FAQs

so, the 4 day working week?

Yes, we know it’s unheard of in Recruitment, but hear us out…

Our sector requires a commitment to longer hours, catching clients/candidates either side of the Atlantic. Our thinking is to absolutely CRUSH the 4 days we have whilst also maintaining a work/life balance (especially for those in our team with young families etc)

Does it mean that we never take calls/meetings on a Friday? Absolutely not!

But it does mean that our team is overall happier, with lower turnover, and fully committed to work without distraction when in the office.

Is the commission structure really that good?

Yes, we truly believe that the benefits of hard work should be shared and so we offer a commission structure comfortably above market rate, with no deductions/thresholds/provisos that you may see elsewhere.

When pairing this with a sector that offers higher salaries (therefore, higher average fees), the earning potential from the outset is fantastic!

Our key values include?

-Discipline & Maturity

-Growth Mindset

-Collaboration

-Interest in The Sector

What type of consultant do you look for?

Our sector’s typical client/candidate is incredibly smart, yet ‘time poor’.

Working with them requires a thorough understanding of the tech/domain, as well as excellent communication skills (both written and verbal) and the ability to Consult/influence with Gravitas.

With this in mind, whilst industry/tech sector experience is a huge bonus, what’s more important to Source Control when looking for new team members is the ability to immerse yourself in your market and become a true expert.

Typically, our team has consisted of Consultants with more ‘life experience’ (even if this is not in Recruitment) but we’re equally interested in experienced Consultants who have different ways of working and whom collaborate closely with the rest of their team.

What Kind of consultant would not suit working for source control?

Source Control is not a generalist Agency, nor a ‘high turnover’ Agency that brings on batches of Rookie Consultants in the hope of some of them being successful…

Each hire is incredibly important to us and therefore we are not looking for those that see Recruitment as “easy money, because their cousin did it once”.

We’re not looking for Recruiters who are easily distracted, that see ‘table tennis’ as an essential perk or who aren’t committed to self-development (either in or out of work).

What kind of trainiing & development can you offer?

Our L&D programme has matured massively over the past 12 months to be a significant part of a Consultant’s week.

In addition to the usual weekly/monthly reviews, we also have invested in Learning Platforms, Onsite Training with Industry Leaders and sessions to get the best from the many Software platforms we use.

We have a collaborative culture that constantly shares the latest industry/tech/client news as well as weekly roundtable sessions sharing ideas/concerns etc.

Some of our highest performing consultants started with no experience in Recruitment, but ALL of them shared responsibility for their own learning!

What Does Progression look like at source control?

We have a clearly defined Progression path that’s openly shared with all Consultants from Resourcer/Junior all the way through to Directorship.

As the Source Control journey continues, this may evolve, but there are ultimately opportunities to build hugely successful markets or develop teams underneath you long-term, depending on your attributes/preferences.

We already have examples of Consultants with no experience who are now at Senior level within 12 months!

What does the interview process look like?

.Our Interview process consists of:

- Informal, introductory conversation with Nathan or Charlie to discuss your situation,motivations and share more information about the roles available – approx. 45 mins
