Retained Search
This search method is appropriate for the recruitment of senior executives or broad recruitment projects where the need for additional staff within a particular niche area has been identified, but the hiring institution is also keen to receive a detailed overview of that market. Our team will provide a market mapping of the specific area chosen, outlining the key staff within the most influential desks in the space & consulting the client on each individual identified, as well as providing market intelligence on recent events around each desk and the market as a whole. Due to the additional research time and higher qualities and quantities of information generated, the firm is paid a proportion of the fee up-front and the remainder of the fee upon completion of the hire. This service is best used to gain information on a competing firms business, or for the recruitment of very senior individuals, as oppose to mid level or junior recruitment projects.
