Sybille Goss pairs remarkable intuition with the rigour of process to gain a real understanding of the objectives and culture of her clients. Her love of finding the right people for the right role delivers two-way success for her clients and their new talent. From her career start in 1995, Sybille developed a strong background in recruiting for the information technology (IT) industry, with a particular focus on manufacturing and large multinational clients such as Nestle. Sybille joined Carroll Consulting in 2003 with a mandate to continue recruiting in-demand IT roles. Embracing the business philosophy of deeply understanding the client and role, she broadened her focus to include sales and sales management, human resources, and marketing roles. 2011 saw Sybille depart to spend more time with her family and support her husband’s successful film and photography business. She returned to Carroll Consulting in 2019.

Alexandra Monks joined Carroll Consulting in 2019 and brings with her a strong passion for aligning people with roles that suit their experience and skills. Alexandra’s drive for engaging with people and determining role-fit started in her teens when she gained invaluable work experience with a family member who ran a very successful search consultancy. During this time Alexandra researched market segments, contacted people to understand their skills and ambitions and was responsible for clearly defining the skill requirements for each assignment. From this solid start, Alexandra went on to complete a degree in Industrial Relations, Human Resource Management and Psychology in 2014 (Golden Key International Honours Society Member).

Alexandra has experience in client engagement and support roles in the legal and manufacturing industries and has built a career in recruitment focusing on resourcing and filling vacancies in the accounting and legal sectors.  Now a key member of the Carroll Consulting team, Alexandra is excited about the opportunity to apply the culture-fit methodologies used in the business, focusing on senior accounting and leadership support roles across manufacturing and professional services as well as leadership roles in the legal environment. Alexandra tackles each assignment with professionalism and works closely with clients to articulate ideal behaviours for roles and draw out repeating patterns of behaviour in candidates to determine suitability. She is committed to achieving high levels of engagement, performance and job satisfaction for the candidate and a stronger contribution towards the client’s strategic goals and objectives.
