Here at scudl, our headhunting, offshore recruiting and people management processes are truly second to none
We’ve been refining our talent acquisition processes to ensure we always source only the best of the best talent available to help your business grow.
We don’t simply send job ads out into the ether and hope for the best
More than 95% of our people come from referrals and individually headhunting the most skilled tech development and testing resources to suit your particular project.
Once we’ve got the right talent onboard, our high-end HR and people management systems support you and your new team from start to finish, regularly checking in and ensuring they have everything they need to help you succeed.
This is all part of the blue-chip service we pride ourselves on here at scudl, and the reason why we’re so confident in the people we find for you.
What truly sets us apart though is our culture and values.
At scudl, our people are our family – and that includes you.
We pride ourselves on creating a warm, inclusive and welcoming environment for our people to work – both here in Australia and in the Philippines.
It’s so important to us to ensure that we’re equally dedicated to supporting both our local and offshore teams to help them thrive and succeed.
That’s why we’ve built such a strong culture of giving back and providing opportunities for our people that they wouldn’t otherwise get; and we’re so proud of that.
Think offshore talent. Think scudl.
Our supportive culture is also extended to every Australian organisation we work with. We’re with you at every step along the way to ensure you’re always getting the best service from the best people to help you achieve your project vision and business goals.

Meet our scudl founders
Your partners in offshore IT recruitment and tech project success.
Our founders, Lisa and Tom, founded Scudl after noticing a clear gap in the offshore recruitment market. Not only did they want to help Australian businesses grow in a way that no one else was doing, but they also wanted to create more opportunities for the highly skilled Filipino tech talent and their families to thrive as well.

Lisa Kennedy
One half of the brainpower behind scudl, Lisa brings more than 20 years of IT recruitment experience to the table.
Dedicated to helping Aussie businesses and talented tech professionals thrive, Lisa is driven by the positive impact that scudl has on these people’s lives. For her, building the bridge between these two markets is a no-brainer and a total win-win.
The other driving force in Lisa’s life is her beautiful daughter, Lola. She is her ‘why’ and her motivation to be the best version of herself both at home and at work.

Tom Huckerby
Like Lisa, Tom brings a wealth of recruitment experience to scudl.
For him, the initial spark came when he hired his first Filipino team member and realised the high calibre of tech talent available in the country.
To Tom, every person who is a part of scudl is not just a name or a number, they are real people – and he is proud to be able to have such a profound impact on their lives through his work.
Away from scudl, Tom spends his time with his wife and kids, who he is constantly striving to provide a better quality of life for every day.
