Headhunting

Collingwood IS NOT a Database Recruitment Agency.

Instead we add value as proactive Headhunters who have over 21 years' experience recruiting Specialist and Senior Management roles to Board Level across Sales, Marketing, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Engineering, Research and Development, Human Resources and General Management.

We partner organisations ranging from start-ups to global blue chips to Headhunt High Calibre Individuals for their recruitment projects throughout the UK and, to date, in 13 other countries in Europe, Middle East and Asia.

As Headhunters we have developed a reputation for finding "needles in haystacks".

Headhunting for Collingwood takes us through a process of getting to know our clients, their culture, business strategy and exactly what they need in terms of candidate skills, experiences and behaviour before undertaking a thorough search into a number of specified industry sectors, including competitor organisations, to identify candidates that meet all the required criteria.

Our key objective is to present a candidate shortlist of individuals who have the skills to do the job and the behaviours to fit culturally. To assess this, our Headhunters undertake face to face competency based interviews with all longlisted candidates and support these with market leading behaviour profiling and aptitude testing.This ensures candidates have the skills to excel, will fit culturally and increases the likelihood of their success in the first year by 88%.

Many of our clients have stayed with Collingwood for over 10 years which, we believe, is the ultimate endorsement to a consultancy that delivers our clients' needs time and time again.

Key points about Collingwood:

• Every assignment is started from scratch. We undertake in-depth research for your role, therefore, ensuring we identify the highest calibre candidates working today.

• We deliver our candidate shortlists usually inside 5 weeks.

• The Collingwood Consultant you meet and brief is the one who will deliver the assignment. We do not pass our assignments on to Junior Consultants resulting in your requirement being lost in translation.

• Communication between us is critical. We will keep you updated about the progress we are making as often as you choose.

• We have a reputation for "finding needles in haystacks" and so have a solid track record of success even with the most difficult assignment briefs.
