Work With Us

The key elements of our incentive scheme operate as follows:

• A market leading, transparent personal bonus scheme based on directly attributed fee revenue, calculated quarterly based on contracts signed and paid monthly based on collections. There are no penalties for late client payments. 
• Additional quarterly bonuses paid based on achieving grade based target thresholds for Associate Consultants through to Managers.
• Quarterly events for both individual high achievers and overall company performance.
• Annual cash or incentive trip reward based on achieving an annual grade based target (as opposed to a single target for all levels).
• Management override for those with leadership responsibilities ensuring financial reward for team performance. 
• Decreasing % of salary cost allocation to personal bonus threshold as leadership responsibilities increase.
• Generous internal referral scheme for introducing talent to the business. 
• Access to a loyalty platform offering discounts on a range of products and services.

We have a track record of experienced recruiters joining us from both larger and smaller firms who earn more (due to an exceptional scheme) and generate record levels of revenue (due to the platform and culture). In 2018 we surveyed our staff who joined us with at least 1 year of previous industry experience and who had worked for us for at least 12 months - over 80% of them had both billed the same or more (on average over 40% more) and earned more (on average more than a 60% increase in net earnings). 

In 2023 we repeated the survey which showed that, based on the same criteria, 92% had earned the same or more with an average of a 54% increase in billing. That 92% had all earned more with an average increase of 43% in net earnings.

We have a defined approach to leadership as a skill in its own right. Our leaders are all highly knowledgeable in their own industry sector or function as well as in recruitment and executive search, so they are ideally placed to help both clients and candidates achieve their objectives.

Our leaders are the front line of our business as direct revenue generators and not hidden away in offices or behind spreadsheets, so they intrinsically know what makes great recruiters and how to develop them. . 

We have always believed that a person's revenue record is only half of what makes a good manager. We look for leaders who are balanced, supportive and inspiring and those who walk our values consistently.
