ounder & MD Neil Holloway founded Wilson Brook in December 2018, having started in recruitment back in 2000 because he had a vision as to how executive search and professional recruitment should be done.
He says: “I realised that the responsibility of helping people’s careers (and, by extension, their families), and ensuring companies can recruit the best people, should be done in the most thorough, professional, honest, and fair way possible.
Not a dash for cash, mud on the wall, cutting corners, KPI- focused, uncaring approach that others seem fixated on. I am passionate about delivering exceptional service to our customers, both companies and individuals alike. I believe that our process is unbeatable whilst our commercial proposition is unique. • Confidential proactive search (head-hunting) - to identify those high-calibre “passive” individuals. We don’t rely on databases, job boards, LinkedIn or advertising to find candidates. NDAs in force where required • Proven method of approach – We help you meet candidates who would not normally respond to recruiters or explore an opportunity • Regular and clear communication – true collaboration with scheduled update calls, added-value information, including competitor analysis, market intelligence, salary and benefit survey • Defined process - including face-to-face briefing, interviewing and short-list presentation along with a detailed search report and full reference checking • In-depth research – to ensure we identify the best people, scouring the market leaving no stone unturned. We don’t cut corners, outsource research or only use LinkedIn!
