Many people have preconceptions about what to expect from a recruitment consultancy, some from experience, others from hearsay.
From the day we were founded over 15 years ago, we have sought to break the mould, to establish trust with whomever we touch and to provide substance not spin in a market where spin is the norm.
That makes our values very important to us and we are unashamedly values led:
- Integrity has to be a constant, not something that fits the moment. So we are completely transparent in the way we do business and our records and systems are open for inspection at any time.
- Respect for the Individual has to be a constant. So how we behave with our clients, our candidates and our colleagues must stand up to scrutiny. We facilitate and support people in their decision making, rather than pressurise them. In 15 years we have never knowingly ducked a call. You probably know the feeling ...
- Passion for Recruitment, professionally carried out. We think our statistics speak for themselves; delivery of results to order representing excellent ROI for clients and long term relationships with both clients and candidates.
- Informality allows us to go beyond the obvious. In order to assess culture fit, we need to understand our clients and then with our candidates be able to get beyond experience and competence to understand the whole person; values, attitude, behaviour, motivation, potential. "Knowing" people is not a formal process.
- Teamwork lies at the heart of greatness. Whomever you speak to at Consult allows you access to the entirety of our personal and corporate knowledge and experience. Confidences are respected, all else is shared.
We do not aspire to these values; we live them. They allow us to aspire to working in true Partnership with our clients and candidates.
