Transparency: We enable our clients to participate
in the recruitment process as passively or actively
as they would like. Transparency is key in creating
clients’ visions for their company; therefore, clients
can track progress of the recruitment life cycle
effortlessly.
DIVERSITYAt the forefront of our brand, is our commitment to inclusion and diversity.
Our teams uphold these values right here in our office, by ensuring each member
of our staff feels liberated. They can express their views and preferences freely and
respectfully without the fear of being judged.
We partner with The Big Issue Foundation to enable financial inclusion through
digital transformation, supporting a programme to have more vendors using
payment portals rather than carrying cash, which is a safety threat to those working
on the streets.
We have played an active role in promoting diversity in the national workplace,
partnering with STEMettes, who encourage females to enter the science, technology,
engineering and math industries. This helps to promote skills growth at a grass-roots
level and to actively participate in techUK diversity programmes.
We collaborate with Edit Development, which holds discussions about millennial
workforce. They also provide leadership and diversity training at all levels and have
trained our sales force on unconscious bias. This partnership is never more evident
than at the London Tech Week show, which takes place every year in June.
We also work with Kaleidoscope, an inspirational recruitment company that offers
youth internships and company start-up advice and capital. Together, we invest in
the future and the promise of youth.

“DiversityJobs.co.uk applauds the direction Salt has taken in terms of their
approach to diversity. It’s refreshing to work with an agency that sees the
opportunity to widen their appeal to a broader social spectrum and is raising the
topic to their clients rather than waiting to be asked. The recruitment industry needs
more businesses like Salt who see diversity as an asset, rather than a liability that
has to be dealt with.” - Morgan Lobb, CEO and Founder of DiversityJobs.co.uk

WHY SALT?Any industry that has witnessed radical change and
significant growth requires the services of specialised
teams. Most of our consultants are industry natives and
have prior contacts and experience working within a
specific vertical niche market.
We also provide constant updates and advice on
market trends, salary benchmarks, and competitor
analysis to inform your business development. You will
only collaborate with experts who truly understand
the often highly technical requirements of the roles in
question - our specialist experience allows you to see
better candidates faster.
Ability to deliverOur successful track record of placements across the
UK and Europe is illustrated by our client portfolio, and
testimonials from global brands.
We cast a deep net across both active and passive
candidate markets to reach the market of applicants,
particularly within the upper-quartile talent group. With
a team of global consultants proactively headhunting
hundreds of off-market candidates each week, we give
you the power to meet those game changers who will
deliver a strategic advantage, when you need it most.
We use both unique and traditional approaches to
discover leaders of excellence within niche sectors.
Our online methods include online advertising and
searching, social media networking and online
headhunting. More traditionally our charismatic
consultants harness our brand to attract industry
experts and off-market candidates for potential roles at
professional social networking events, trade shows and
industry association events.
We work with companies within a wide range of
industries, from travel companies to financial service
businesses. We also handle the accounts of companies
with multiple branches. So whether you need a sales
manager in Birmingham or a UX developer in Russia,
we are the one stop solution to handle assignments in
multiple locations.

CREATIVECreative brilliance can be hard to identify and even harder to harness: at Salt we can spot the creative spark that will fire up your business.
Traditionally, the greatest creative talent has always gravitated towards agency
businesses, but today some excellent creative minds can also be found within large
brands and consultancies. We allow you to reach far and wide for the best creative
talent. We don’t just limit our search to LinkedIn and job boards; we invest time and
energy into other artistic platforms that reveal creative ingenuity.
If you are looking for a professional with a creative flair to illuminate your brand’s
potential or you require the fulfilment of an unexpectedly vacated role, call us for our
insights and ability to deliver on demand.
Filling highly technical roles, demands deep market knowledge: at Salt we understand the talent you need and the technology they use.
Unlike other recruitment agencies, we take the time to ensure candidates are tested
on their applicable technical skills, using our partnership with Hackerank (bespoke
technical testing) before CVs are considered, ensuring that only honourable
candidates are recognised, saving everyone time.

OUR SERVICES
Services
RetainedRetained recruitment is better known as ‘headhunting’.
This approach is typically needed for high level, niche
or confidential roles with in-demand candidates - who
are not usually searching for new jobs. Our extensive
professional networks allow us to reach the leading
lights in any digital sphere. So our clients can pinpoint
the ideal candidate.
Permanent This offering responds quickly to changes within your
business, filling individual roles as they emerge due to
team expansion or staff departures. Our consultants
dealing with this service are masters of efficiency and
speed.
ContractWhether you need a contractor who can start work
immediately, or an interim solution, Salt’s contract
services are ideal, as we won’t let the absence of
personnel affect your bottom line.
Digital Recruitment Outsourcing (DRO)We provide a unique and cost-effective solution for
small to large scale transformations by appointing
seasoned Account Managers to handle the process,
through on-site team liaison, hiring strategies, advisory
services and delivery, while being mindful of corporate
culture and values.
Project servicesOur teams have been working with system integrators,
consultancies, agencies and brands for more than a
decade to provide contract and permanent solutions.
We have placed entire project teams on major digital
transformations for Tier-1 retailers, banks, telcos,
government bodies, as well as Programme Leads and
interim CIOs for management consultancies, tasked
with large-scale digital programmes.

We can help your company launch or highlight a new business area to the relevant market space. We build trust and encourage curiosity, while providing insight and gaining commitment from even passive candidates.
RECRUITING THROUGH EVENTS
Why host an event with Salt?We are experienced at hosting several successful events, such as Big Data
Networking with SAS, a launch for Tesco Mobile London Office and several breakfast
roundtables, such as our pragrammatic breakfast at the Hospital Club. Prestigious
events like these, offer an opportunity to directly interact with industry leaders of
the digital sector and attract off-market candidates, who may otherwise not consider
seeking out new job opportunities.
Together, we can create an experiential campaign to create high impact branding
as a low cost marketing solution. You will also be able to grasp the opportunity to
network with peers, at our collaborated events.
Why have an event?
• Launch or highlight a new business area to the relevant market space.
• Opportunity to directly market your company to targeted, influential
members of the sector.
• Attract passive candidates.
• Increase diversity and help fulfil equal opportunities responsibilities.
• Peer-to-peer networking.
• High impact, low cost marketing solution.
• Strong branding opportunity.
• Ability to collect significant insight into the digital market’s view / opinion of
your company.
Case: Tesco MobileWe partnered with Tesco at their new London offices, aiming to attract mobile
developers. Several senior mobile, product and HR professionals from Tesco held
talks about their new office, life at Tesco and the future of mobile. Out of the 30
top mobile developers, who were sourced to attend this exclusive launch, 10 were
identified as suitable for their hiring needs. Our strategically executed events will
certainly deliver results.
