We’ve made it simple to budget for your recruitment needs and depending on your needs we can either quote a percentage fee upon placement or a fixed fee and payment plans can be arranged upon request.
- We sure can. This is our preferred way of working and part of our standard process, we don’t charge an additional fee for head hunting, our aim to find you the perfect candidate and we leave no stone unturned in our quest!
We don’t just find you great candidates, we actually really care about them succeeding in their new role. We keep in contact with them throughout their onboarding phase and if either party believes they’re not a perfect match, we encourage you to reach out to us for support.
