WHY VIVID?
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
WHY VIVID? VIVID RESOURCING WAS FOUNDED AS THE
FROM OUR DIRECTOR Founding Vivid Resourcing amidst the global financial crisis of 2008, we faced a series of unprecedented challenges. That we are today able to present to you a positive story of rapid, global growth makes me extremely proud. I’m of the belief that it was this difficult climate which made us the company we are. Faced with a competitive marketplace Vivid Resourcing met the challenge head-on, offering unprecedented levels of educated, specialist service to candidates and clients across the globe. We look forward to working with you.
Charlie Walker Founder/Managing Director of Vivid Resourcing
ANTIDOTE TO THE CORPORATE, MANAGED SERVICE APPROACH TO RECRUITMENT. Within our first six years Vivid Resourcing has grown from one staff member to a multi-location operation, supplying services to over fifty countries. We are the fastest growing technology recruitment company in Europe, often doubling our turnover year upon year since formation – clearly we are doing something right both in terms of personnel and philosophy. In addition to our numerous national and international awards, over ninety-two per cent of Vivid Resourcing clients have used our services on more than one occasion since 2008. We endeavour to bridge the typical difference between the expectations and reality of recruitment consultancy, providing excellent service levels and specialist industry knowledge rather than empty rhetoric. For many of our clients and candidates, Vivid Resourcing are their only recruitment partner and representative. Our comprehensive approach to recruitment provides a reliable, superior alternative to stale RPO solutions. If this interests you – and we hope that it does – contact us to arrange a call, meeting or consultation.
GUIDING OUR APPROACH Our success is founded upon four guiding principles:
1
Genuine technical understanding of our markets.
2
Attention to candidate care
3
Employment of motivated, intelligent and professionally-trained consultants
4
Unrivalled tenacity in sourcing the best candidates globally

CORPORATE CLIENTS.
2.
Every candidate is important to us. We get to know the person behind the CV – to forge a relationship that will last well beyond the initial placement.
‘‘
Vivid Resourcing are dedicated to the long-term with every placement. Ideally our consultancy will lead to an enduring, successful role for each candidate, but this is not always possible. Contractor arrangements and duration-based contracts naturally come to a conclusion, but a candidate’s relationship with Vivid doesn’t have to end there. We believe a recruitment process without attention to candidate care is incomplete. As part of our service we endeavour to be transparent, honest and proactive with all of our candidates, and we believe our clients benefit equally from this. High service levels for both clients and candidates results in quality, lasting relationships across the board.
COMPLIANCE AND PAYROLL
HERE’S WHAT SOME OF OUR CANDIDATES HAVE SAID ABOUT US… I have been working with Vivid for a long time and the experience all along has been very promising. In December 2011 when I decided to make my foray into the software contracting world, I flipped through many recruitment consultancies around London. Vivid proposed to me a brilliant opportunity with Pace and I haven't had to make a second thought.

OUR SKILLS AND SECTORS
The universal nature of the IT sector, combined with its specific disciplines and specialities warrants a fine-tuned recruitment service. Each position within IT comes with its own particular language and terminology, so technical understanding is essential. This requirement for detailed understanding leads us to base our recruitment process upon an internal development programme. Similar to the training and consultancy work that takes place within IT, we focus on fully educating our staff and implementing best practices specific to the industry from day one. A highly technical sector requires an equally technical recruitment consultant.
Our database of over 600,000 candidates and many clients looking to hire means our specialist recruiters can tailor our search closely to your industry sector to find an exceptional solution. Each of our sectors are central to the global economy and we are proud of our contribution to the mobility of the best contractors and permanent staff. We place Energy workers who help power our planet and Pharmaceutical scientists who better human welfare. We also help expert Engineers who shape the world and skilful IT staff who provide crucial support. We work with the people who make modern innovations possible.
We understand that no two IT positions are identical. Variables in software, hardware, scale and project methodology represent substantial challenges. Company culture is of equal importance. We enjoy speaking with our clients to determine their ideal solution in terms of personnel and philosophy.

The Energy sector provides an essential service. Its complexities, scale and technological requirements need an informed recruitment solution with worldwide reach. At Vivid Resourcing, our Energy‐focused consultants are trained on both technical aspects and detailed industry trends by qualified specialists. Having an in-depth understanding of the sector and its procedures is important. It allows us to discuss every role on a more informed level, with both clients and candidates. Since founding our initial office in London, we have looked to extend our borders. We have since made partnerships with companies all over the planet, and have opened bases in Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Wilmslow. From individual vacancies to staffing whole departments and operations, we have worked throughout Western Europe, the Middle East and all other major regions of the sector. Our network also extends our knowledge from sector specifics into international compliance, payroll and tax laws. Far from being limited job‐fillers, we consult on the entire recruitment process.

ENERGY SECTOR
ENGINEERING Innovative Engineering is behind the majority of human development and expansion. The intricacies of the Engineering industry require a different type of recruitment. Whilst each role is distinctive in its requirements, our in-depth internal development programme helps our expert consultants fully grasp every position. These detailed, technical insights into the sector allow our dedicated Engineering team to see beyond the words of the job description and apply their knowledge to finding the best possible candidate for every role. Vivid Resourcing are focused on results. By knowing the nuances of the industry, we are able to fit roles with assured quality, rather than tick them off with haste. It’s no coincidence that over 96% of our placements stretch far past their initial probationary periods. Our senior members have amassed well over ten years of experience in engineering recruitment and our specialism shows. At Vivid Resourcing, we believe there is a discrepancy between what clients require and what recruitment agencies traditionally offer. By investing in our consultants, our network and our collective knowledge we are able to offer a superior service.

The Pharmaceutical sector’s journey from initial development to global distribution includes many staff in several varied careers. The surrounding laws, complications and scientific jargon necessitate a unique breed of recruitment. Our dedicated pharma recruitment team have been educated on the sector by qualified industry experts. This adds a layer of technical insight to our consultancy and allows us to do more with vacancies than just push candidates at them. Our consultants go beyond simply plugging gaps. Having recognised the enormous scale of the Pharmaceutical market, at Vivid Resourcing we have invested heavily in securing worldwide networks within the sector. We have established a significant partnership in South Africa, and handled vacancies from entry-level to PHD-qualified white collar professionals along the way. By understanding the fine details of every role we handle, our in-depth screening process means our staff are able to find the best candidate, rather than an adequate one.
