We are not just here to fill a job; we will spend time getting to know you and your business,
enabling us to advise you on the best approach to take for your current recruitment needs.
Rather than relying on a pre-defined ‘off the shelf’ solution, we will listen to you, find out what
is most important to you and agree on the best way forward via consultation.
In managing a campaign our recruitment approach is based around not only the technical
and skills requirements of a role, but equally the culture, personality and all the other
intangibles that make the match between individual, role and organisation work.
Whether you’re seeking that ‘needle in a haystack’ individual or looking to build and develop
your team, you’ll find our approach sincere and passionate. Our custom-made approach is
easy to work with and at all times cost effective.
At C2 Retail our approach to each assignment is refreshingly consistent;
providing an individually tailored service to each client and every campaign we

C2 Recruitment have supported us with the recruitment of Head Chefs, Hospitality
Managers and Sales Managers for various units across our company. They are very
efficient, professional and commercially aware and have worked relentlessly to ensure a
high number of quality candidates have been presented for interview with a broad range
of skills relevant to our business.
As a leading hospitality brand we operate outside of the normal office hours and at
weekends and it has been of significant value to be able to communicate with them late
in the evening and at weekends to discuss and arrange interviews and provide relevant
feedback.
We will certainly be working with C2 Recruitment in the future wherever there is
a requirement to source high quality candidates for our organisation and would
recommend other recruiters to do the same.
Alan W - Regional Human Resources Manager

I have no issue with recommending C2 Recruitment as a recruitment service provider
of the highest calibre; operating with the utmost integrity, professionalism and attention
to detail rarely seen in the recruitment agency marketplace, they have supported us for
many years, consistently providing us with candidates not only qualified to ‘do the job’
but those candidates with the potential to succeed and add real value to our organization.
Efficient and accurate, I know that if we give a brief to C2, I can expect a good cache of
qualified candidates who meet our requirements.
