Silent Search Recruitment: Precision, Discretion & Commitment 

 

Through trusted relationships and meaningful industry connections, we identify and engage high-quality candidates before they enter the open job market. This proactive approach eliminates bidding wars and last-minute withdrawals, ensuring genuine commitment and alignment with your role. 

 

While we can advertise on job boards if required, approximately 90% of our assignments are conducted as confidential, silent searches.

 

Client Debrief & Candidate Engagement 

 

Our process begins with a comprehensive client briefing. Wherever possible, we visit your site or manufacturing facility to gain a deep understanding of your operations, leadership style, and company culture. 

 

Before launching a local, national, or global search, our marketing team develops tailored information packs and visual assets aligned with your brand, culture, and role requirements. 

 

Our research team then conducts detailed market mapping, building a targeted database of relevant industries, organisations, locations, and comparable roles. We leverage our network to obtain trusted referrals from senior leaders and experienced professionals within the industry.

 

Candidate Identification & Assessment 

 

We manage the full recruitment lifecycle on your behalf, including: 

• Confidential silent searches, supported by Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), prior to sharing sensitive information 

• Targeted pre-screening, enabling informed and discreet industry conversations 

• Salary insights and surveys, with compensation expectations validated multiple times and documented where required 

• In-depth interviews, conducted face-to-face or via video, assessing capability, cultural alignment, and development potential. Optional recorded interviews to support stakeholder engagement without delays 

• Shortlists are presented using a structured evaluation matrix, typically featuring three to five highly suitable candidates.

​

End-to-End Process Management 

​

We oversee every stage of the process to ensure a positive and professional experience for both clients and candidates, including:

• Coordination of client and candidate interviews 

• Management of psychometric assessments and medicals (where required) 

• Flexible, tailored reference checking aligned to your priorities 

• Salary negotiation and offer management, from verbal acceptance through to signed contracts and onboarding 

• Post-placement follow-up to ensure long-term success for all parties
