The sector determines the sourcing lens and the interview cadence. The workflow stays consistent across every mandate: a written brief, a considered search, a ranked shortlist and end-to-end offer support. Same consultant from intake through onboarding follow-up.
We arrive at the brief call ready. We already know the sector, the operating environment, the comp bands and the passive-market context. Your intake time is spent on your plant, not our education.
We approach the network and the active market discreetly. Client identity is withheld until you give express permission. Approaches to a candidate’s current employer are coordinated with you before we make them.
Three to five candidates per role, properly vetted, with written notes on each. Right-to-work, references and current comp confirmed before introduction. We rank the shortlist and explain our ranking. We do not just send a stack of CVs.
We coordinate the interview process, manage feedback, structure the offer, handle counter-offer conversations, and confirm start-date and relocation logistics. Follow-up check-ins at day 30 and day 90.
Roles that are not industrial or manufacturing. If you ask us for a marketing director or a software engineer for a SaaS product, we will refer you out with pleasure. Depth of focus in industrial is what makes our shortlists arrive faster and better matched than a generalist desk can manage.
