Hiring shouldn’t feel like a never-ending to-do list. That’s why so many organisations across Northern Ireland partner with us — not just to fill roles, but to make the entire recruitment process smoother, smarter, and far more effective.
For over 25 years, we’ve supported companies of all sizes with recruitment and talent solutions shaped around real market knowledge and genuine sector expertise. Here’s what that looks like when you work with us.
Access to a large, high-quality candidate network - a network of talent you won’t find on job boards
We’ve built a deep and diverse pool of vetted professionals across Tech, Finance, HR, Legal, Public Sector, Executive-level, Built Environment e.g. construction, Engineering and Manufacturing, Business Support, Allied Health and Medical, Life Sciences and more. Many of these candidates aren’t actively applying for jobs, but they are open to the right move — which means you get access to people you simply wouldn’t reach through standard channels.
Sector specialists who actually understand your industry and the world around it
Each of our consultants focuses on a defined area, so you’ll speak with someone who knows the skills, salary expectations, and competitive landscape in your industry. That leads to more accurate shortlists and stronger long-term matches.
Our consultants focus on specific sectors, so we understand:
Required technical skills
Salary expectations
Market competition
What attracts top performers
Thus ensuring better candidate matching.
Faster hiring and reduced internal workload
Recruitment admin is time-consuming, so we take on the heavy lifting — writing ads, reviewing CVs, carrying out pre-screens, and presenting a shortlist of people worth meeting. Your internal team gets back valuable time, and the hiring process moves far more quickly, allowing your internal team to focus on final stages and selection.
Employer branding support: Support with how your brand comes across to candidates
We help employers communicate what makes them a great place to work. Whether it's improving job specs, refining messaging, or offering honest insight into market perception, we make sure your organisation is shown in the best possible light.
Clear salary benchmarking and real-time market insight
Because we’re constantly immersed in hiring trends and salary data, we can advise on competitive pay, benefits, market demand and talent shortages. This helps you craft offers that attract and retain top talent.
Confidential or hard-to-fill role recruitment: Discreet recruitment for sensitive or challenging roles
Some positions need to stay under the radar. Whether it’s a leadership change, a confidential replacement, or a role that’s proving tricky to fill, we can run targeted and private searches that protect your organisation’s privacy.
Permanent, contract, and executive-level hiring
From day-one starters to contract cover, senior appointments, and full project-led recruitment, we adapt to what your organisation needs. Large or small, urgent or long-term — we handle it.
Higher quality candidates through rigorous screening: Candidates who are properly assessed before they reach you
Every CV that reaches you has already gone through a thorough screening process. We assess technical skills, motivations, and cultural fit for long-term suitability and so you only meet people who are genuinely aligned with your team and goals. This improves retention and reduces mis-hires.
If you’re looking for a recruitment partner that understands the market, supports your challenges, and consistently delivers people who make a real impact, we’re already doing it for hundreds of employers across Northern Ireland — and we can do the same for you.
