How It Works

Our permanent recruitment process is simple and fully transparent

We start by working closely with your hiring managers to define the role, required skills, and cultural fit. This ensures we fully understand your objectives and can target candidates who are the best match for your organisation.

Our fees are based on a percentage of the candidate’s agreed remuneration, typically averaging 25–30%. Terms are agreed upfront, giving you full transparency and aligning our interests with yours.

Using our specialist network, we identify and approach candidates with the right experience, qualifications, and career trajectory. We conduct multiple screening calls and pre-qualification checks to ensure candidates meet your technical and professional requirements.

We provide a curated shortlist of candidates, including:

  • Detailed CVs highlighting relevant experience and achievements
  • Character referencing, including background checks if required
  • Insight into previous project experience

We also offer CV review sessions to streamline feedback and reduce delays.

We guide both your team and the candidate through interviews, providing interview feedback sessions to help you make informed decisions. Once a candidate is selected, we support offer negotiations and final acceptance. A rebate period is included, which is discussed upfront, giving you added security and peace of mind.
