6. VALUES & PHILOSOPHY
UNITED | OPEN | BESPOKE
Our brand philosophy and values are at
the very core of everything we do. We
understand that our company has three
major stakeholders: our clients, our
candidates and our employees; and we
can only deliver on what we promise by
ensuring that each of these have trust in
the company, its services and its vision.
By applying our core values to everything
we do, we differentiate ourselves from our
competitors and lay the foundations on
which we can build long term, successful
relationships today, and in the future.
UNITED
We understand that by working in
partnership with our clients we can achieve
more than on our own. Through sharing
knowledge and experience we gain a better
understanding of the challenges we face. By
working together we inspire and motivate
all around us to help us to undertake tasks
successfully, which in turn results in greater
productivity, recognition and success for all.
OPEN
We are completely open both internally
and externally. We understand that only
by hiding nothing and being completely
transparent can we then build trust,
confidence and commitment between
ourselves and our clients.
BESPOKE
We do not live in a formulaic society and
as our clients, candidates and consultants
needs and expectations change, so must
our offering to meet these. Only by asking
pertinent questions and listening thoroughly
can we deliver truly targeted responses,
which successfully address the challenges
and opportunities we face.

Potential clients often ask us why they
should choose Arrows Group to oversee
their vital recruitment processes. Working
in highly competitive markets, they know
that sourcing the best possible staff with
maximum efficiency is essential to their
business success.
And we know that they want a brief, concise
answer. So we’ve got it down to five points:
Over 60% of Arrows Group placements are

the strength of our networks, but also the
confidence that we instill in our clients
and candidates.

that brings together usually separate
recruitment processes. For you, this means
we offer a service that can be tailored to
your exact requirements.
Our international resources enable us to
operate 24/7. So you can speak to someone
whenever you need to; and we can achieve
the results you need, even with extremely
tight deadlines.
Our strict sector focus means that we have
an intimate knowledge of the markets we
work in. We’re not a jack of all trades; we’re
master of our core areas.
We take quality seriously, both when
working for our clients and when running our
own business. That’s why we’re ISO 9001
accredited and members of both
APSCo and REC.
