies who got sick of watching companies waste time on bad hires, and candidates waste time on jobs that weren’t right for them.

We work exclusively in HVAC, refrigeration and electrical. That focus means we move faster, ask better questions, and send you people worth meeting.

Industry expertise in screening means we know the difference between someone who interviews well and someone who can actually do the work.

02 / CONNECTIONS

We source in-market talent every day. Active sourcing finds passive candidates most job ads never reach. We know the market and move quickly when roles are urgent.
