Recruit
The right hiring decision can
have a huge impact on the
performance of your team,
function or line of business.
Get it wrong and you’re looking
at a cost of up to 2.5 times the
individual’s salary. And the
disruption to your business and
your teams can be
considerable.

Our assessments

Retain
With one in four employees
stating they intend to leave
their employer in the next
12 months*, retaining staff is
critical to delivering success
in any organisation.
Get it right and you’re
delivering consistently on your
business targets with a happy,
loyal workforce. Get it wrong
and you’re investing cash in
new recruits, and dealing with
disruption to the business.

performers, how do you
