Why Effective Recruitment and Retention Matter
Successful recruitment is about more than just filling an immediate vacancy. It’s about understanding the broader needs of your business and how each new hire can impact long-term success. We’ll help you align your recruitment strategy with your business plan and organisational objectives, ensuring you bring in people who fit your culture and have the motivation to succeed.
What is equally important is staff retention; keeping your team happy is a long-term strategy that fosters a positive work environment and drives ongoing success. We care about your business and its people, which is why we emphasise both aspects
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you a recruitment agency?
No, but we have strong relationships with experts in the field whom we can personally recommend.
How can you help me with recruitment?
We assist with various elements of recruitment, including job design, writing job descriptions, pay and benefits, and enhancing your employer brand.
Do I need to write a job description before recruitment?
While not mandatory, a well-written job description helps attract the right candidates and serves as a benchmark for assessing applicants.
What’s the best way to select the right candidate?
A comprehensive selection process that includes multiple sources of information (e.g., CV, references, interviews, tests) will yield more robust results than a simple phone chat. Selection should always be based on fair and objective criteria.
