History

Seek was founded in November 1997[2] by Andrew Bassat, Paul Bassat and Matt Rockman as an online version of print employment classifieds, and it launched its website in March 1998.[3] On 18 April 2005, Seek was floated on the Australian Securities Exchange with a market capitalisation of $587 million.[4]

In May 2022, it moved its head office to a newly-constructed building in Cremorne, Victoria.[5]
