Meet Our Founder

I started this agency in 2009 with a phone, a laptop, and 15 years of in-house recruitment experience. I had spent long enough watching agencies send the wrong candidates, miss deadlines, and charge fees they had not earned. I knew it could be done better because I had been on the receiving end of everything that was wrong with it.

Seventeen years later, we have placed over 3,000 candidates, built a team of 24 specialist consultants, and kept clients who signed up in year one. We are still independent, still privately owned, and still run by someone who actually worked in recruitment before deciding to sell it.

What I Believe
  • Every client deserves a consultant who understands their sector, not just their job spec
  • Candidates are professionals, not stock to be shifted
  • Recruitment fees should reflect the work that went into earning them
  • If we cannot fill a role properly, we will say so upfront
  • The best agencies are built on repeat business, not one-off transaction

How We Work

Six steps from briefing to placement. No shortcuts.

Briefing

We learn your business first

Briefing

Every search starts with a proper conversation.

We meet your hiring managers, understand the role in context, learn what has worked before and what has not, and agree on a clear specification before we approach a single candidate.

Market Mapping

Know who is out there

Market Mapping

We map the relevant talent pool before we start calling. That means identifying active candidates, passive targets, and competitor employees who match the brief.

You see the landscape before we start the search.

Sourcing

Active search, not passive waiting

Sourcing

We headhunt, network, and search. We do not post an advert and wait.

Our consultants use direct approaches, referrals, and our 14,000-strong candidate database to build a targeted long list within the first week.
