Expertise — Permanent recruitment
Axiom Talent Solutions Ltd is a permanent recruitment consultancy for technical and professional roles. Every assignment — contingent or retained — begins with a clearly defined requirement.
01Why it matters
A permanent appointment shapes a team for years. It deserves more than a job advert and a pile of CVs. The quality of the outcome depends heavily on how well the requirement is understood before anyone is approached.
Axiom’s permanent recruitment is structured around that idea. The brief is defined carefully; the search is directed by it; candidates are introduced with context; and the process is communicated clearly from first conversation to appointment.
This applies across the four sectors Axiom works in — engineering, IT & technology, finance and professional services — and across both search models.
02 The permanent process
Seven connected stages. They can move quickly or deliberately depending on the role — but each one has a purpose and an output.
Clarify the purpose of the role, its responsibilities, the essential requirement and the practical parameters — location, working model, compensation and interview process.
OutputAn agreed, searchable brief
Identify where relevant experience is likely to exist and approach people whose background relates to the requirement, rather than relying only on those actively applying.
OutputA defined search across the relevant market
Review experience against the brief. Distinguish genuine relevance from keyword overlap, and be honest about where the market and the brief do not meet.
OutputPotentially relevant candidates
Discuss the opportunity openly with candidates: responsibilities, environment, working model, compensation, timing and motivation. Interest is confirmed, not assumed.
OutputMutual interest confirmed
Introduce relevant candidates to the employer with role-specific context, with each candidate’s agreement and for this role only.
OutputIntroductions with context
Coordinate interview stages, preparation, logistics and feedback, so both employer and candidate know where the process stands.
OutputA coordinated interview process
Support communication through offer and acceptance. The hiring decision, employment terms and pre-employment checks remain with the employer.
OutputThe employer’s decision
03Search models
Both models are permanent recruitment. The difference is structure and commitment — and the right choice depends on the requirement, not on a rule that one is always better.
Permanent recruitment support where fees are governed by agreed contingent terms.
A dedicated staged search structure for selected assignments.
Fees and commercial terms are not published. They are agreed with each employer before recruitment activity begins, and any rebate or replacement provisions are governed by those agreed terms.
04 Both sides of the hire
Permanent recruitment works best when both the employer and the candidate understand exactly what is being proposed.
The requirement is separated into what is essential, what is preferred and what is negotiable before the market is approached.
Candidates are introduced because their experience relates to the brief, with context on why and what remains to be confirmed.
Responsibilities, environment, working model and compensation are discussed openly before a candidate decides whether to proceed.
Candidate details are shared with an employer only in connection with a specific role and with the candidate’s agreement.
