Recruitment that respects your time, your team, and the hire.

TW Recruitment is a UK permanent recruitment partner working with employers across the country. One named consultant, a written brief, a vetted shortlist, and the day-7, 30 and 90 follow-ups that keep the placement settled.

  • Vetted, not just sourced
  • Shortlist in 5-7 days
  • Replacement guarantee
  • One direct consultant

A hire only works if both sides feel cared for. The employer needs the brief taken seriously. The candidate needs the truth, not a sales pitch.

Why employers stay with us

Hiring well shouldn't feel like a second job.

We exist to take that load. We brief properly, vet thoroughly, and stand behind the people we send.

One named consultant

You will not be passed around the desk. The consultant who takes your brief is the one who shortlists, briefs candidates, negotiates the offer, and follows up post-start.

5-7 day shortlist

Most live briefs receive their first qualified shortlist within a week. Urgent roles flagged on day one are prioritised across the desk.

Replacement guarantee

Every permanent placement carries a free replacement period. If a hire doesn't stick within the agreed window, we re-run the search at no charge.

Real UK reach

Active client and candidate networks across every UK region. We know who's hiring and who's about to be available, from London to Glasgow.

Vetted, not just sourced

Right-to-work, references, qualifications, motivation, salary expectations, all checked before a CV reaches your desk. No noise.

Built for the long term

Our entire desk is geared around hires that stay, the brief, the vetting, the offer support, and the day-7 / day-30 / day-90 follow-ups, all built to keep the placement in seat.

How we work

From first call to first day, taken seriously.

A clear three-step process. No drawn-out kick-offs, no dropped balls.

I.

The brief, properly

A 30-45 minute briefing call. We capture the role, the team, the must-haves, the deal-breakers, the salary band and the timeline. You get a written brief back to confirm.

II.

Targeted shortlist

We approach our network and active candidates, vet, interview and rank. You receive a tight, qualified shortlist with our notes, salary expectations and availability.

III.

Offer support and onboarding

We handle counter-offer pressure, notice-period coordination and start-date logistics, then check in on day 7, 30 and 90 to make sure the hire is working.

Common questions

Questions employers ask before working with us.

How quickly can you deliver a shortlist?
Most permanent briefs receive their first shortlist within 5-7 working days. Senior or specialist briefs may take a fortnight, but we will tell you upfront. We never sit on a brief.
What parts of the UK do you cover?
All four nations. We have active candidate and client networks across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and run nationwide and remote-first searches as standard.
Are your fees percentage-based?
For permanent placements, yes, we work on a percentage of first-year base salary. The exact rate depends on level and sector, and is agreed in writing before any candidate is introduced.
What does the replacement guarantee cover?
If a placed hire leaves or is dismissed within the agreed period, we will source a free replacement. The window is usually 8-12 weeks for most roles, longer for senior hires.
Can you support confidential searches?
Yes. For replacement-of-incumbent or sensitive pre-launch hires, we can run searches without naming the client to candidates until shortlist stage and use a generic JD in initial approaches. Tell us up front if confidentiality matters.
What information do you need to start a search?
A job description (or rough notes), salary band, start-date target, and one decision-maker we can speak to. We can build the rest of the brief on a 30-45 minute call.
