Get in touch

Exclusive recruitment

Exclusive recruitment: person target iconWorking with you exclusively to find the top talent in a more structured approach.

Why work with us exclusively?

  • One recruiter contact with a thorough understanding of your business, culture and values.
  • Structured process and accountability in line with realistic timelines.
  • We will treat your role/s as priority with your commitment to work with us exclusively.
  • We utilise all resources to find both active and passive candidates, using our network and several platforms.
  • We can integrate your employer branding into our process.
  • We will headhunt top talent and you won’t have to wait for top talent to approach you.
  • Quality over quantity – comprehensive and structured resourcing, ensuring you have the best shortlist of candidates available at that time, delivered after a careful evaluation of talent pools.

Retained recruitment

Retained recruitment: magnifying glass document iconWe will work with you as an exclusive and retained partner for one or multiple vacancies at one time. Retained search can be broken down into three phases and our fee structure reflects this:

  1. Upfront payment before the searching begins to ensure commitment from both sides
  2. Shortlist and interviews
  3. Successful placement and onboarding

Why choose a retained approach?

  • Commitment and priority

    Your commitment to partnering with us, ensures your role/s will be treated as top priority and we can integrate your employer branding with our strategy to create a seamless and transparent process. Unlike contingency recruiting, where agencies might prioritise multiple clients, we are contractually obligated to dedicate our resources.

  • Access to top talent

    Comprehensive search process, including access to passive candidates, exploring all avenues across existing network and extended networks across several platforms. You won’t have several irrelevant CVs from several agencies, you will have a thorough talent pool review, search and selection process.

  • Comprehensive process and accountability

    A more structured and thorough process, with clear timelines and regular updates. We are accountable for delivering results, providing detailed feedback, market insights, and strategic advice throughout the process.

  • Long-term partnership

    We aim to become a trusted and strategic partner.

  • Cost-effective in the long run

    While a retained approach will involve an upfront fee, there is a far greater chance that you will receive a return on investment longer term. We reduce the costs associated with long-standing vacancies and improve your retention rates.

Contingency recruitment

Contingency recruitment: now hiring iconWe can work in conjunction with your current recruitment methods, advertising your role/s and utilising our existing network to send candidates who meet your criteria.

We will only invoice once the candidate/s start.

"I would highly recommend Lotus Talent. We had a very specific Sales requirement we were recruiting for and Kelly spent time with us to get a full understanding of our requirements and was very helpful in creating the job description. As a result, the quality of candidates were significantly more suitable for the role, compared with candidates put forward by other recruiters working on the same role. We were able to choose from several quality candidates to fill the position."
