About us Our Services Our Specialisms The Recruitment Landscape Testimonials
We are unlike most other recruiters you will come across, we are a specialist management recruiter, a hybrid between an Executive Search business and a recruitment agency. The benefit to our clients is that we can offer choice. We look for solutions rather than sell a specific service - be it search, permanent campaigns, freelance, or a bespoke campaign that uses different elements of each. We focus on managerial, technical and first board appointments working in vertical niche markets. These specialisms have been developed over 25 years by our Directors and they match and mirror exactly what our clients do. This means you have the benefit of talking to someone who really knows what they are talking about.
We ask to be judged on what we have done rather than what we say we can do. We’ve done some really interesting work and are happy to stand behind our track record and list of references.
Our Board is made up of industry leaders. They have successful track records building specialist recruitment businesses. Our Business Sector Directors, who form our Management Board, are also your Account Directors and are some of the best specialists in the market. Our recruiters are also different. They have an average of 10 years’ recruitment experience and the average age is 35. We call it senior level recruitment by senior level recruiters.

Freelance Staff The supply of freelance personnel on daily / hourly rates. Good Freelance staff should enhance a team and we work hard to ensure that we deliver the right candidate with the right experience at the right time and price. so we employ the same rigorous approach to the identification of Interim Managers as we do for senior level permanent appointments. Interim Staffing The supply of specialist Interim Managers on either weekly / monthly hire or Fixed Term Contracts. Interim Managers need to hit the ground running and add value to a project or organisation from day one
Permanent Selection Success only (Contingent) or retained fee based permanent selection of talented professionals on permanent employment contracts. We understand good candidates are very difficult to find and all of our Consultants access a wide range of networks to identify the best candidates “in the market” rather than the best candidates “on the market”. Campaign Management The design and execution of multiple-hire campaigns including advertising, selection and on-boarding, ensuring smooth mobilisation of teams or specialists.
Search Executive Search campaigns for hard to fill or confidential roles. All our campaigns are designed and executed by a Director and Lead Consultant, using our in house research function and our bespoke Candidate Selection Matrix.

About Us Our Services Our Specialisms The Recruitment Landscape Testimonials
Recruitment is competitive Almost every business we meet has recruitment high on their agenda. They are either actively recruiting or are looking to add to their current headcount in the coming months. This makes the recruitment landscape competitive and the process more complicated and challenging. Standing out from the crowd Good candidates are difficult to find. Companies need to stand out from the crowd and need to market themselves to candidates in the same way as they market themselves to clients. As a result of the competitive landscape, candidates are rarely exclusive unless they are identified via a Search campaign. Our experience ensures that we represent our clients in a professional manner and our marketing helps our clients to raise their brand awareness to attract the best candidates. This could either be through the design of Candidate Briefing Packs, digitally published “Flipping Books”, co-ordinated social media campaigns or via direct Search.
About Us Our Services Our Specialisms The Recruitment Landscape Testimonials
Don’t compromise on your criteria Because good candidates are scarce it can be tempting to compromise on a specification when under pressure to appoint. However, a wrong hire is more costly than no hire and getting a campaign off on the right footing helps minimise risk. We use the unique MRG Matching Matrix to help our clients crystallise key selection criteria, defining those elements of experience and ability that puts one candidate ahead of another and helping widen the potential candidate pool. Best Practice – choosing your recruitment partner It seems there are more recruiters than ever; 4000 new recruitment businesses were registered in the UK last year making a total of over 20,000. This can frustrate rather than ease the process. Clients can be bombarded with irrelevant CVs and candidates approached with inappropriate opportunities. We cut through this wherever possible by working exclusively with candidates and clients thereby simplifying and controlling the process. Whilst longevity is not always a guarantee of excellence, we believe that experience, expertise and track record count. We have a track record that backs up what we say we do. We stand by our reputation and work closely with our clients and candidates to deliver what we say we can do.
