Welcome to our website those of you considering recruiting staff; both existing & potential clients of Orchard Recruitment. As you have no doubt noticed; our website is very much targeted at attracting candidates and for this we make no excuse!

Our website is one of the most important tools in generating candidates. And with no candidates; we have no business.

So, why come to Orchard Recruitment?

• Our clients hire 1 in 3 candidates that we introduce to them (on average; employers recruit 1 in 10 candidates that recruitment organisations submit
• We personally interview every candidate (not all recruitment organisations do this)
• Wherever possible, we talk with a candidate's previous employer; establishing if they really are as good as they say they are!
• We thoroughly assess candidates skills; IT, numeracy, literacy etc
• We carry out psychometric profiling; letting you know what kind of person you're really getting!

In short we only submit people that we believe in; people that we'd hire ourselves. We are very choosy! Elitist perhaps! However; the confidence in our processes means that we can back up our claims by offering outstanding guarantees

• Up to 2 Year's Free Replacement for permanent staff
• A 3-day no quibble guarantee for temporaries!

Here's what a few of our existing clients said about us;

• 'I am pleased to announce the opening of our sixth sales office and I would like to record my thanks to your dedicated recruitment teams for their continued supply of top quality sales and administration personnel over the last ten years. On current form, we are more than willing to continue to use Orchard as our sole recruitment agency and look forward to the continued success of both our Companies.';
  Mike Franklin, Managing Director, Lanes Property Agents
• 'Please thank your staff for their quite extraordinary help last week ;they went to great lengths to try to provide us with assistance. We have used Orchard for over 10 years now and have found your staff easy to deal with, enthusiastic and, above all, responsive to our business needs. We look forward to working with you for many years.'
  Norma Morris, Partner, Curwens Solicitors
• 'Having used Orchard Recruitment & Heroes almost exclusively for my staffing needs in my last company, Ripmax; it seemed obvious to turn to them again as I grow my new organisation Vertical Leisure. Graham Martin and Karen Leggett's team have lost none of their touch over the years and I'm delighted that they understand just what I'm looking for. Infact; I've hired 3 new employees from them over the last 6 months. What I particularly like is their attention to detail and personal service. I'd have no hesitation in recommending them!'
  Clive Coote, Director, Vertical Leisure
• 'How lucky we were to have Jenny working in our reception area for the last few weeks. She was an exceptional temp who got on well with all the staff'
  Jeni Williams, Personnel Officer, Lengard Ltd
• 'Thanks Karen. I'm delighted that you were successful in finding two candidates so quickly, who both met our requirements precisely. You listened to the brief and only sent us candidates that you thought were suitable. The other agency just kept sending through CV's for anyone who was remotely suitable.          Simon Morrison, Managing Director, Select Apartments
