for clients
Every business is different - which is why our approach is different too.
We take the time to understand your business, your people and what you're looking to achieve, offering a personal, flexible approach to finding the right individuals.
For us, recruitment is about more than filling a vacancy. It's about building lasting relationships and making appointments that work for both the business and the individual.
We offer three approaches to recruitment, depending on the nature, seniority and requirements of the role.
CONTINGENCY SEARCH
Flexible & efficient
A flexible and efficient approach to recruitment, drawing on our established professional network alongside a wider search of the active candidate market. Contingency search is particularly suited to straightforward appointments and roles where timing is a priority, providing access to relevant, experienced candidates without an upfront commitment.
EXCLUSIVE SEARCH
Discreet & focused
Working exclusively with Stanford Recruitment Partners allows us to take a more focused and coordinated approach to your recruitment needs. As your sole recruitment partner for the assignment, we manage the search and candidate engagement carefully, ensuring a consistent message in the market and a more considered experience for everyone involved. This approach is particularly valuable for sensitive or specialist appointments where discretion and consistency are important.
Comprehensive & specialist
RETAINED SEARCH & SELECTION
A comprehensive, research-led approach designed for senior, specialist or business-critical appointments. Working in close partnership with you, we undertake a thorough search of the market, identifying and approaching suitable professionals, including those who may not be actively considering a move. We manage the process from initial briefing through to appointment, including candidate research, interviews, assessment and the presentation of a carefully selected shortlist. A retained fee structure allows us to dedicate the time and resources needed to conduct a detailed and considered search.
