We have developed our expertise in permanent, temporary and fixed-term recruitment, delivering on both a national and international scale.
Within these sectors, we create bespoke recruitment solutions, including MSP, RPO and retained searches. Our team has delivered end-to-end solutions, recruiting up to 500 permanent staff and 1,000 contract placements per annum across both technical and head office functions. Team activities include process design, management of over 400 recruitment agencies, and the implementation of vendor management (VMS) and applicant tracking system (ATS) technology.
What makes us different is that we are well-established and large enough to provide the dedicated resource and expertise required to deliver a successful RPO solution, whilst small enough to create a bespoke product that is designed to actively target and resolve our client’s pain points. Rather than servicing a large portfolio of RPO clients, we work very closely with a few select clients, meaning that each solution receives our full focus.
