Rise Executive Search & Recruitment Ltd

About the Company

Rise Executive Search & Recruitment Ltd is focussed on providing recruitment solutions of sales, technical and executive staff to the technical sector and mainly Electrical and Electronic related roles. These include component and systems sales, Industrial and general Electrical, Automation, Process Control, Instrumentation and more. I formed this consultancy because I highlighted a gap in the engineering market for a specialist technical recruiter. We recognise that both clients and candidates want to deal with consultants that fully understand their requirements. Growing from strength to strength we form ongoing relationships with our Clients becoming their first choice for recruitment. Our service and high standard of delivery remains the same whilst our client and candidate base continues to grow. Successful recruiting is crucial to both the current needs and future development of your company, but selecting people with the highest potential to succeed is a challenging and time consuming task. Academic achievement, previous experience and key career achievements are all considered in our screening process. We can consider your culture or how you may wish to influence your team when selecting suitable candidates. Finding the most successful people - those who will strive to exceed both their individual and organisational objectives, meet the demands of the job and who will demonstrate good potential for development. By outsourcing your recruitment needs to a professional and specialist organisation, you will gain the additional benefit of removing the administrative burden from your company, leaving you free to concentrate on your core objectives. Each recruitment brief is unique and specific to the needs of our client, be it for one-off roles or high volume recruitment.
