My Story
Hi, I’m David Ford, Founder of Professionals Hub. After nearly 20 years in recruitment on the Gold Coast, I saw firsthand how important local professional connections are — especially when the pandemic shut everything down in 2020.
I started the Gold Coast Professionals Hub on LinkedIn to give professionals a place to connect, collaborate, and grow together. Today, it’s grown into a thriving community where business relationships, peer-driven collaboration, and genuine connections are at the heart of everything we do.
Reviews

I’m incredibly grateful for joining his Gold Coast Professional Hub Community and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to build their network on the Gold Coast, expand their professional relationships, and advance their career.. ”
