Recruitment that works

FINDING THE RIGHT APPROACH FOR YOUR ROLE

Finding the right people is one of the most important things a growing business does - and one of the most expensive to get wrong. A poor hire costs time, money, and energy.

For most SME roles our fixed fee packages offer outstanding value and complete cost transparency - you know exactly what you're paying before we start, regardless of the salary you offer. Our fixed fee model works best for roles up to around £35,000, where the savings against traditional agency fees are most significant and the process is most straightforward to manage.

For more senior roles above £35,000 a fixed fee becomes less practical - the complexity, time investment, and seniority of the search warrants a different approach. For these roles we offer a percentage-based fee, currently set competitively below the industry standard, with the full Managed service included as standard. You still get everything - multi-board advertising through Hireful, full candidate management, interview coordination, offer support, and candidate guarantee -  just with a fee structure that reflects the level of the role.

And for highly specialist or niche positions where the talent pool is small and deep sector expertise is needed, we work with a carefully selected partner agency whose knowledge in their field is second to none. We manage that relationship on your behalf, briefing them, managing the process, and acting as your single point of contact throughout, so you get specialist reach without the complexity of managing an agency relationship yourself.

Whatever you're hiring for, we'll tell you honestly which approach is right for your role and your budget  - and if a different route would serve you better, we'll say so.

At the heart of our recruitment service is our partnership with Hireful. Embedded into every package we offer, Hireful is what allows us to run your recruitment process with the kind of efficiency, consistency, and candidate experience that most SMEs simply don't have access to on their own.

Through our partnership with hireful, we provide comprehensive recruitment support to clients. This includes access to an applicant tracking system, multi-channel job board advertising, and trusted agency support, helping you to attract and hire the best talent efficiently.

Every role can be posted across multiple job boards simultaneously - reaching more candidates, faster, without the manual effort. Every application comes into one place, tracked and managed through a single system so nothing gets missed and no candidate is left waiting. Diversity and inclusion tools are built in as standard; anonymised applicant data, accessibility features and disability confident application highlighting, that helps you hire fairly and compliantly without additional cost or complexity. And because everything runs through Hireful's ATS, you get clear reporting and insights on every campaign - time to hire, source effectiveness, and candidate pipeline - so you always know exactly where things stand.

HIRING FOR A MORE SENIOR ROLE?

Our fixed fee packages work brilliantly for roles up to around £35,000 but for more senior positions the search becomes more complex, more time intensive, and requires a deeper level of involvement at every stage. For these roles we offer a percentage-based fee, structured to match the market but with one significant difference: our full Managed service is included as standard.

That means you're not just paying for a placement. You get everything - Hireful ATS, multi-board advertising, full candidate management, interview coordination, offer support, and our candidate guarantee - at a fee that's in line with what a traditional agency would charge for a basic placement alone. Same cost, significantly more support.

Roles £35,001 - £50,000 — 15%

Roles £50,001 - £75,000 — 18%

Roles £75,000+ by agreement

Need a Specialist or Niche Hire?

Some roles require deep sector expertise and access to a talent pool that goes beyond job board advertising - highly technical positions, specialist functions, or senior leadership hires where the right candidate isn't actively looking. For these we work with a carefully selected partner agency whose knowledge in their field is second to none.

You get specialist reach and sector expertise without the complexity of managing an agency relationship yourself, and with the reassurance of having an experienced HR professional in your corner at every stage.

Looking for temporary staff?

Sometimes you need people quickly, to cover a busy period, manage a short term project, fill a gap during a restructure, or simply test whether a role is needed on a permanent basis before committing to a hire. Through our agency partnership we can also support you with temporary and contract staffing, giving you fast access to vetted, reliable candidates without the lengthy recruitment process.

Our partner agency covers both blue and white collar temporary staffing across a range of sectors including Logistics, Manufacturing, Head Office functions, and Customer Service, meaning whether you need a warehouse operative tomorrow or a customer service team for a seasonal peak, we can help you find the right people at the right time.
