Our Process

Our process

How a permanent search runs, from first brief to signed contract.

We recruit for permanence, not volume. Each search is narrow by design: a few qualified people, approached directly and vetted properly, not a long list sent at speed.

Below is how a typical mandate runs. One point of contact handles it throughout.

Stage by Stage

Four stages

1

The Brief

We learn the role, the team and the operational reality before any names are discussed, so the search is measured against the right standard from the outset.

First Contact
2

The Search

We approach the right people from our network directly and in confidence. We identify those whose background fits the brief, rather than advertising widely and hoping.

Direct Search
3

The Vetting

Background, references and licensing are verified before anyone reaches your shortlist. Sensitive checks are handled discreetly, and we put forward only people we stand behind.

In Confidence
4

The Placement

A short, qualified shortlist, then a permanent appointment made to last. We stay the point of contact for both sides as the appointment settles.
