Each mandate is led personally by the Managing Partner. We map the market in full, we don't sample it.

Defence

Primes, systems integrators and sovereign capability programs, engineering, program and commercial leadership across land, sea, air and mission systems.

05

Technology

Industrial software, automation and the technical leadership translating code into tonnes, watts, yield and mission.

Mandate

A working session with the hiring manager, whether that is the CEO, a divisional head, a functional leader or a board sponsor. We define the role, the market and the measure of success, in writing.

II

Map

A complete, named map of the relevant talent market. Every credible candidate, in and out of role, in and out of country. Built personally, not pulled from a database.

III

Engage

Direct, discreet approaches. Each candidate is assessed against the brief on technical depth, commercial track record and cultural fit, not ranked against the others.

IV

Land

Shortlist, references, offer and onboarding. We stay close through the first twelve months, the placement isn't done until it works.

The Romaris view

The industrial economy is not won by résumés. It is won by the few people who can actually do the work, and most of them are not looking.

Managing Partner

Antonio J. Rojas

Antonio brings more than twenty years of professional experience across senior commercial leadership and military service in the sectors Romaris Partners now recruits for.

Across mining technology, industrial automation, energy and defence, in Australia, Asia-Pacific and the Americas, he has led business development, built commercial teams, and operated at the intersection of technical delivery and revenue growth, working alongside the engineers, project managers and operational leaders he now places.

A former commissioned officer, he holds an MBA in Leadership.

He founded Romaris Partners on a single conviction: the best searches are led by people who have done the work, not people who have only hired for it.

Every mandate is run personally. Every shortlist is earned through direct conversation, not pulled from a database.
