What our clients say
We have used Top Talent for Business to source individuals to join our team and the experience was outstanding. Suzanne’s personalized approach, industry insights, and transparent communication were extremely helpful.
Thanks to their efforts, we successfully recruited individuals aligned with our goals. I would highly recommend Top Talent for Business to anyone looking to source top talent for their businesses.
The recruitment market in the UK is split into 3 main categories:
Agency
These usually work on a contingency basis with fees ranging from 15-25%, climbing according to salary. They will advertise your position under their logo and search their database for candidates. The majority of candidates are NOT interviewed, and job/candidate matching is done by algorithm. Motivation – placing candidates for the highest salary and highest fee. AKA the “spray and pray” market. The time frame is usually 2 weeks to produce CVs. – Sliding scale rebate 12 weeks max (typically 5-10% in wk12)
Search & Selection
A hybrid between agency, i.e. database search plus selected advertising and LinkedIn searching. Fees range from 20-30% paid on a retained basis. The time frame is anywhere from 4-12 weeks, depending on vacancy. Rebate period 3 months sliding scale
Head Hunters
Typically charge 30-35% again on a retained basis. Consultants will spend time with the client, getting to know and understand the company and culture, plus assist with progression planning, etc. Targeted head hunting of passive, often invisible candidates is carried out, plus selective advertising where required. Typical Time frame 12-24 weeks, depending on vacancy. Rebate period 3-6mths sliding scale.
We thought there was a gap! We worked hard on a complete offering which clients can pick and mix from or adopt the complete program with regular adjustments and reviews as required. We aim to deliver all of this at a very competitive price and a guarantee period of up to 6 months.
