The Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For many years, the client relied on a single recruitment agency to hire PAs (now EAs). That relationship worked well until standards began to slip, leaving the business without a trusted partner.<\/p>\n

With hiring needs growing as the company expanded from 45 employees to around 200, the client needed a recruitment agency that could take the time to understand the firm\u2019s values, find the right calibre of candidates, and build a lasting relationship. They preferred to work with one recruiter who \u201cjust gets us,\u201d rather than having to repeat requirements to multiple agencies.<\/p>\n

After testing several firms, including both boutique and high-volume recruiters, the client engaged Tiger Recruitment.<\/p>\n

The Solution<\/strong><\/h2>\n

From the outset, Tiger Recruitment stood out by focusing on relationship-building and cultural understanding. Working closely with the hiring manager, our consultant quickly grasped the types of profiles that would thrive in the business, while also ensuring diversity of thought and background rather than providing \u201ccarbon copies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The client described Tiger\u2019s approach as one where their consultant \u201cjust nailed it\u201d \u2013 consistently presenting candidates who not only had the skills required but also fit seamlessly into the team dynamic.<\/p>\n

Tiger\u2019s long-standing partnership with The Oxford Media & Business School (OMBS) was also highlighted as a differentiator, giving the client confidence in the calibre of entry-level candidates. Alongside this, Tiger maintained transparency when the market was challenging, setting realistic expectations.<\/p>\n

Over time, the relationship has become one of familiarity and trust: \u201cIt\u2019s easy, it\u2019s familiar. We don\u2019t use anyone else now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n
