Our Story
From humble beginnings in a 1 person serviced office in 2002, we have grown continuously and now have offices across the UK. From our Head Office in Greater Manchester to regional offices in London & Edinburgh, we are committed to being your route to the right people.
There is no denying we’re bigger and we’ve been on an incredible journey as we’ve introduced new sectors and office locations, but we’ve always retained a local, personal touch driven from our humble roots in Greater Manchester.
How everything started?
When we started in 2002, every client was important to us and every vacancy we were briefed on mattered. We were consumed with doing the best we could to discover the best possible matches for both candidates and clients, and to this day those values have not changed.
As organisations get bigger, they can lose sight of what made them a success in the early days, but it is important for you to know that behind every vacancy filled, and every bit of advice and support we give, is a genuine desire to provide the best service backed up by informed thinking and genuine insight.
Every person we recommend has been carefully and purposefully selected, every interaction with you is anticipated to deliver the best results. Above all, you should know when it comes to finding and securing the best talent, successful recruitment is all in the detail.
We focus on connecting specialist talent with leading employers.
What we do?
Simply put, we connect businesses to the people they need, whilst helping candidates fulfil their potential and get want they want from their careers. We take the hard work away from you, by taking time to understand the details that matter.
Using our decades of skill and industry knowledge, we create long term partnerships with both candidates and clients.
Why businesses choose to work with us?
At Detail2, our approach to recruitment is different to the norm, we work as trusted recruitment partners. When we say ‘recruitment partner’ we mean each of our consultants take the time to understand the detail of each unique business and strive to create an original solution for every client – regardless of level, length of contract or salary. A true consultative and detailed partnership.
Our Teams understand your next hire needs to make long-term commercial sense for your business, and details matter. That’s why we believe successful recruitment is all in the detail.
We invest time and resources to ensure we have a thorough understanding of your business and recruitment requirements. Through a comprehensive insight into your business, we add bottom line value by providing access to the best candidates in the country.
What you should know?
We don’t waste time trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
With two decades of recruitment experience, we deeply understand the requirements of both our clients and candidates.
This means we don’t waste time pushing candidates into roles or asking clients to accept candidates who won’t work for the role or wider business.
We know that taking the time to approach a recruitment consultancy can feel like a leap of faith – that’s why we work hard to make sure we find the best fit for everyone involved.
We have access to some of the best active candidates on the market but our experienced recruitment consultants are also able to bring interesting, passive candidates to the table.
Once we’ve found you the best matches possible, our BPS qualified Assessors can help you make the best decision for your business.
