For candidates
The role should
make sense before
you make the move.
A permanent move deserves a full picture. Axiom discusses what a role actually involves — and whether it fits your direction — before anything is shared with an employer.

01 What a conversation covers
The things that
actually matter.
A job title and salary are rarely enough to decide on a move. These are the areas Axiom aims to make clear.
- 01Direction
Career direction
Where you want your career to go, and whether a role moves you toward it.
- 02Context
Role context
What the role is for, what it delivers, who it works with and how success is likely to be judged.
- 03Opportunity
Employer opportunity
What the organisation offers — environment, team, development and the reasons the role exists.
- 04Location
Location
Where the work is based and what the travel or commute realistically looks like.
- 05Working model
Working arrangements
On-site, hybrid or remote expectations, hours and any shift, travel or on-call elements.
- 06Compensation
Compensation expectations
An open conversation about expectations and how they relate to the role, so there are no late surprises.
- 07Process
Interview process
How many stages, what each involves, who you will meet and the likely timescale.
- 08Communication
Communication
How and when you will hear about progress and feedback — including when the answer is no.
02Candidate journey
Understand the opportunity
before deciding whether
it’s right for you.
Candidates are professionals considering a significant decision, not entries in a database. The process is designed to give you the information you need — and to respect your decision either way.
- 01
Experience
What you have done, where, and what you are known for professionally.
- 02
Career direction
What you want more of, less of, and what would make a move worthwhile.
- 03
Opportunity
The role, the employer context and why it may be relevant to you.
- 04
Conversation
An open discussion of responsibilities, location, working model and compensation.
- 05
Interview
Preparation, logistics and feedback through each stage the employer runs.
- 06
Decision
Your decision — made with the information you need to make it.
03Your consent
Nothing is shared
without your agreement.

Introduced with the candidate’s agreement, for this role only.
Your details are introduced to an employer only in connection with a specific role and with your agreement. You will know which organisation and which role before your information is shared.
You decide whether to pursue an opportunity at every stage. If a role is not right, you can say so — and the reasons help shape future conversations.
04 Vacancies
Current opportunities
Status
No public vacancies are currently listed.
Many permanent searches are conducted directly rather than advertised. If you work in one of the sectors below and are open to a conversation, you can send your CV and an outline of what you are looking for.
05 Being straightforward
What you can
expect — and what not.
Recruitment works better when everyone is clear about what it can and cannot do.
- 01Honesty
An accurate description
Roles are described as they are, including what is still to be confirmed by the employer.
- 02Realism
No promises of a job
Sending a CV does not guarantee that you will be introduced, interviewed or offered a role. Hiring decisions are made by employers.
- 03Respect
Your time respected
You will only be approached about roles that appear relevant to your experience and the direction you have described.
