| Purple Squirrel your Recruitment Partner The Best recruitment agency is not always the Biggest. Often, the newest and most tenacious will secure the results simply because we are passionate about your hiring needs. Our recruiters at Purple Squirrel are backed by the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, assuring you of a high standards of excellence and Ethics, an increasingly rare ideology. Experienced Engineering Professionals - not TeleSales Recruiting Each of our department leaders was previously an accomplished leader in your field, from a corporate OEM or Tier 1 major player. To us this is a fundamental founding principle and what makes this business different from most other recruitment agencies. It is as close as you can achieve to your Hiring Manager sitting down and doing the search and selection activity themself, although they obviously don't have that luxury of time! This experience and industrial insight shapes our approaches to candidates and in our relationship with you the client because we genuinely understand your work ethic, and daily pressures. Ultimately this makes us more successful. Our philosophy is that you can take a solid engineering and managerial background and provide training in the recruitment business processes. Other companies operate more like a Tele-sales company hiring recent or generic graduates with only recruiting in their blood-stream. Sure over time they learn to speak the language of engineering keywords but they will never truly understand your requirements from an insider's viewpoint. They also have business processes guaranteed to annoy you – like sales targets for number of CV’s sent irrespective of the quality of the candidate. Not here in Purple Squirrel. Lean IT Processes We have built the business from the outset with lean IT processes so that we can focus our efforts on finding you excellent candidates. Like the website. It has full functionality so that you as a Hiring Manager can have your own account and even post and manage your own vacancies. We are also integrated with Broadbean. Our website is built for successful Search Engine hits. Our core business is finding experienced candidates for your post-graduate skilled engineering and technical roles. We will host your vacancy advert increasing your chances of finding your target candidate. In the event a successful candidate is found by our team through this site you agree to pay an introduction fee in accordance with our terms and conditions. When you first register we will agree reasonable terms. FREE Job Advertising for Employers (unskilled/semi-skilled roles) We don't want to ignore your hiring requirements in the other areas of your business. By creating a user account you can upload ALL of your vacancies for FREE (eg machine operators, admin, warehouse, drivers etc) any CV's received will be passed directly (unscreened for suitability) to you and no fee will become charged. We can even assist you with your payroll for these people on PAYE contracts. Purple Squirrel Payroll We have partnered for payroll with a company having 15years of experience in this area. This enables us to process a high volume of Ltd Co and PAYE contractors efficiently and reliably while focussing on our core business activity which is your engineering recruitment. Specialist Candidate Attraction Naturally, we have subscriptions with the main and niche candidate databases and advertisers and we are increasing our presence in networking events. However because our recruiters understand the target candidates in a special way from our own industry experience, we are able to deploy targetted headhunting methods to secure you the talent you require. Adding Value to your Search & Selection We therefore believe that we will add value to your search and selection activity because all through the process we will have truly understood and partnered with you:  In truly understanding and defining your needs In knowing where and how to source your ideal candidates In selling your job and you 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 cycleUltimately we want to use our technical expertise to save you valuable time and money to quickly find you your Purple Squirrel candidates.
