How working with the Employment & Recruitment Service can benefit your business
Time saving
We can relieve you of some of the burden of recruiting new staff. Our screening, shortlisting, interview arrangements and offer management can save you significant amounts of time so you can focus on running your business while we look after the admin of getting your new recruits ready to work.
Cost Effective
Our competitive flat rates for advertising and the easy to use payroll service allow you to concentrate on running your business while we take the stress out of your recruitment.
Compliance with Immigration and Agency Worker Regulations 2010
We look after the legal side of getting your workers ready to start, and will advise you on any visa restrictions or other considerations you should make before engaging someone in a role.
Access the talent of Generation Z
Gen Z are the latest generation to join the workforce, and they're more digitally agile than ever before. They can infuse your business with creativity and innovation, and they are natural born technical problem solvers. By 2025, 75% of the world's workforce will be Millennials and Generation Z*, so let us help you unlock the vast potential they can offer your organisation.
