Consult

A refreshingly personal approach to HR recruitment
As specialists in HR recruitment, at Consult we take a personal approach. That means we take the time to understand your business, your needs and your culture. In this way we can find candidates with the skills and aspirations to match your objectives perfectly, adding value to your business. It's an approach that has created consistently excellent results since 1989:

  • Over the last three years we have delivered on over 95% of all our retained assignments - a figure virtually unmatched in HR recruitment
  • In the same time period, 85% of candidates we have appointed are still with their employers, many having been promoted
We offer three distinct services to meet all your HR recruitment needs - mainstream, interim and executive. Whichever service you use, wherever you are in the UK, you'll benefit from the consistency and expertise of a mature team. Not only that, our independence allows us to concentrate on your best interests, rather than sales figures. We provide a personal, open approach with integrity and honesty to get the results you need.

Harness the skills of an outstanding track record
You don't just want the right people in your HR roles. You also want to know your recruitment is as cost-effective as possible. Here at Consult, we do the work at the front end to make sure we always deliver on brief, on time and on budget. We will spend time getting to know your business and perhaps even challenging your thinking. We will then work closely with you to prepare the brief and pinpoint your ideal candidates.

The recruitment process itself will be overseen by one of our consultants, chosen by you, who will be able to call upon extra resources within Consult whenever needed. While we take a friendly, informal approach, behind every assignment is a rigorous analysis procedure, providing statistics on candidate numbers, responses and trends. On average we shortlist five candidates to achieve each appointment, offering clients optimum use of management time. At the end of the assignment we will also conduct a formal review to assess progress and performance.

By working closely with clients and candidates, and by being totally transparent, we have built up an outstanding reputation in the industry. Thanks to the strong, personal relationships we build, over 70% of the work we do is for existing clients.

Find people at short notice - thanks to a powerful network
More and more employment is on a freelance or contract basis. At Consult we have a long and successful track record in providing interim appointments at all salary levels. Call on us for short term recruitment and we'll assess your needs to pinpoint the best way to find your ideal candidates. From press to online advertising, our experience in fast turnarounds means we have the skills to deliver time after time.

We also pride ourselves on our extensive database of leading HR professionals across every industry. The network is continually managed and controlled, ensuring that we have up-to-the-minute information on prospective candidates who can be immediately identified for particular roles.

Benefit from dedicated executive level recruitment
Consult Executive is our service dedicated to placing the highest calibre executives in key HR roles. With our in-depth knowledge of both the HR function and market, we are dedicated to finding the very best candidates for your business - inspirational leaders, strategists and commercial partners who will match your organisation's culture while challenging and developing it too.

In addition, our network and reputation enables us to attract specialists in Organisational Development, Talent Management, Diversity and Change Management and experts in Learning and Development, Reward, Employee Relations and Communication.

During the recruitment process we never forget we act as ambassadors for your business and your brand. As we appoint two dedicated consultants to every assignment, there'll always be someone at the end of the phone who knows your business inside out. Our attention to detail has led to a 100% successful track record on senior assignments and excellent retention rates, not to mention a sparkling portfolio of blue-chip clients.
