The search

The best candidates for a senior role are usually employed and not applying, so we go to them.

The brief

We agree the role, the reporting line, the package and what success looks like in the first year before the search starts.
The market map

We map who holds comparable roles in Pakistan and among Pakistani professionals already working in the Gulf.
The approach

We approach candidates directly and in confidence, and test their interest against your brief before you see a name.

Confidential searches

When the role is still filled, or the hire is sensitive, the search runs without your name on it.

Your name
Candidates learn the employer’s name only when they reach the shortlist and agree to confidentiality.
Your incumbent
The role is never advertised, so the person you are replacing does not hear of it from the market.
Your records
Briefs, candidate files and correspondence are held under our ISO 27001 information security controls.

The shortlist

Every candidate on the shortlist has been interviewed and checked, so your time goes on the final decision.

Written assessment
Each candidate comes with a written assessment against your brief: experience, achievements, motivation and package.
References
References are taken from former managers before the shortlist, not after the offer.
Qualifications
Degrees and professional qualifications are verified and attested for the destination country.

How degrees are attested for each destination is set out on our Documentation, attestation and visas page.

After the offer

A senior hire is not finished at the offer, so we stay with it until the person is working.

Notice and offer

We manage the offer and the notice period, so the candidate does not take a counter-offer.
Relocation

Work visa, family visas, attested documents and travel, arranged for the start date.
