Permanent Recruitment Explained

We're primarily a permanent recruitment specialist meaning we focus on job opportunities that involve placing individuals with organisations in a full time, permanent role. We work with companies to assist in creating job descriptions, job adverts and provide general industry and job specific advice before sourcing candidates through various means. We pre-screen candidates before sending CV's and facilitate the interview process by arranging and managing the interviews. If we're successful in placing a candidate with a company we charge a pre agreed fee based on a percentage of the agreed salary offered by the company to the candidate. If you're a company who has hired through us, you will also have an agreed rebate in place over a certain period which will provide a partial refund should the placement not work out.

For certain, specific recruitment projects we may recommend a retained option. This involves a partial, upfront payment in order to begin the search and a final payment upon placement of a candidate.  

To find out more about our fee and rebate structure please get in touch by emailing jobs@alexanderjamesrecruiting.co.uk and one of our team will be in touch or click 'contact us' below.

Dillen Hagan

Project Sales Manager - Quickline Storage

Candidate

I left my previous role and within a few days a consultant at Alexander James Recruiting had found that I was looking for work on LinkedIn and contacted me. They had several vacancies to offer and after sending my CV they had me an interview within hours. They kept me well informed of progress and landed a second interview and consequently got a start date . They were a pleasure to deal with and managed the whole process until my start date by keeping in touch regarding my employment.

Used Truck Sales Manager - Linde Material Handling

Candidate

Alexander James Recruiting contacted me around 6 months ago after seeing my CV online. They had a job in mind that fit my profile but didn’t jump to conclusions. They listened carefully to what I wanted from my career and asked many questions going to great lengths to understand me. I liked and respected this. This caring approach built a strong bond between us with trust being at the centre of it. They are real professionals in this field. They have a positive, helpful attitude that makes you feel at ease, which when looking for that next career move can be so reassuring. His personality is another one of his many qualities. I’d recommend Alexander James Recruiting to find you that perfect role.

"Working with Jordan and Alexander James Recruiting was a real pleasure, he was there at every stage of the process and found me a role that matched my needs and requirements, in, what appeared to be, a seamless and professional manner. I was kept up to date the whole way through and Jordan was always available to speak to even on days when I knew he was on annual leave. I thank Jordan for all of his help and although I would love to say I will use him again, I know I won’t have to as he found me a job that I love and I will be staying here for a long time to come."
