Embedding into your team and running the hiring on booked days. No percentage of salary, no permanent headcount, and the process stays with you after the engagement.

Charged again on every role, however urgent. When they leave, nothing stays behind.
Salary, National Insurance, pension and tooling, paid through every quarter you are not hiring.
Sourcing, screening and scheduling, taken from product and customers.
A day rate agreed upfront, invoiced monthly on days used. No percentage of salary at any point.
Running while you hire, paused when you stop. 30 days notice either way.
Sourcing, screening, scheduling and offers move to me. You keep the 20 minutes only you can do.
Every scorecard, candidate record and process document lives in your systems, not mine. Hire 16 happens without me.
The same sequence runs whether you need one urgent hire or a full quarter of volume.
Who you are looking for, what success looks like at 90 days, and the non-negotiables. Searches fail here more than anywhere else.
Direct approach to candidates who are not looking. Screened against 3 qualities: hard working, humble, hungry.
Interview loop built for the role. Scorecards written before the first candidate. Offer strategy and counter-offer conversation handled before the offer goes out.
Strategy, scorecards and process stay with your team. Any hire leaving inside 90 days is replaced at no fee.
Scope, source, secure, stay. For as long as you need me, and not a day longer.
Move the sliders to your own numbers. Every assumption is adjustable, so if the sums don't work in your favour, you'll see it here rather than on a call.
Employer National Insurance and pension, on top of base salary.
Hiring arrives in bursts. A salaried recruiter is fixed for all 12 months regardless.
Typically a fraction of either, and you only pay while you're actively hiring. Your exact cost depends on scope, which is what a discovery call is for.

Ministry of Justice, where the technology hiring function was built from nothing. Microsoft, 100 hires and a 40 percent cut in time to hire. Nationwide, 52 specialists across data, infrastructure and cybersecurity for a £1B transformation. Frontiers EMEA, 20 months across two continents with no job board spend.
14 years in talent acquisition. 500 hires. £7.2M in agency fees that stayed in my clients' budgets where they belonged.
I have built hiring functions from nothing at the Ministry of Justice and the Attorney General's Office, and run embedded teams inside Microsoft, Nationwide, Frontiers EMEA, Equal Experts and EY. Since 2024 I have run this model for pre-seed and seed companies across the UK and Europe.
Every brief I have taken started the same way. Someone had a job title and no clear picture of who they were looking for. Closing that gap is the whole job.
Luis is great. He provided some solid inputs to my business, which I immediately implemented. I highly recommend his services.
