SOAPBOX MISSION

Purple Squirrel your Recruitment Partner

Experienced Engineering Professionals – 
Fully Understanding Your Requirements

The team at Purple Squirrel consists of Consultants with a background in the sectors we specialise in, and it was founded by an accomplished leader in the engineering field, from a corporate OEM or Tier 1 major player. To us this is a fundamental principle and what makes this business different from most other recruitment agencies. With our industry knowledge we are able to understand our client’s vacancy requirements, and in turn we are well positioned to identify the best candidates.

This experience and industry insight shapes our relationships with candidates and clients because we genuinely understand the work ethic and daily pressures.

Working in Partnership
Many recruitment agencies have business processes such as sales targets, and as a result the quality of service can be affected. Not here at Purple Squirrel – we work in partnership with our clients to find the right person for the job. We have a consultative approach rather than a KPI driven culture, which enables us to work with clients on a long-term basis.

Candidate Attraction & Selection
Our systems offer full candidate search facilities and vacancy management, so we can find the ideal match for our client’s vacancies. We also use industry-specific advertising and networking to attract the best candidates in the market.

Purple Squirrel Payroll
Our payroll service partners enable us to process a high volume of temporary workers and contractors efficiently and reliably as PAYE or Limited Companies. This allows us to focus on our core business activity of recruitment.

High Standards
Purple Squirrel is a member of the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC), assuring you of a high standard of excellence and a Code of Practice which we adhere to.

Adding Value to your Search & Selection
We therefore believe that we will add value to your search and selection activity because throughout the process we will have partnered with you:

In truly understanding and defining your needs
In knowing where and how to source your ideal candidates
In profiling your vacancy and company as an employer of choice to target candidates
In pre-screening your candidates
In supporting your selection decisions
In remaining in good contact to be part of your next recruitment cycle

Ultimately we want to use our technical expertise to save you valuable time and money by quickly finding your Purple Squirrel candidates.

So, if you are in need of a Purple Squirrel, why not give us a try?
