Working For Us
We have strong growth ambitions for bpesearch and we are very interested in hearing from like-minded executive search professionals with complementary expertise looking for a move away from the traditional, large scale recruitment organisations.
Our business is best suited to self-motivated individuals with a strong team ethic, a passion for delivering high-quality resourcing solutions, creating new client relationships and nurturing existing ones. When we take on an assignment, we intend to see it through and we maintain committed with dogged determination until the successful candidate is found and on-boarded. We also share a common passion for candidate relationships, face to face meetings, openness and honesty. If we can’t help people, we will say so and try to offer an alternative point of contact.
We strive to be faithful to our four values;
We’re genuine. Relationships matter to us. Long-term relationships are the foundation of our business. We care about the people we work with and the partnerships we build.
We’re experts. Our knowledge and network add value to every conversation. Our in-depth industry and market knowledge helps our clients shape the future of their business and our candidates reach their potential.
We’re collaborative. As a true partner, we understand the need for flexibility. Every client or candidate is unique. Our way of working enables us to provide a bespoke approach – developing a time frame and process that suits you. And our natural curiosity means we’ll always seek out the most creative solutions.
We’re tenacious. We are committed to completing our assignment, no matter how challenging. We have high standards and a determination to go above and beyond, always aiming to deliver on the toughest of briefs. We like to challenge and are happy to be challenged ourselves.
