NOP Search was launched in 2001 by two brothers who, having worked on both sides of the recruitment consultant/recruiting client divide for many years, recognised the restrictions imposed by traditional methods and decided that there had to be a better way to service their clients.

They developed a unique service that combined any or all of the traditional recruitment methods of database searching, inter-agency cooperation, advertised recruitment and headhunting as one single client offering. A simple, single recruitment solution for any staff sourcing needs …

Our business has come a long way since those modest beginnings and we now recruit for household names, public sector organisations, the civil service, not-for-profit organisations and SMEs in London, across the UK and worldwide.

We take a great deal of pride in our work and have always felt that it is our responsibility to gain a clear and detailed understanding of both the recruitment brief and the organisation we are recruiting for. We know that this commitment to our craft will make sure that the people we shortlist not only fit the role but thrive in their new environment.

Since the very beginning we have recognised the importance of a clear and simple client-orientated fee structure. Unlike others in our industry, we calculate our fees ONLY on the basic salary that you are offering your new recruit. We do not get involved with bonuses or package details; we believe that this is between employer and employee, and, as they are often negotiated during the recruitment process, it could lead to unnecessary complications. Speed and simplicity are our two keenest goals, and our straightforward fees continue to be popular with our clients.

NOP Search offers our unique recruitment agency service to clients in London, nationally and internationally. So, wherever you are in the world, if you would like to discuss our services or a role that you are looking to fill, please do give us a call on +44 (0)20 8387 1494. We would be happy to help you to create job specifications and discuss the long-term recruitment strategy of your business as well as our own methodology for quickly and successfully satisfying your recruitment needs.

Tailored recruitment solution

Whether you are looking to recruit an individual or a whole team, an administrator, executive or a member of your senior management, our consultants will create a uniquely tailored recruitment campaign for you, using any or all of the traditional recruitment methods.

This unique “fusion of methods” approach to recruiting has proven to be a rapid and successful solution to filling vacancies at all levels within our national and international client base.

Rapid-response recruitment

Contacting us with a recruitment project sets in motion a campaign that aims, rapidly and accurately, to satisfy your staffing needs.

Your NOP Search consultant will gather all the information they need from you about the role, the organisation, the opportunities, prospects and motivations that could attract the best candidates to your company. They will then prepare a recruitment campaign that is tailored to your specific demands, having considered the most appropriate combination of traditional recruitment methods. Finally, the execution of your campaign will always be swift, targeted, and result in a shortlist of motivated and experienced candidates.

Our uniquely tailored service can be moulded to suit the individual demands of our clients. Therefore we can always offer the most responsive solution to your recruitment needs.

Simple fee structure that is kind to your budget

Our fee structure simplifies the often complex charging methods that are prevalent in the recruitment sector today. Our fees are as easy to calculate as our “Plain English” terms of business are transparent and simple to follow – a combination that for many years has been popular with our clients.

The basic salary of the role you are recruiting for is the ONLY factor we consider when calculating our fees. We do not include bonuses or benefits, and there are no additions, hidden charges or up-front costs. We believe that our clients should be free to focus on attracting top talent through package negotiation where necessary, rather than having to keep an eye on the recruitment budget as they do so.

Simple but effective – and, of course, our fees are only payable on the successful completion of your recruitment campaign.

We shall employ whatever combination of recruitment methods will most efficiently and effectively source the staff you are looking for. No matter how many of these methods we combine to create your shortlist of candidates, our fees will remain the same.

Time taken to understand our clients

Simply sourcing an individual based on the client’s job specification is only 50 per cent of a recruiter’s role. At NOP Search we are not interested in a quick-fix “bums on seats” approach to recruiting; we are dedicated to finding individuals for our clients who will not only fit into their company culture, but thrive in it.

To these ends we will always take the time to gain a deeper understanding of the business we are recruiting for, the environment the new recruit will be working in and the prospects and opportunities that this new position will offer them. It is our role to understand not only what you are looking for in them, but also what might motivate them to offer you their loyalty for the long term. Our consultants are recruitment professionals adept at assessing client requirements, creating job specifications, managing early client/candidate relationships, analysing the best recruitment methods to use for any campaign and offering rapid, accurate candidate shortlists to ensure a smooth, transparent and successful recruitment exercise.

Our professionals can discuss your role in depth, extrapolate the appropriate job description and identify the unique points of attraction for potential candidates. When the candidates are found, we will then be able to present the opportunity in the most informative and genuine light.

Not just a nine-to-five service

Our dedication to speedily resolving your recruitment needs means that our recruitment consultants rarely work a standard nine-to-five day. They all take a “whatever it takes” approach to completing your assignment on time, in budget and with the right person. NOP Search consultants take pride in sourcing individuals who will not only satisfy your brief, but (we hope) will surpass it and flourish within your organisation.

Our recruitment consultants will want to engage the interest of potential candidates, not only with the position that you are offering, but also the unique aspects of your company, prospects and the environment they could be working in. They therefore take a deeper interest in understanding what you have to offer a new employee before they set about sourcing the best shortlist for the role. We only want to bring you together with individuals whom we genuinely feel are “best-fit” solutions to your recruitment needs.

Multi-sector expertise

The majority of our consultants have been with us for years, but we continue to seek out the best new talent to join our teams. They have come to us from numerous sectors and specialisations, but still have one thing in common: a focus on client satisfaction and a dedication to rapid, effective recruitment.

NOP Search consultants are specialists in recruiting at all levels, within organisations from any sector. Feedback from our clients tells us that this adaptive approach has been one of the major reasons why they have used us in the past and will continue to entrust us with their recruitment campaigns.

Our unique service, which tailors the recruitment method we use around the needs of our clients, is what separates us from others in our industry. It has proven to be an effective, rapid and successful way of sourcing staff for our SME, household-name, civil-service, not-for-profit and public-sector clients.

Our unique tailored service ensures a simple, rapid and successful recruitment solution for all of our London, UK and international clients.

NOP Search runs effective, targeted recruitment campaigns that source the right people for your company, whatever the role, size and sector of your business.

We have a “whatever-it-takes” attitude to your recruitment needs, and to those ends we have developed an unrivalled service that combines any or all of the traditional recruitment methods into one single service, created around the needs of each individual client.

To design your recruitment campaign, our consultants will select from, or combine any one or more of, the following established recruitment disciplines.

• Headhunting/Executive Search:
  We locate and attract individuals who may not currently be looking to move on, but have the finest skills and potential for your role.
• Advertised Search and Selection:
  This broader recruitment campaign aims to appeal to those currently looking and others who may consider a move for the right opportunity.
• Our database:
  We have been building and maintaining this extensive list of job seekers since 2001, and it continues to grow and develop on a daily basis.
• Cooperative network:
  We maintain an excellent relationship with an entire network of recruiters, all of whom keep their own well-stocked job seeker repositories.
• NOP Search:
  The unique service combines all of these disciplines to achieve rapid-turnaround while delivering a comprehensive shortlist of candidates.

Our dedicated team of multi-sector recruitment specialists based in our London office work in a cooperative environment where they can call upon each other’s time and skills if your campaign requires it.

When recruiting through NOP Search, you can be assured of a professional service, a tailored solution and a successful campaign.
