CLIENTS & TESTIMONIALS
Here at Glocomms we pride ourselves on our one to one relationship with our trusted technology partners.
Our pledge is to bring access to candidate pools, previously inaccessible to our clients. The vast majority of our
relationships are on an exclusive basis; this allows us to focus on the high level quality of our candidates, who are
fully qualified and reference checked. Working exclusively allows us to bring the most value to your business.
Our main focus is on clients in the following three areas:
a. Systems Integrators
For our System Integration clients, we understand the reactive nature to their business. We aim to complete
shortlists, within a few hours of receiving the requirement. In most cases, multiple consultants will service our
integrator projects to ensure a prompt delivery.
“I have had the opportunity to work with Matt who supported specific client needs with skills and resources. Whilst some
challenges were thrown at him by the changing business requirements he was able to quickly adapt and deliver, meeting my
expectations. He was also making a point to communicate effectively and efficiently. I would recommend Matt's work to
anyone having resourcing needs and would happily work with him again.”

b. Telecoms Operators
We work with Mobile Network Operators across Europe, most predominantly within the Integrations arms of
their businesses. We understand the need for ever changing technological skill-sets and the constant need for
technical advancement.
“I had the opportunity of successfully collaborating with Matthew for contracts in Ireland and Switzerland. I believe
Matthew is one of the best Heads of Recruitment in the telecom sector I have ever worked with. His professionalism and
commitment to obtaining a favorable outcome are nothing short of exceptional. He was always able to successfully bridge
the gap between his candidate and the companies with which he collaborates and consistently met the expectations of
both sides.”

c. Enterprise Clients
Our enterprise clients can be wide ranging from Governmental Institutions, Financial Institutions, Automotive
Companies and Luxury Goods brands. As Glocomms are focused on skill-sets rather than industries, our
candidates can be used in many different sectors.
“I have recently been working closely with Robert in recruiting a specialist freelancer role with very specific requirements.
From the very beginning I found Robert to be professional, helpful, honest and consistently delivered very high quality
applicants, one of which we decided to bring on-board. I wouldn't hesitate in highly recommending Robert and look
forward to working with him again in future.”
Head of Service Delivery (client) - Private Software Company
WHY WORK WITH GLOCOMMS?
1. Glocomms has dedicated Consultants assigned to specific technical markets. For example, in
Europe we have 11 consultants devoted to Big Data Architects & Developers. This niche focus
allows us to be faster and more accurate than our competition.
2. Multiple coverage in similar markets. You can use the Glocomms team for Permanent and
Contract requests.
3. We have a full time back-office for Payroll and Compliance based in London. We have recently
implemented an automated online timesheets approval process for both our clients and
candidates called InTime.
4. We have full access to the resources of Phaidon International; including job boards, the
marketing and back office team, and the reputation of the multinational group. This allows us to
utilise the benefits from being both a specialist boutique and an international market leader.
CANDIDATE QUALIFICATION
We aim to save our clients time during the recruitment process, by only working with top candidates.
We undertake the following steps before sending you a candidate:
1. Obtain CV and validate experience and any gaps in the CV.
2. The vast majority of candidates that we work with are direct referrals from other tried and
tested sources. Good people know good people.
3. Where possible we interview the candidate face to face to better understand the candidate,
their motivations and their technical suitability for our projects.
4. Undertake competency based questions to understand their experience and reason for
leaving/availability, what they are looking for, previous project details, rates and expectations.
5. We undertake the relevant verification of documents – copies of passport, limited company
details, certification of incorporation etc. This ensures that a compliant solution is possible
before the candidate is submitted to the client.
6. Take a copy of their active certifications, where possible.
7. We also take technical references and when going through the offer management stage we
look to attain copies of business references.
COMPLIANT SOLUTIONS
Glocomms will only operate in markets that we have a fully approved payroll solution by
Phaidon International’s experienced Compliance Director, Gail Brown.
We understand the importance of taking local legislation and regulations into account when
placing in multiple countries around the world.
All Glocomms’ candidates will have the correct permit and insurances in the country in which
they are working. We engage with in-country partners for the vast majority of our Contractor
Pay roll for Employed or Self-Employed Solutions.
As of 2015, we are able to payroll candidates ourselves in Switzerland through our office in
Zurich.
