Two Directors. Every conversation owned by one of them.

Co-Founder and Director, TPG Construction and TPG Engineering

Chris Tipper

Chris has built and scaled recruitment businesses and new divisions across healthcare, construction, engineering and trades. Before launching The Partnership Group he founded and led high performing teams, creating the playbooks for fast, compliant hiring and repeatable growth.

Today Chris leads TPG Construction, the site and project team, permanent and temp, and TPG Engineering: building services (mechanical and HVAC, electrical, plumbing and hydraulics, fire), data centres and health and safety. Clients value his straight talk, pace and accountability. Candidates remember the care and preparation.

Co-Founder and Director, TPG Nursing

Lily Waller

Lily leads TPG Nursing, across aged care, senior nursing, hospital, Multi-Purpose Services and rural and remote, permanent, contract and temp. She works with providers who have a roster to fill and nurses looking for their next contract or permanent role.

Lily worked on the floor in aged care and healthcare before she moved into recruitment, and she brings the same lens to every placement: what the job actually asks of someone on a hard day, not what the title says. Tight screening, straight communication and smooth onboarding on every placement.

Both Directors work every brief between them, and either can run a brief in any of the three markets.
