Why Salt?

We are an award-winning global recruitment consultancy at the forefront of everything that is pioneering in digital.

We focus on 4 key areas: Creative, Marketing, Sales and

Technology across permanent, contract, temporary contract,

retained search, project services, HR & people solutions and

Digital Recruitment Outsourcing (DRO).

With international offices in New York, Dubai, Hong Kong, Kuala

Lumpur, Singapore, Sydney, Auckland and our headquarters in

London, we have extensive networks and with over 160 staff, we

have successfully completed thousands of searches all across

the globe.

We partner with clients we believe in, because great things come from being inspired.

We have placed with over 500 clients internationally, including

brands that are attracting, retaining, measuring and converting

users and consumers. We also work with: agencies, system

integrators, vendors and consultancies that are selling or

implementing new digital solutions.

This is illustrated by our client portfolio and testimonials from

global brands. We cast a deep net across both active and passive

candidate areas to reach the right applicants. With a team of

global consultants actively 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.

Permanent Hire

This offering responds quickly to changes within your business,

filling individual roles as they emerge due to team expansion or

staff departures.

For permanent hires we offer a contingent recruitment solution.

This means that we do not invoice until we have successfully

placed your position. We will take a detailed specification of the

position, allocate a marketing and advertising budget to attract

candidates as well as utilise our extensive network to manage the

process with you until the position is filled.

Contract

Whether you need a contractor who can start work immediately,

a freelancer, or are in need of an interim solution, our contract

services are ideal, as we won’t let the absence of personnel affect

your business.

We constantly expand our team of contract and interim

consultants, networking globally to find the best talent. We are

able to source individuals with specialist skills and experience

who can contribute to your teams and deliver complex digital

projects within a client’s specific scope.

Temporary Contract

Bringing in the talent when you need it is allowing businesses to

be more responsive, productive and profitable. For individuals

it gives you the opportunity to be exposed to different working

environments and showcase your talent.

Our consulting team have a wealth of knowledge and are true

temp experts. They will work with you to devise the best solution

and manage your workflow needs.

Retained Search

Do you want to hire a senior member of the team? Or do you

need to fill a role with a very specific skill set requirement? Our

consultants and research team will do a full sweep of the market

to find the right person. The best candidates are normally happily

employed and rarely actively looking for a new position. Every

candidate is mapped and we make proactive approaches to

attractive even passive talent.

Project services

Our service will provide you with a flexible resource solution to kick

start your project with an experienced team at a significant cost

reduction. We have placed entire project teams on major digital

transformations for retailers, banks, telecoms, government bodies

as well as programme leads and interim CIOs for management

consultancies tasked with large scale transformations.

Digital Recruitment Outsourcing, or DRO, is our subcontract

recruitment function for an organisation to recruit multiple

positions across their IT and digital departments. We provide the

process, technology, market intelligence, and detailed reporting

to ensure that the right individuals are hired, first time.

Each DRO is tailored to each organisation and involves analysing

Planning, Attraction, Sourcing, Assessment, Recruitment, Talent

and Leaver Management.

15

Diversity

We value and respect differences. As an organisation we make

it our mission to ensure that our employees feel absolutely

comfortable in bringing their whole self to work, not only does this

ensure our colleagues can work in a respectful and open-minded

environment but, it makes business sense.

Diversity is imperative to the majority of our clients internal

strategy and L&D initiatives. Hence we believe that it is important

to understand your innate needs before resourcing for any roles.

Through our growing extensive network of talent we build trust

and long-standing relationships

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. The idea is to help 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 the millennial workforce. They also

provide leadership and diversity training at all levels.

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.

16

At the forefront of our brand, is our

commitment to inclusion and diversity. Our

teams uphold these values right here in our

offices, 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.
