Understanding your business

It’s not all about the technical requirements on paper, so we take the time to understand your business, and the type of individuals that would thrive in your culture.

Bespoke recruitment solution

We can work in different ways to achieve success for you:

Retained extension of your HR team
Undertake the full, or just part, of the recruitment process
Tailored for your organisation
Flexible payment options

Sourcing the best candidates

Using:

Our comprehensive database of ready-to-work talent
Our extensive networks and alliances
On and offline advertising and search strategies
Targeted headhunting

Shortlisting and selection

Following our in-depth screening/interviewing process we can provide:

A short list to meet your requirements
Online skills testing
Psychometric testing
Interview panel attendance

Referencing

We strongly recommend that you seek references for each permanent employee engaged to guarantee their credibility. We can do this on your behalf on request. As a matter of course we take up references, and verify right to work in the UK, for all temporary workers.

We can also offer DBS checking services, if relevant for the post.

Offer management

We’ll support you right through to the final stages of the hiring process, ensuring that you secure your new hire in your ideal timescales, at the right salary level and we’ll “hand hold” through any notice period to avoid non-commencement.

Aftercare

We will keep in touch with you and your new hire in those first crucial weeks to ensure continued success.

We offer a 3 month guarantee period for every permanent placement. In the unlikely event that the hire is unsuccessful, we will replace the candidate at no extra charge, and if we can’t find someone right for you, you will qualify for a rebate in line with our Terms of Business.

For permanent placements you will only be invoiced once an appointment has been made. If there is no hire, then there will be no fee – it really is that simple.

And for temporary assignments you will only be billed for hours actually worked. Leave the recruitment and payroll burden to us whilst you get on with your day job. Simples.
