Why hire a contractor…

Additional Expertise

Contractors give you the chance to find a skill set you don’t have in house or one that’s needed for a single project.

Being able to scale up flexibly and add skills and knowledge to your team on a case-by-case basis allows projects to be delivered effectively and on time.

Flexibility

Contractors are used to being flexible, accommodating and ready to start a project at short notice.

Head count

Haven’t got sign off for a perm hire? A contractor could help…

We’ll work to your budget, filling the gap whilst you wait for that all important perm hire sign off.

Staff retention

If your new perm hire has a 3 month notice period, who is getting the work done before they start?

A contractor ensures your new perm hire doesn’t start with a big bottleneck of work leading to a smooth onboarding process and retention.

“Test drive” candidates

Temp to perm is a very attractive option for many clients as they get to experience a candidate’s way of working. Not only this, the candidate can experience the company’s culture and their ‘fit.

This ultimately allows both parties to start the perm process 100% sure and committed.

We understand that every business is different and that your hiring needs and plans change, so our services adapt too; enabling you to save money, time and hire better people, faster.
