Permanent Recruitment Finding permanent staff in any industry can be very challenging and takes a huge amount of skill and knowledge. Not only do your new recruits need to have the right qualifications, vertical market experience and skills, but they must also have the right mindset for the job they are to undertake, and the company culture they will be joining.

At WRS we pride ourselves on sourcing, selecting and shortlisting not only those candidates with the skills you need to get the job done, but also the people with the right attitude to ensure that the work is completed in a timely and professional manner, every time.

WRS listen to your exact requirements so when you work with us, you can rest assured that our specialist teams have the expertise and knowledge to find the talent others can’t.

We reference-check all of our candidates prior to submission to ensure that their career history will truly benefit your project and organisation. We also decipher each candidate’s long-term career aspirations and motivations to ensure their values and goals match those of both the role and the company, giving you with a long-term employee who can grow as your company does.

When you assign WRS to find the right people to fill your permanent position, you will receive a shortlist of pre-qualified candidates who will give you the dedication your company deserves. We have an enormous pool of talented and dedicated people who are waiting to fill roles worldwide, and we constantly headhunt to find new talent.

We will only present you with contract employees who are fully capable and available to work. We interview and reference-check all of our contractors before we put you into contact with them, so you don’t waste time interviewing people who don’t have the right skills to do the job.

We have a huge bank of existing, talented and well-qualified contractors with whom we have worked in the past. This means we are often able to immediately fill positions as they arise.
