Supporting local communities

We believe in giving back to the regions we serve. As part of our commitment to corporate social responsibility, a portion of our recruitment fee is reinvested in local communities through a donation to a charity of your choice. This means every successful hire not only strengthens your team but also contributes to the well-being of the wider community.

I wanted to thank you for the excellent way in which you handled the DVC Commercial recruitment process. Well done on such an excellent job and I look forward to working with you again on forthcoming appointments.

Vice-Chancellor

The rigorous analysis of EDI data highlighted key areas where underrepresented groups face disadvantages. Their genuine commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion ensures that their strategies are not just procedural but are inspired by a true belief in creating a fair and inclusive workplace for all.

Justine Gillespie

JG Consulting

My experience was very positive, and the process was well managed, particularly when compared to other recruitment firms. I immediately felt that they cared and genuinely wanted to find the best possible candidate.
