Retained recruitment is a more secure, focused and ultimately successful form of recruitment. Provided on an ongoing basis, as your retained recruiter you feel the benefit of close working collaboration, market place insight, strong candidate networks and the security of confidentiality when recruiting senior/strategic hires within your business.

As a retained recruiter I have more time to dedicate to the successful outcomes of your business needs and am able to gain a better understanding of your business, your culture and your future plans, whilst delivering the highest level of service and outcomes in order to facilitate your business goals.

Why Choose Retained Recruitment?
