Caroline Walters

Prodigy People Managing Director

Caroline is one of Australia’s leading recruitment professionals. She established her first recruitment company, Retail Therapy Recruiting Pty Ltd, in 2007. In her 20 years’ + experience in the recruitment industry, she has built a reputation based on trust and results.

Caroline has been the preferred recruitment partner for retail clients including ALDI Stores, L’Oreal, LVMH Group, Dan Murphy’s and within the aged care sector with companies such as Estia Health, Regis, Calvary, BaptistCare NSW and RFBI.

As a result of Caroline’s business growth and expansion into a broad range of recruitment service areas, Retail Therapy Recruiting was renamed Prodigy People in 2019.

Twelve outstanding women in our industry you should know about (March 2021)

After nine years as an employee across three different recruitment agencies, including gaining her start at Julia Ross and spending time at HJB, Caroline started her own her recruitment agency, Retail Therapy Recruiting, specialising in recruiting for retailers, based in Sydney. There’s not much tougher gig in recruitment than being a women agency owner recruiting for the rag trade, a sector notoriously dominated by penny-pinching alpha males. After relocating to the NSW southern highlands Caroline continued her business remotely and saw an opportunity to expand her business into healthcare. The Prodigy People brand was launched in November 2019 with Caroline quickly building a successful business that impacts her local community.
