recruitment advertising From small mono insertions in local press to big creative campaigns that mix press, online media, websites, posters, mailers, events, outdoor and any other target-oriented media, we get the right message to the right audience at the right time, and at the right cost. Our approach is pragmatic, and may well win you an award.

online solutions are highly effective and cost efficient. Ours include campaign microsites, buttons, banners, Search Engine Marketing (Pay Per Click) and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), CV database mining, targeted emails or full blown bespoke websites including the latest applicant tracking and Candidate Management Systems.

employer branding We help develop and manage your reputation in the marketplace. Done properly, this isn’t about a simple change of look or message. It’s a research-led strategic exercise that creates widespread internal and external engagement with a set of credible and evidenced values. A well-constructed employer brand helps recruit and retain better applicants, improve hiring times and reduce costs per hire.

response management relieves you of the burden of handling the overwhelming response that can follow a recruitment campaign. Charges are flexible and start from £350.

We speed up your hiring process and leave candidates with the best possible impression of your recruitment procedures. This frees you to focus on priorities other than the time-consuming process of reviewing, managing and responding to applications.

We’re able to handle up to 80,000 applications a year for you. It’s something we’ve already done for Age UK, the London Borough of Lambeth, ACAS, British Council, the Olympic Delivery Authority and Westminster Abbey.

Working to strict SLAs, we provide dedicated phone lines and email addresses, acknowledge and log applications, collate and despatch application packs and produce an end-of-campaign database and MI on candidates. We also offer pre-screening, long-listing and Confidential Reply services. We can even arrange interviews and assessment centres for you.

employee communications Attracting people into your organisation is one thing, keeping them is another. We can help you do this through intranet and email communications, newletters, internal posters and leaflets, employee referral schemes, staff events, staff surveys, Flexible Benefit schemes, induction packs, videos, staff handbooks, training materials including video – anything that enables you to communicate better internally.

research Wise with our own money, we make a point of not being stupid with yours. By spending a sensible part of it on bespoke research, we can significantly improve your recruitment process. Research informs your recruitment strategies, helps build your employer brand, underpins specific projects and improves long-term cost effectiveness. We can test and interpret everything from creative concepts through to employee attitudes in areas such as graduate, diversity and equal opportunities recruitment. Tools include employee focus groups, prospect focus groups, telephone surveys, online questionnaires, exit interviews, message testing and web audits.

design and print We can do this on virtually anything, and your message doesn’t have to be a recruitment one. We can handle your entire corporate identity and branding, design and manage the building of your website and produce marketing materials like business cards, brochures, annual reports, short films, mailers, flyers, exhibition stands, balloons, t-shirts, pens – you name it.
