Africa to the Gulf

How it works

Our Recruitment Methodology

Eight stages from brief to post-placement support, each with an owner and a deliverable.

Trust & transparency

Our Trust Commitment

Everything below is something we can evidence on request. Where an outcome depends on an immigration authority rather than on us, we say so.

Sectors we actually recruit for

Ten sectors, each with roles we have worked on — hospitality and F&B, real estate, healthcare, construction and engineering, logistics, education, IT, security, corporate services and executive search.

Named placement markets

We publish the markets we source from and place into, rather than a world map of countries we have never worked in. Anything outside that list is assessed before we accept the mandate.

Compliance-led documentation

Permit and visa applications, medicals, attestations and clearances are prepared and tracked in-house. Approval decisions belong to the national authorities, and we say so rather than implying guaranteed outcomes.

Guarantee period on placements

If a placed candidate does not complete probation, we replace them at no additional placement fee, under the terms set out in your engagement letter.

Whether it is one specialist or fifty operational hires, the first conversation is the same: what you need, where it is going, and by when.
