As Director and Name Partner at Woods & Co, Tom brings a deep-rooted passion for people and a background in hospitality that naturally led him into recruitment. His recruitment journey began in an agency setting, where he discovered a talent for connecting people with opportunity. That experience sparked the launch of his own business, which has since expanded to Melbourne and New York City, with a team of 30+ across both continents. With extensive experience in permanent and temporary placements, negotiation, sales, and relationship management, Tom has been instrumental in shaping the Woods & Co culture. His drive, work ethic, and leadership continue to fuel the growth of our Australian and North American offices, ensuring we consistently connect the right people with the right opportunities. Outside of the office, Tom can be found surfing, playing golf, and cheering on the Richmond Tigers.
