Absolutely. While headhunting is often associated with large organisations, many SMEs use Precision Headhunting when recruiting for business critical roles or specialist positions where finding the right person is essential. It's about securing the right talent for your business, regardless of its size.

Many of our clients come to us after advertising hasn't attracted the right candidates. Precision Headhunting allows us to proactively approach talented professionals who aren't actively looking for a new role, significantly increasing the pool of potential candidates.

We carry out targeted market research, industry mapping and direct networking to identify individuals with the skills and experience you're looking for. We then approach them professionally and confidentially to understand whether they'd be open to discussing a new opportunity.

Not necessarily. If confidentiality is important, we can initially discuss the opportunity without revealing your company's identity. Once a candidate has expressed genuine interest and you've agreed, we'll introduce your business at the appropriate stage.

Yes. If you've identified an individual or even a competitor you'd like to recruit from, we can approach candidates professionally on your behalf. This protects your brand, maintains confidentiality and allows us to manage the conversation from the very first contact.

We believe in transparent pricing.

Our Precision Headhunting service is charged at a fixed 15% of the successful candidate's annual salary. We don't increase our percentage because the salary or seniority of the role increases, giving you complete clarity on costs from the outset.

Every assignment is different and depends on the role, industry and availability of suitable candidates. Before we begin, we'll agree realistic timescales and keep you updated throughout the search, including market feedback and candidate engagement.

Recruitment doesn't always go exactly to plan and, occasionally, circumstances change. If this happens, we'll work with you to agree the most appropriate next steps and continue supporting your search in line with the agreed terms of engagement.

Absolutely. Many businesses use Precision Headhunting to complement their existing recruitment or HR function. Your internal team continues to manage day to day recruitment while we focus on identifying, engaging and securing difficult to reach talent for your business.
