Permanent Recruitment
Direct hires
Interim and Fractional Talent
At Wavecrest Talent, we believe in a zero compromise approach to delivering permanent hires. Because we recognise that the consequence of making the wrong hires can be costly. That’s why our solutions are designed to give you confidence, control and measurable value from every hire. We combine decades of experience with the latest technology and tools to deliver exceptional results in 3 custom delivery models that are designed around your business, not ours.
The Wavecrest Approach
When you partner with us for Permanent Search you will benefit from –
A truly collaborative partnership: Every organisation is different. We take time to understand your unique context, culture, and objectives before shaping the right solution. By listening, we design searches that are tailored to your business, not ours.
Proactive headhunting: We map the market, engage directly, and secure candidates who are not actively looking.
Deep sector expertise: Every search is delivered by experienced recruiters with decades of knowledge in our specialist markets.
Credible representation: We are trusted ambassadors for your brand, opening doors into candidate networks that only engage when approached by a credible partner.
Evidence-led shortlists: We do not just share CVs. Every candidate is assessed for cultural alignment, growth potential, alongside their experience and technical expertise.
Flexible & transparent pricing
Our Permanent Search Solutions
We do not compromise on service level, but we do offer three solutions that are built around your needs:
Placement Service
Best for non-critical hires that are not time-sensitive. A contingent model (no hire, no fee) with flexible fee levels.
👉 View Pricing, Terms and Conditions
Retained Search
Best for critical, hard-to-fill, or confidential roles. A retained model that secures guaranteed delivery and results on a clear timeline.
👉 View Pricing, Terms and Conditions
Placement Partnership
Best for clients seeking the most flexible and cost-effective solution offering maximum value for money. This model eliminates the placement fee entirely and is custom-built to deliver the best overall value, delivery, and guarantees. Placement aftercare, extended guarantees, and a genuine partnership approach are all included, with the focus firmly on your long-term success and P&L satisfaction.
Why Clients Trust Us
All of our search activity is led by seasoned recruitment experts with deep networks in our specialist markets. Clients partner with us because we represent their brands with credibility, professionalism, and discretion. That credibility matters, because it is what allows us to tap into candidate networks, build trust, and engage with professionals who are not openly looking for roles.
