At Solution we enjoy the industry we work in and have an unrivalled passion for success at all

levels. We promote this from within and bring this positivity to our clients when working with

them on business critical assignments.

Our enthusiastic approach has enabled us to build long term relationships with clients

allowing us to understand how your business works and how Solution can work with and for you.

Solution is proud to differentiate itself from its competitors by offering a range of services

including contingency recruitment, executive search and bespoke training & development

programmes.

Solution understand it’s a people business...

All of our specialist sectors are focused on offering you a tailored solution to both your

permanent and professional freelance needs. Solution believes relationships are built through

transparency and communication; we take time to understand the profile and

culture of your business.

Our candidate network, strong market knowledge, high profile dedicated advertising

campaigns (including joint advertising) and continually evolving website offers you the benefit

of access to unique high calibre technical and professional candidates.

All candidates are subject to our rigorous screening programme to ensure their skills,

experience and personality is right to complement your business both in the short and long term.

why solution? recruitment

Due to the ever increasing skill shortfall within the built environment a number of our clients are

‘retaining’ our services to partner them in headhunting talented individuals for business critical

positions.

There are significant advantages to using a retained headhunting service. Whereas the industry

norm relies heavily on databases, the Solution retained service is a purely research based process.

We find that the most talented individuals do not always have enough time to seek alternative

employment and it may well take a professional and confidential approach to make

them realise the potential openings that an alternative employer could provide.

We pride ourselves on our results and continue to develop long term relationships based on

this thorough and highly successful method of recruitment.

We recognise that of all the resources that you have as a business, the only one that offers you a

genuine opportunity to transform productivity and profitability is people.

Solution believes that its important employers recognise that people seek to develop their

current skill set, enabling them to further their career. Effective training & development should lead

solely from the identification of your future goals and objectives.

Solution are keen to work in partnership with you by developing the talent of your people so

each and everyone can contribute to the success of your organisation.

Develop your business by developing your people...
