Specialist recruitment · Manchester & London
The right hire.
The right move.
Specialist recruiters for permanent and contract roles. Salaries shown on every job, and one named consultant from first call to final offer.

“They told me the salary band on the first call. Nobody else did.”
Hannah Wright
“I had a named person the whole way through, not a different recruiter every week.”
Marcus Bell
“They talked me out of a role that wasn’t right. That’s why I came back.”
Sophie Lin
“Three CVs, two interviews, one hire. That was the whole process.”
Graham Doyle
“They understood the brief better than we’d written it.”
Aisha Rahman

Where recruitment usually goes wrong
“Competitive salary”
Hidden salaries waste everyone’s time. We publish a band on every role, and tell you why when we can’t.
A different recruiter every week
One named consultant runs your search from the first call to the final offer. No handovers.
CVs sent before anyone read them
Every shortlisted person has been met, tested and referenced. Three good CVs beat thirty.
Open roles
Real roles. Real salaries.
