Specialist talent for public & private sector organisations
Our client base is wide, from local authorities, housing associations, charities, property consultancies, landowners to funds and family offices.
Share the role details, the team context and what good looks like. The more specific, the better, we work from briefs, not job descriptions.
Our sector consultant activates their network first, before advertising, targeting people who could be right for you, including those not actively looking.
Three to five appointable candidates, not a pile of CVs. Every person on the list has been spoken to, assessed and prepared before they reach you.
Interview coordination, offer management, references and post-placement support. We stay involved until the probation period is clear.
Our consultants come from the disciplines they recruit in. They speak the language, know the organisations and understand what excellent looks like.
We average 8 working days from brief to shortlist. Our network is warm, we're not starting from scratch every time you call.
Same consultant, same brief, both delivery models. No handing off to a different desk when you need an interim instead of a permanent hire.
Fixed percentage for permanent, clear day-rate margins for interim. No hidden costs, no rebate small print that unravels.
