Search has traditionally been viewed as an elite process and generally only applied to very senior positions. EUROPA consultants have operated in this sector for over ten years and apply the same methodology to a wider set of job descriptions and equally importantly with a fee structure that beats standard ‘’database driven’ consultancies.

Essentially search offers a more proactive service. We undertake to identify candidates within competitive or related organisations and make direct contact with them via the telephone - faster and more cheaply. These candidates are generally settled, well regarded and over-achieving; they tend not to register with traditional recruitment agencies and are therefore inaccessible to the recruitment marketplace. Though not originally seeking a move an approach from ourselves can be flattering and therefore prompts consideration of your opportunity.
There are a number of benefits to this candidate attraction methodology:
Search is ideally suited to niche or difficult to fill roles.
By definition we approach only the stronger candidates.
Your company remains anonymous until you decide.
Candidates agreeing to an approach tend to be more committed.
Candidates are not generally available to the market.
Search can gain results much sooner than advertising
