4. 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 talentedindividuals 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 professionaland confidentialapproach to make
them realise the potential openings that an alternative employer could provide.
We pride ourselveson 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 developtheir
current skill set, enabling them to further their career. Effective training & development should lead
solely from the identification of your future goalsand objectives.
Solution are keen to work in partnershipwith you by developing the talent of your people so
each and everyone can contribute to the successof your organisation.
Developyour business by developing your people...
