Global Manufacturing Search

Search Methods

Below we have summarized some of the many search methods that we use to identify world-class talent across our target markets. These methods allow us to source talent from both existing & newly identified talent pools;

Competitor Mapping

We analyse and map out your key competitors to uncover organisational structures, top performing individuals and potential gaps. This gives you a clear view of where the best talent sits within rival businesses so you can target the right people with the right approach.

Market Mapping

“We don’t want anyone from our competitors, we want the best from the wider market.”
That’s a request we hear often. We map out talent in adjacent industries and world class brands like from other sectors, to help you bring in fresh thinking, not recycled CVs. Our insight lets you target new talent segments with precision.

Internal Database

With two decades of experience, we’ve built a rich proprietary database of high performing candidates across the manufacturing space.

Because we stay in regular contact, we’re often the first to know when top talent becomes open to a move long before they update their LinkedIn status.

We Keep in Touch

Staying close to the market means we’re always ready. We don’t just store CVs, we nurture relationships.

Our consultants consistently check in with candidates, ensuring we know who’s ready for a move, what’s changed in their goals and how we can align them with the right opportunity.

Passive Candidates

The best candidates aren’t scrolling job boards, they’re busy excelling in their current roles.

We specialise in identifying and engaging these passive professionals, creating compelling opportunities that speak directly to their motivations.

Referrals

The best people know the best people. We actively build and engage talent communities to generate high quality referrals.

These introductions come with trust, insight and a level of endorsement no algorithm can match, giving you access to people others simply can’t reach.
