Contingency Search

You provide us with your criteria and we shortlist potential candidates. A fee is only paid if you find the right fit.

Retained Search

We work with you under a retainer whereby you pay a fixed amount for us to source a candidate for you. In return for this commitment we invest significant resources into the search: identifying, contacting and shortlisting candidates. A final part of the fee is paid once the candidate accepts the role.

RPO

You can choose to outsource your full recruitment process to us. We become an extension of your company getting to know your values and culture to source the right candidates. Service fees apply.
