A structured approach to hiring
1. Strategic Briefing
Every search begins with a detailed consultation to understand the true business need behind the vacancy. We discuss the commercial objectives attached to the role, the required experience and leadership style, salary positioning within the current market, team dynamics and your expected hiring timeline. This ensures we recruit with purpose rather than simply reacting to a job description.
2. Market Mapping & Targeted Search
Once aligned, we build a focused sourcing strategy. This involves proactive headhunting, direct outreach to passive candidates, engagement across professional networks and sector-specific market mapping. Our aim is to identify high-calibre individuals who may not be actively applying but are open to the right opportunity.
3. Structured Screening & Qualification
Before any candidate is introduced, we conduct a full screening process. This includes reviewing experience in depth, understanding motivation for change, confirming salary expectations and notice periods, and ensuring genuine interest in your opportunity. We only present candidates once alignment has been established.
4. Interview & Offer Management
We coordinate interviews efficiently, manage feedback from both sides and maintain momentum throughout the process. Where an offer is made, we assist with negotiation, counter-offer management and expectation alignment to reduce risk and increase acceptance certainty
5. Completion & Post-Placement Support
Our involvement does not end at offer acceptance. We remain engaged through the notice period and provide follow-up after the candidate has commenced employment, ensuring a smooth transition and supporting long-term retention.
