How can we help your HR career?
We only work with HR Professionals. It’s a profession we’re passionate about. We "get it".
What to expect
Our focus is on hiring for professionals across all specialist areas of the HR function. We have a further emphasis on working with leaders who have international adaptability - proven in their work across multiple countries or with global companies, or as bi/multi lingual professionals who have lived and worked outside of their home countries and across continents. We typically hire for HR leaders who have extensive experience and tenured careers within Fortune, FTSE and other similarly complex matrix multinational corporations.
Our own personal circumstances for varied upbringings, education levels, social cause involvement, and multiracial families mean we’re committed to avoiding bias through every aspect of our involvement in the hiring process. We refuse to work with job seekers and hiring leaders who do not share our values on equality.
We don't waste time
Our stable of employers typically have detailed hiring "wish lists" for their current and pending career roles so much as we'd like to, we cannot always take advantage of transferable skills. We will always be upfront about whether we can help you, or not – we’re not about to waste your time on pointless meetings, random roles, and KPI driven phone calls! We won't "string you along" with false expectations if we just cannot assist.
We secure exacting briefs for every hiring assignment, so we're able to share a wealth of insight over and above the stock standard job description - this helps you to determine in advance whether you want to invest time, effort and emotion in an interview process. Many of the companies we hire for have engaged us again and again for key leadership posts across their HR functions, which allows us deeper than usual insights into work cultures and business pressures - helping you to figure out "fit" potential, upfront.
How we support you
Protecting your confidentiality and ensuring discretion is essential to every member of our team. If we're working together, we will automatically provide constructive coaching and interview support to help you secure that fabulous "next role". We will work to understand your points of view, ensuring useful and transparent feedback, and giving you the respect and courtesy you deserve as an accomplished professional.
Our VIP network members can always access time with our expert team, for confidential career advice, independent counseling on roles you may be considering through other sources, and realistic opinions on market conditions and trends.
Our intention is for us to both enjoy a long-term, multi-level, equal partnership over many years, rather than just a "quick fling"!
“I am very grateful for your perfect guidance during the whole recruitment process, in which I always felt very well informed. I appreciate the over and above efforts you made to ensure I received all necessary details and context to allow me to present at my best through the hiring process. ”
“Job seekers who are not treated with respect will bypass even the sexiest company brands or seductive packages, for an employer who treats them with courtesy through an application process.”
Constant global analysis means we can advise what markets are "hot" for HR leadership roles, isolate the likely reasons for this, and offer meaningful predictions on HR career trends.
Please don't oversell your experience. I can spot B.S. a mile off, and I will rate you more for your honesty if you haven't done everything we need - instead assure me of your plans to learn and fill the experience gaps.
