Recruitment › Permanent

The hire that has to hold.

The role you cannot afford to get wrong. We map the market rather than search a database, approach people who are not looking, and tell you early if the brief or the salary needs to move.

When it fits

You need to fill a key role with the right person.

Permanent is the right route when the appointment matters more than the speed, and when the person has to still be there in three years.

Market mapping
We build a picture of who is out there, where they sit and what it will take to move them. Live local data, not a national average.
Direct approach
Most of the people worth hiring are not applying for anything. We go to them, discreetly.
Assessment before you see anyone
Skills, motivation and fit, tested first. You get a shortlist with a reason attached to each name.
Salary guidance
What is actually being accepted in your market this quarter, not what a survey said last year.
Offer management
The offer, the counter offer and the notice period. Most hires are lost here, so we stay with it.
Executive and management appointments
Retained and research led where the appointment is senior or business critical, with a confidential approach and a dedicated lead consultant.

How it is bought

Three ways to engage us.

Contingency

You pay on success. Suited to roles with a reasonable candidate pool.

Contained

A commitment at the start and the balance on placement. More of our time, and a shortlist you can rely on.

Retained search

For senior, confidential or hard to fill appointments. A dedicated consultant, a research led process and agreed milestones.

Which offices deliver permanent, and what they specialise in, is on each office page.
