“Alerting you to the top talent in the market before they become available to your competition”

paula hendrickBriscoe Search & Consulting has become synonymous with sourcing the best talent for our clients by using non-traditional approaches to recruitment, particularly targeted search to unearth “passive candidate” (i.e. individuals who are not actively job hunting) into a process of selection.

Now, we have decided to take this approach and almost “reverse engineer” it – i.e. build a talent pool of passive candidates who are not willing to promote their wares around town amongst the transactional recruitment agents, but are keen to be partnered with 1 consultancy in identifying top career opportunities for the

Paula Hendrick, Head of Briscoe Candidate Partnering, says the reaction to our new model has been phenomenal. “We expected this approach to be of interest to the market’s top-performers, but the response to it has been incredible. We already have a fantastic selection of professionals who are not “active” in the job market but have solid backgrounds, track records and in-demand skill sets. It seems lots of candidates are tired of the shotgun approach taken by the classic recruitment agency”.

Our intention is to ONLY represent the “A Grade” candidates in a marketplace and our areas of focus include Project Management, Engineering, Technical and Leadership professionals. Each candidate is thoroughly reference checked and interviewed before we converse with our clients about their skills. We have designed a comprehensive partnering and rewards package for our candidates, thus ensuring a quality, relationship focus. However, once we place them with a client, it’s hands-off from there on.

“Just like any top talent in any walk of life such as sport, entertainment, etc. the top talent has a sole, high quality partner to forge out opportunities for them”, explains Paula. “It seems the high-quality career hunters are no different”.
