Recruitment Delivery Without Agency Fees
Fixed-fee recruitment delivery that helps growing businesses, charities and HR consultants hire with confidence.
Hiring the right person is one of the most important decisions any organisation makes. But running a successful recruitment process takes time—from writing adverts and screening CVs to coordinating interviews and managing offers.
Neon & Co provides practical recruitment delivery that helps you attract, assess and appoint the right people without paying traditional agency percentage fees.
Whether you need a full recruitment campaign, help with a specific stage or simply an independent review of your current process, Neon & Co can help.
Fixed Fee Recruitment
Traditional recruitment agencies typically charge 15–25% of a candidate's salary.
For many businesses, this can quickly add up to several thousand pounds for a single hire.
Neon & Co offers fixed-fee recruitment support, meaning you know exactly what you're paying from the start.
My focus is always on running a structured recruitment process that finds the right person for your business, rather than charging a percentage of the salary.
