• Work from home office - virtual environment
  
• Masterclass and Trusted Advisor approach to recruitment methodology
  
• Opportunity to reset how recruitment will operate in new environment
  

Background

As innovators and pioneers of the virtual recruitment model, we have always done things differently. We are very aware that the recruitment landscape has changed forever, and intend to be proactive with the new opportunities that this presents

Our expertise and success have spanned many decades through similar economic environments to the one that we are currently facing.  Innovation has seen us reverse industry trends, and experienced growth during difficult times when the rest of the recruitment sector has faced contraction.

Our "virtual or remote based" model, our focus and long term experience in contracting, aligned with the unparalleled sector experience of our Associates, means that the next few years present an unprecedented opportunity.

It is quite clear that “talent conversations” going forward will need an entirely different “language”. We believe that recruitment’s “new normal” will be a constant and adaptable change of resource, and what we offer clients will have to align with this.  This is something we can respond to.

The Opportunity

In line with this, we are seeking Expressions of Interest from recruitment sector professionals to present services we believe will assist clients to engage the skills they need to move forward in this new economic environment.

Criteria

There are proven criteria we need for success in our environment, so you’ll need the following:

• Have your own home office
  
• Be financially resilient
• Possess a minimum of 10 years’ (preferably more) experience in recruitment, or bring specific sector experience
  
• Have experience across all aspects of recruitment – permanent, contracting, etc.
  
• Have operated at a professional and executive level
• Be experienced in the end-to-end process of recruitment, right from BD through to fulfillment
  
• Bring value with strong connections and networks
• Be entirely self-motivated and be a self-starter
  
• Be comfortable working the hours you need – full or part-time
• Be a “mature” operator who can identify with all working generations

Attributes

Amongst the personal attributes, you’ll need are the following:

• Strong ethics and professional integrity, transparency, accountability, and reliability
• Ability to conceptualise and problem-solve, with a consistent and structured approach
• Have a flexible and adaptable approach to resourcing solutions
• Possess exceptional communication and relationship management skills
• Be able to influence resourcing decision-making with sound commercial advice
• Not be afraid to challenge convention
• Have broad commercial skills applicable to both the public and private sectors

Action

We are seeking genuine enquiries from experienced recruiters who may either be operating on their own and perhaps feel an “association” may be the best way forward, or perhaps those within larger operators who may be struggling with the demands imposed and the uncertainty of today’s recruitment climate.

During the GFC, talentnow! grew year on year, and we believe this experience is a strong foundation that will allow us to do something similar in the environment we are currently facing.

If any aspect of this opportunity has aroused your interest, then please call in confidence to Kevin Chappell, Principal Director, 0295-974739, or Amanda Scott Consulting Director, 021-784483 for more details.
