Our story

Why you can trust MASA

Measured Ability Staffing Australia (MASA) might be a fresh face in the local job market but we’re powered by decades of global labour hire expertise through the MASA Group.

Our journey started back in 1985, when our founding team launched Capital Outsourcing. Long before recruitment went digital, we were already helping people into part-time, temporary and permanent blue-collar roles, earning a reputation for doing the right thing by both workers and businesses.

By 1990, we expanded through Greys Recruitment, and though Capital was sold in 2003, that was just the beginning. In 2009, MASA Outsourcing was born, built to meet the need for better, fairer and more efficient staffing solutions in a changing world.

In 2014, several of our original leaders came back to MASA, bringing years of hands-on knowledge and a real understanding of what workers and employers both need to succeed.

Now, the MASA Group supports over 200 companies globally and in Australia, Measured Ability Staffing Australia (MASA) is here to do the same: connect hardworking people with real jobs in industries that keep the country running.

Whether it’s a one-day shift, part time work to suit your lifestyle or something more long-term, we’ve got the experience, systems and team to get you working quickly and safely.

When you choose MASA, you’re not just signing up with any agency. You’re backed by a team that’s been doing this for nearly 40 years.

What we stand for

 

Our values aren’t just for show, they guide how we treat every worker, every job and every opportunity.

We believe a fair day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay. That means real jobs with real respect, where you’re treated right from day one. We stand for honesty, fairness and doing the right thing even when it’s the hard thing.

Whether you’re on a one-day job or a long-term contract, we’ve got your back. We work with employers who respect their teams, and we don’t compromise when it comes to safety, pay or doing things properly.

At the end of the day, we’re not just here to fill roles. We’re here to look out for you. Because a great job agency should stand by its people – always.

Our job placement process

 

We don’t just throw you into any job, we take the time to make sure it’s the right fit for you. Our process is designed to set you up for success, so you feel confident, safe and supported from day one.

Here’s how we do it:

We chat face-to-face (or over the phone) to get to know you. Your skills, attitude and what kind of work you’re after.

We check your experience with two solid references so we know where you’ve worked and how you got on.

We verify your right to work in Australia, making sure everything’s legit and compliant.

We confirm your licences and qualifications, whether it’s a forklift ticket, White Card or high-risk certs.

We run basic checks if needed, like police clearances or medicals for certain sites.

We help with site readiness including PPE, inductions and any extra training you might need.

We even offer literacy or skills assessments if needed, just to make sure the job suits your strengths and you feel comfortable from the get-go.

Why do we go to all this effort?

Because we want you to feel confident that the job you’re walking into is safe, fair and right for you. We back you with the info and gear you need, so when you step on site, you’re ready to go.
