The difference between an Executive Recruitment Company and a Recruitment Agency - Dudley Child Executive Recruitment

The role of a recruitment consultant within an agency is typically made up of database searching and advertising in order to identify and attract the right individuals. There is minimal research involved in the process and all avenues are not considered.

Executive Search Consultants will take a slightly different approach to the recruitment process, ensuring that all avenues are covered and that the client is supplied with the best person on the market for that position at that time. In order to ensure that the entire market is covered in the identification and selection of candidates there are a number of different process that are undertaken depending on the assignment and commitment from the individual clients.

A full Search and Selection campaign is the most comprehensive method of recruiting any position. It is best utilised for senior and board level appointments or when the talent pool is in short supply, e.g. highly technical requirements. This campaign ensures that no stone is left unturned and that every possible avenue is explored. The timescales involved are typically longer due to the volume and nature of the methodologies employed, it does however provide the most transparent and effective approach. We recommend a full search campaign when time and circumstance permit; there is an initial financial commitment with a full search campaign.

Dudley Child Ltd is a quality focussed recruitment business. We have the capability to manage exclusive, retained single search campaigns at an executive level internationally. With the right commitment from our clients we can ensure that they are provided with a service that can only be described as excellent and the best candidates for that role.
