Why BlockIT Recruitment?

Are you looking for high quality candidates at competitive rates?

Tired of dealing with pushy recruiters only looking to hit their targets and get their bonuses?

Looking for someone who understands the needs and requirements of your small business, and offers service with a more personal touch?

Here at BlockIT Recruitment, you may find things are done a little bit differently, with good, old-fashioned Customer Service at the heart of everything. Taking the time to develop relationships with all clients, to really get an understanding of their needs, ensuring a much higher success rate of getting someone who is an ideal fit for the role.

As a small business ourselves, BlockIT believe that communication is key and keep our clients informed at every stage of their recruitment journey – regardless of whether they are an employer or a candidate.

From my previous employment I know how challenging recruitment can be, draining both your time and your resources, and understand how difficult it can be to keep all the plates spinning. That’s where I come in.

Over the last 20 years, I have built up experience across several sectors with a predominant focus on IT and Support. However, I also have a lot of experience in providing office management and office support, for commercial and industrial sectors.

Don’t be put off by size! I have a trusted network of connections and strong relationships with other recruitment firms who support BlockIT when required, allowing me to expand on my own expertise and enabling me to take on larger recruitment projects, so no job is too large or too small.

I personally take great pride in continuing relationships after a role has been filled, following up after the first week to see how things have gone, and then scheduling continuing updates throughout the initial probation period to make sure that both you and your candidate are happy with the outcome.

How it works

After an initial conversation, either in person, or over the phone, to discuss your requirements, I will let you know immediately if I can help or not, If so, then great, but even if I can’t at this moment in time, or if I’m not the right fit for your job, I will always try and point you in the right direction of someone else who can help. No false promises, and no time wasting.

If this has got you thinking it’s time for a change, and I sound like your sort of recruiter then why not get in touch for a no obligation chat?

Services

BlockIT Recruitment offer a range of services for employers, depending on your needs and requirements.

Don’t see anything that quite fits your needs? – As a business owner myself, I understand that every business is unique, and one size doesn’t always fit all so it’s always worth getting in touch to see if I can offer you a bespoke package suited to your requirements, please ask.

1: Permanent / Contract and Fixed Term Recruitment:

The most popular recruitment package for employers with a one-off fee. This package includes Job advertisement, CV sourcing and selection, assistance with conducting interviews, and follow ups with both client and candidates.

This service is recommended for businesses who may be too busy to focus on recruitment, and are looking for a simple, convenient way to manage their hiring processes from start to finish.

2: CV Sourcing:

I will work closely with you to create an eye catching job ad, which is then circulated on all the major job boards. You will received all CVs from potential candidates, for one fixed fee regardless of whether it is a single hire or multiple hires.

This service is a great option if it is your first time hiring for a particular position, and you require some guidance and support with creating the initial advert to ensure you receive the maximum number of applicants.

Finding the right people is never easy and it's something I hate, having to go through so many CVs and find the right person for the job. Thanks to Rebecca for all her help in getting us our new team member. Never experienced an easier process. I gave her the requirements and within a week we had the perfect candidate for the role. If you're recruiting then make sure you speak to Rebecca and I am sure she will find the right person for your business and team. She did for us. Thanks again Rebecca and speak soon for my next hiring round.

I decided to give a start-up recruitment company a chance to help recruit for an Infrastructure Engineer. I found Rebecca easy to get along with, very down to earth and inquisitive, interested in understanding the culture fit with our existing team members, not just the skillsets, she successfully matched both the person and the job specifications and he is already deeply involved in the team and quickly becoming an asset.

2 months have passed now, since making this hire and I can only praise the excellent service and candidate standard which Rebecca delivered. BlockIT Recruitment exceeded my expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

I have dealt with Rebecca for the past 17 years or more, and during that period I have always found her attentive, courteous and passionate when it comes to selecting the right candidates for our company. In an age when selection is so important, its re-assuring to know that we can turn to Rebecca to ensure that we select the best candidates available

I've had the pleasure of knowing Rebecca for several months now and have liaised with her on several Technology roles. Rebecca is a very rare breed in Tech Recruitment... she is passionate about the underlying technologies and has done substantial reading-up on these. A good example is Blockchain, where she is probably one of the UK's leading recruiters in this area...given she actually understands the technologies and where the industry is heading. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and her work.

I’ve been working with rebecca throughout an entire selection process, her care and her feedback during all this time have been unbeatable and I think that she performs at the highest levels of excellence in hers job.

To achieve this, you must have outstanding skills or a passion for what you're doing, and Rebecca has both.

Rebecca invited me to apply for a web development position and while I did not take the job, I found it to be a valuable process that was unlike my other experiences with recruiters. Rebecca is very enthusiastic, friendly, pragmatic and positive. I always felt I was a high priority and that I had her full attention - again unlike other recruiters! I can recommend her to others looking for development work.
