Every organisation, appointment and candidate is different, and our approach reflects this. We take the time to understand the requirements of our clients, the nature of the organisation, the responsibilities of the position and the type of individual who will ultimately succeed in the role.
Our consultants combine considerable recruitment experience with detailed market knowledge and established sector contacts. This allows us to conduct focused searches and approach suitable candidates who may not necessarily be actively seeking a new position.
For senior appointments, our Executive Search service provides clients with a detailed and extensive search process. The emphasis is on research and intensive searching, including direct approaches or “head hunting”, to identify appropriate candidates in line with the client’s requirements.
This is particularly important in a competitive employment market where many of the strongest candidates are already successfully employed and are unlikely to respond to conventional recruitment advertising.
We also recognise that retained Executive Search is not always the appropriate solution.
For mid-management and specialist appointments, our Contingency Recruitment service provides clients with a fast and efficient means of accessing professionals who are actively considering their next assignment.
Our relationships with candidates across the marketplace mean that we regularly come into contact with specialist professionals seeking new opportunities. We maintain a qualitative database of more than 1,000 candidates, which is reviewed every six months to ensure it remains current and quality focused.
Whichever recruitment method is most appropriate, the principles behind our service remain the same.
We provide a hands-on, professional and confidential service. We communicate openly with our clients and candidates, provide practical advice where required and remain focused on securing the right outcome rather than simply filling a vacancy.
It is an approach built around experience, market knowledge, integrity and long-term relationships — and one that has resulted in repeat business and referrals from the organisations and professionals we work with.
