What we do
Our database of candidates is made up exclusively from blue chip retail companies sourced through obtaining complete organisational structure charts of all retailers from Executive Director Level through to Administrators.
The candidates we represent are not actively seeking new roles, applying to adverts, or with their details on CV banks. They are not the same candidates which our clients could find themselves. We approach the 90% of candidates who are performing well, highly motivated and impactful in their positions but nevertheless open to consultation about their next career move. This sets us apart from all other recruitment consultancies.
We have the most experienced and well-connected team in the retail industry, specialising in pro-active and targeted search to identify and approach the top talent, providing clients with the strongest performing individuals.
Our clients receive a personal service that is focused on quality, detail and the highest standards of engagement.
