  • Campaign Management - Large, timely intakes of permanent staff across many disciplines and sectors
  • Site and location specific recruitment - whilst many of our clients are based within a 50 mile radius of our branch network, we work with a number of national clients. Indeed, some of our best client relationships began when they were not getting the level of service required from local recruitment businesses and they called in Key Personnel - despite us not having local branches. Our teams know how to find the right candidates, wherever the location.
  • Competency Based Screening and Assessments
  • Other areas can include Consultancy, Screening and Assessment, Response Handling

An emerging need is for clients to consider Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and if you would like to consider Key Personnel Group's RPO services, please contact us at staffingsolutions@key-personnel.co.uk.

Interim senior / Highly skilled staff

Companies need to constantly consider a range of strategic, operational and tactical business factors and from time to time a specific need or requirement will emerge that will require the input or leadership of a highly skilled and experienced individual.

The need may be strategic, emergency, contingency, short term / long term, planned or unplanned and the organisation may simply not have this resource or knowledge internally within the current staffing structure of the business. At this point, the appointment of an Interim Professional is considered the best solution.

Interim Professionals vary greatly in terms of sector knowledge, expertise and can offer immediate and lasting impact to your business or project. Interim candidates are usually highly skilled individuals with a track record of delivery whether in previous permanent positions or interim assignments.
