Why Employers Choose to Work with Us

We put your business first

Your business depends on hiring the right people at the right time, and it’s our business to make sure you can. 

Why should employers work with us?  We will work hard to keep your business.  We provide recruitment services designed for long-term recruitment partnerships.

Retained Search

Our most requested service is for specific vacancies, not always high value but often highly valued experienced hires, perhaps specialist experts in their field or business area leads.  To retain Melbury Search is to gain a priority status and access talent we find exclusively for you.

Contingency Recruitment

We keep a straightforward contingency recruitment agreement in place with Employers, which gives us the opportunity to not only make appropriate candidate introductions from time to time but also develop our understanding of your business over time.

Outsourced Partner

We can bring professional recruitment expertise, technology, process, and strong market understanding to your business on an interim or longer-term basis.  Working closely with existing HR and leadership teams, Melbury Search will deliver high quality talent cost-effectively.

Designed to Fit

If you have a project in mind that needs a slightly different approach, then we’re all ears!  We will be very happy to work out a tailored solution with you.  That might include customised job searches, automated postings, analytics, applicant tracking, bespoke pricing, candidate attraction campaigns, onsite presence, an expanded selection process, workforce planning, talent pooling, training, and much more to help you stay ahead in the market.
