Talent mapping:
finding the right candidates for approach

We recognise that in-house talent acquisition teams may want to approach, engage and manage potential candidates themselves. We absolutely get this.

We focus on candidates who are not actively looking for roles, as well as those who are more visible. Mapping gives our clients robust name identification and competitor insights to guide in-house approaches, both for immediate hires or longer term opportunities.

Benefits for your business

Lower costs than recruitment agencies

Our costs are based on the work we do, rather than a percentage of the salary package. And, because we don’t charge placement fees, you can recruit multiple people from our identified talent pools without any associated costs.

Proactive approach

Our research uncovers the best talent, not just those who are actively seeking a new role. This approach allows you to find the right people for the role with confidence that a wide talent pool has been reviewed and the best selected for you to take forward.

Insight as well as talent

Not only do we find individuals who fit the role requirements, we also provide competitor mapping. This provides an understanding of how industry-leading organisations are structured, helping you to improve recruitment and shape organisation design.

Our team has significant experience in searching the market, both in the UK and overseas and across a wide range of industries. We focus on ensuring you have the best insights to guide your recruitment activity.

How talent mapping can help your business

In general, our mapping services can be split into two main areas: market mapping and competitor mapping.

Mapping the market

Once we have understood your requirements, we spend time proactively seeking and finding relevant individuals in the market. This information is shared with you through a Market Mapping Report, which includes information about the individuals and all the details you need to progress recruitment with those of interest. Our data also allows you to understand the marketplace, in particular gender splits and relevant competitor companies.

Understanding competitors

Here our approach is focused on target companies, rather than individuals. Our insights cover a wide range of essential information, including size, structure and organisation design, key talent and employer brand reputation. This allows you to understand your competitors’ approach to talent and provides valuable information to make informed strategic decisions.
