Our Story
At Jarvis King, we are pioneers in the science of selection, working exclusively within the construction, engineering, scientific, and technical sectors. We've been connecting talented people and organisations for over two decades. Our expertise lies in the technical and scientific industries, recruiting from top-level board positions to high-volume personnel. Our mission is to become a strategic partner to our clients, focusing on finding and developing future leaders rather than just responding to industry-wide "panic and hire" scenarios.
How We Work
At Jarvis King, our approach is unique. We don't just recruit, we build relationships. We take the time to understand our clients' needs, gathering intelligence and building trust. Our expertise in technical sectors means we know the value of data, so we make everything measurable, accountable, and objective. We demonstrate our methods, showing you exactly how we reached our recommendations. This is how we turn selection into a science.
Our Areas of Expertise
We specialise in the following areas:
Energy & Utilities
Engineering
Science & Pharmaceutical
Why We're Different
Forget everything you know about recruiters. We didn't start in HR, our people come from the same technical backgrounds you do. Having held senior positions in science and tech industries, we know how they work and who runs them. We don't just find candidates, we work with the same organisations and job seekers again and again, supporting businesses and developing careers.
How We Can Help You
Whether you're an employer or a potential candidate, we're here to help. We'll assist jobseekers in advancing their careers, finding new and exciting opportunities. Our job is to understand your needs, to build relationships, and to make informed decisions.
Our Approach
We spend more time on each assignment than other recruitment firms, approximately 40% more. This extra research and effort results in a better match, every time. We work closely with our clients, understanding their needs, and finding the right candidates.
Our Promise
We're not just looking for a quick fix, we're in it for the long haul. We want to support your business, your career, and your goals. We're not just recruiters, we're partners.
