How a hire runs
How a hire runs.
The brief
We come out and see you before we take the role. The strategy, the desk, the billings, and the person you want more than the job description. Then we design the role with you.
The search
Passive, always. No adverts and no mailshots, and no long list to work through. We approach people personally and bring you someone when they are right, exclusively to us.
The process
Prep and feedback on both sides, a debrief after every stage, and straight counsel through the offer. This is where most hires are won or lost.
After the offer
Onboarding starts at the interview, not on day one, and we stay part of it. Through notice, through any counter-offer, and once they have started.
Choosing
Not sure which one you need?
Working that out is our job. Tell us about the hire and we will tell you which level it needs, and why.
