Talent management consulting & intelligence

Powering your talent decisions

Your talent is your biggest asset. And usually the biggest cost. It’s why getting talent strategy right, and using data-driven insights to enhance this can give you a competitive edge.

We provide the insights and expertise you need to inform your talent strategy and help you to answer tricky talent questions with confidence. And our data-led, innovative approach makes sure we’re helping you to make informed decisions to drive your business forward.

Let’s talk about how we can help with your leadership and talent management challenges.

Get in touch

A data-driven approach with a human touch

 

At a time when so many confuse convenience for competence, we won’t settle for a one-click, one-size-fits-all solution. We know when to use data tools and when to collect real-time insight by speaking to the market. And when to combine the two.

This blend of tools and intelligence gathering conversations gives you accurate, actionable insights and clear, concise recommendations. The result? Smart, trusted, talent decisions that take your people and business where they want to be.

When talent intelligence can help

Our clients are as varied as the talent challenges they’re facing. Regardless of size, sector or specialism, they come to us for actionable insights when they need to:

  • Benchmark their business against the rest of the market in terms of salary, reward, talent, strategies or best practice
  • Access a wider talent pool, including niche skill sets or greater diversity
  • Enter a new market, a different location or access different talent pools.

Whatever talent question you’re facing, we’ve got the tools, team and proven techniques, to help you tackle it.

Our talent intelligence services

There are three core strands to our talent intelligence offering: talent insight, talent pooling and talent research. You can find out more about each service below.

Talent insight

Talent insight is about using data and market intelligence to inform business decisions.

Sometimes this is to inform a future decision, to prove a point of view or to uncover new information.

We can help you with:

  • Competitor analysis
  • Brand perceptions
  • Diversity & inclusion analysis
  • Talent pool analysis
  • Pay & reward benchmarking
  • Location analysis

We provide data-led insights, but we also focus on the “so what?” and help you to work out what your next steps should be.

Talent pooling

Maybe your organisation is taking too long to tap into the talent pipeline and missing out on the people it needs? Or maybe you are facing repeated demands to hire within the same job family?

Talent pooling can help. By taking a proactive approach and nurturing a warm pool of talent, you can reduce the time to hire and increase the opportunity to recruit multiple candidates at no extra cost.

We can help you with:

  • Building talent pools
  • Making multiple hires in the same job family
  • Succession planning
  • Proactive recruitment
  • Engaging candidates on an ongoing basis

TALENT RESEARCH

When you have an immediate vacancy you need to fill or a new role has been created in your business, you need to make sure no stone is left unturned to find not just any person but the right person. The same goes for senior hires or those with specialist skillsets. Our confidential and comprehensive talent research can help. We can help you with:

  • Understanding the market or role that you need to hire in
  • Talent mapping
  • Niche talent identification
  • Talent benchmarking
  • Using research to understand where things have gone wrong and solving the problem

Whatever route we take and whoever you choose to hire, we prioritise the candidate experience: peer-to-peer, personal and professional. We understand the importance of process too. By focusing on the people and the process, we’re protecting your employer brand every step of the way.

After all, when you’re hiring, it’s all about getting to the best talent, not just the available talent.
