Our guarantees in detail

Our guarantees in detail

Quality

Quality is at the heart of how we recruit. We focus on delivering shortlists that are genuinely relevant, well-assessed, and worth your time, not volume for the sake of activity. Every candidate we put forward is screened for technical ability, sector understanding, and cultural alignment, ensuring they are a credible fit for both the role and the wider team.

This approach is particularly valued by law firms and professional services businesses that want to hire carefully, protect their employer brand, and avoid the disruption caused by poor hiring decisions. By prioritising depth over speed alone, we help clients build stronger, more stable teams.

What this means in practice:

  • Focused shortlists of candidates you will actually want to meet

  • Right-to-work checks completed before any shortlist is shared

  • Skills, sector context, and cultural fit assessed as standard

In short: fewer CVs, better conversations, and stronger long-term hires.

Speed

Hiring delays cost time, revenue, and momentum. Our recruitment process is designed to move quickly without compromising on quality, using structured search sprints and clear timelines from the outset. For common roles, we aim to deliver shortlists within five working days of a confirmed brief.

This is particularly valuable for busy departments under workload pressure or firms scaling quickly. By keeping search activity time-boxed and interviews well-paced, we help clients secure strong candidates before they are lost to competing offers.

Our approach to speed includes:

  • Shortlists for common roles within five working days from brief

  • Agreed interview windows

  • Rapid scheduling to maintain candidate engagement and momentum

In summary: pace and purpose, not rushed decisions.

Book Consultation

Communication

Clear, honest communication underpins every successful recruitment process. We provide proactive updates throughout active searches, ensuring clients are never left guessing about progress, candidate availability, or market conditions. Our role is to act as a trusted advisor, not just a messenger.

This is especially important in competitive candidate markets, where transparency around salary expectations, hybrid working, and motivations can make or break a hire. We believe informed clients make better decisions, and we make sure you have the full picture at every stage.

You can expect:

  • Proactive updates every 48 hours during active searches

  • Honest market feedback on salary, flexibility, and candidate drivers

  • Clear debriefs after each interview round

The result: aligned expectations, fewer surprises, and smoother hiring journeys.

Book Consultation

Accountability

We take ownership of the recruitment process from initial brief through to start date and beyond. Each client works with a single point of contact who is responsible for delivery, deadlines, and outcomes, not a hand-off between multiple consultants.

This level of accountability is particularly valued by firms that want a dependable recruitment partner who sees placements through properly, including offer management and post-placement support. Our involvement does not end when the offer is accepted.

Our accountability commitment includes:

  • One dedicated point of contact who owns your deadline

  • Full offer management through to the candidate’s start date

  • Post-placement check-ins

In essence: responsibility, follow-through, and long-term partnership.
