To put it simply, we have a deep knowledge of Business Transformation & Change Solutions, built through

25 years as a leading management consultancy firm and recruitment solutions provider25 years as a leading management consultancy firm and recruitment solutions provider25 years as a leading management consultancy firm and recruitment solutions provider25 years as a leading management consultancy firm and recruitment solutions provider specifically working

within the field of transformation and change.

We gauge our success by the level of results we are able to achieve for our client base and their repeat business.

This philosophy translates into the application of a listening based approach, applied to every recruitment project

we undertake. By opening the door to finding fresh, forward-thinking, and creative resourcing solutions to

complex business transformation problems, we are able to invigorate your existing work force, whilst also

expanding upon your own company’s expertise. We are pragmatic, and not tied to any single pre-planned “One

Size Fits all Approach” to resourcing talent. You will find that our highly skilled and experienced consultants place

greater emphasis on adaptability and delivery, rather than on excuses for not delivering the skills experience and

talent that you need.

Our founding partners are creative problem solvers, execution specialists, and fearless thinkers. They have built

Parkwell to mirror that approach by seeking out consultants who are intelligent, thorough and committed to every

client and candidate. As a whole, we are able provide you with a hand-selected group of exceptional listeners,

who apply their collective knowledge and capabilities to identify your needs and develop the right solutions. Our

The Executive Search Process is both an art and a science as opposed to a formulaic process. It’s all about chemistry,

matchmaking, and selection. To this end we develop powerful, collaborative partnerships with our clients and our

candidates alike, to achieve the best possible results.

We recommend advertising when the market for candidates is broad and the role sufficiently attractive to justify the

investment in advertising space. We actively research the best media (on-line, traditional press & specialist publications)

to deliver the required candidate pool and ensure that our clients’ budgets are spent wisely. Our consultants have a

proven experience in utilising advertising campaigns to deliver both individual candidates and complete teams.

We always evaluate the benefits of utilising your brand or our own to target specific candidate markets. We encourage

our clients to use branded advertisements with powerful copybranded advertisements with powerful copybranded advertisements with powerful copybranded advertisements with powerful copy, as these can promote positive growth promote positive growth promote positive growth promote positive growth and act as an

ensures a high level of response whilst keeping our client’s identity concealed from the public eye.
