IT & office support

Our IT and office support network across the East Midlands is unmatched by our competitors. In fact, our leading recruitment specialist has been in the industry for almost 25 years, so it’s safe to say we know a few people.

Whilst the East Midlands is our bread and butter, we also have a dedicated London recruitment team who can facilitate your IT and office needs in the south.

Our team specialises in permanent and temporary recruitment across the following areas:

Complete confidence

As a trusted and collaborative partner, we take care of the end-to-end recruitment process so that our clients can concentrate on their day jobs with complete confidence. If there’s a way to make the hiring process even more convenient and effective for our clients, then we’ll do it. We’re always happy to go the extra mile. 

There isn’t a single candidate we’ll put forward for vacancies who we haven’t met and vetted ourselves, we even use identification verification software. Rest assured, our clients will always be provided with a shortlist of suitable candidates who have been specifically cherry-picked for their business.

Match-making skills

They say that you spend the majority of your life with the people you work with, consequently, we understand the importance of not just a great job, but a great job within a fantastic company. This is why we take the time to understand all of our candidates’ career aspirations as well as their personality type. 

We strive to understand what our candidates are looking for as well as what they can already do. We believe this is our true USP and helps to ensure that our match-making skills are accurate for both applicants and businesses.
