Recruitment

We understand that small businesses face unique challenges when it comes to hiring the right talent. Recruiting is time intensive and, when you are a small team, finding the time and space to dedicate to finding a new team member can seem overwhelming.

Additionally, navigating equal opportunities legislation, conducting competency and skills assessments, and performing right-to-work checks can feel daunting. Without proper handling, these tasks come with significant financial and reputational risks.

Our Fixed Fee Recruitment Services are designed specifically for small clients, providing a straightforward solution that removes the uncertainties and complexities of traditional recruitment processes.

We offer 360 recruitment solutions and can handle the entire recruitment process from start to finish including sourcing, screening, interviewing, and onboarding, ensuring you find the right talent quickly and efficiently. You decide how much support you need.
