Why us?
We specialise in servicing particularly ‘candidate-short’ markets, meaning as a relevant employer, attracting talent is a strategic, time-consuming and highly competitive process. For every candidate you deem suitable to make an offer, there can often be 5+ competitors doing the same. It is therefore vital you have specialist support not only identifying candidates regularly, but also positively promoting your brand to influence decisions. That’s where we come in.
We headhunt, assess and network with top talent for a living. 100’s of calls every week, targeting professionals that are not actively ‘on the market’. By partnering with us, your brand will be promoted and introduced to candidates who would otherwise have no idea you exist.
Recruitment Solutions
Contingency
Simply put, no hire, no fee. We will complete the entire recruitment cycle for you until the perfect candidate has been identified. Only when the candidate starts is a fee due.
Retained
An exclusive, personalised agreement otherwise known as executive search, usually for the more specialised, tough to fill requirements. With this method, we become an extension of your business on an exclusive basis, with an accountability to find the right fit (fee paid in 3 instalments: 1st at the beginning, 2nd once agreed milestone achieved, 3rd when candidate starts).
Contract
Ideal solution if you need a quick-fix or the services of a specialist consultant. Our wide network of contractors can be engaged on an hourly, daily or ‘per inspection’ basis, depending on your needs. Flexible, low-risk and cost-effective when short-term.
Benefits to you
Market Expert
Our consultant’s have reputations in the markets they recruit as experts. Not only does this offer you access to an invaluable network of suitable candidates, it also means we receive regular referrals of those ‘passive’ candidates whom aren’t actively applying to roles.

Our values underpin everything we do
Quality
To recruit the best for the best, you have to be the best. We cannot expect exceptional results without exceptional quality, so you can rest assured we always go above and beyond in everything we do for both candidates and clients.
Transparency
We pride ourselves on forging long-term successful partnerships, which is not possible without complete transparency. If we’re aware of information that may result in a candidate rejecting an offer, we won’t hesitate to offer it to ensure there are no surprises later down the line. No ‘quick wins’. We only win when both candidate & client win.
Empathy
We are caring, curious people who possess a desire to know and understand others. We seek first to understand another’s perspective, circumstance and feelings, then respond appropriately. This value ensures not just an outcome but the right outcome.
Reliability
We cannot expect to be a trusted recruitment partner without reliable quality. Being worthy of trust takes time whilst building strong relationships requires reliability, hence this is at the core of our values.
