It says a lot about the level of support we provide to candidates throughout the selection process that many of them go on to become loyal clients.
As experts within automotive executive search, we can provide you with superb opportunities to advance your career but we appreciate that everyone has different needs and concerns – just as everyone brings different skills, qualities and experiences.
That’s why we manage you throughout the interview process, providing continual feedback right up to, and including, the offer stage. We’ll even check back on you once you’ve started your new position, just to make sure you are happy and flourishing in the role.
We really pride ourselves on the quality and frequency of our communications with candidates. Our role has been likened by some to that of a friendly but highly professional coach.
An example of this is the care we take to brief you carefully on a client before your interview with them to avoid any surprises and ensure you have made the right decision in pursuing the opportunity.
This benefits our clients, too, by making sure their brand is properly communicated so that the decisions you make are fully informed and, ultimately, right.
Your individuality is important to us. We are one of the automotive industry’s most prominent and vocal advocates of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, having partnered leading brands to organise seminars, workshops and conferences on the topic.
We want you to fulfil your potential, and we go the extra mile to make it happen.
We work on a retained basis, which means that a client will ask us to perform a specific search for a particular role with them – we do not take on roles by any other method and therefore we deal with fewer roles, but in greater detail.
The other way recruitment works is on a contingent basis, where a company will often have a large list of potential candidates, often within a specific industry (but that is not always the case). This works the opposite way to retained recruitment, in that the consultants will largely do business by searching for roles for their candidates.
Many large recruitment companies will do both, but as a specialist organisation, we work for specific clients on specific roles.
We are an Executive Search company, and as such we do not normally make placements via speculative applications. We source our candidates in relation to roles we have already been asked to complete a search for and therefore we proactively research candidates who fit these roles.
However, from time to time we understand that individual candidates may contact us with respect to their career progression. In this instance we make every possible attempt to ascertain if the candidate is suitable for any open roles we hold. We will conduct a career call with the candidate to understand their skills and requirements and will match them against our current role portfolio. If no match is made, we will then contact the candidate to advise them as such and will place their CV in our records. Should anything suitable become available, they will be matched to that role and contacted again.
