Included with every engagement
What You Can Expect Across Both Packages
Partnership Bolt-Ons
Some programmes need more structure. Others need better visibility in the market. A few need both. Our partnership bolt-ons are designed to strengthen delivery without overcomplicating it.
Full SLA
Clarity that holds under pressure
A full service level agreement sets clear expectations on both sides. Agreed KPIs, defined response times, a fixed contract period, and named contacts remove uncertainty and keep accountability clean.
Microsite on Our Website
A clearer view for candidates
We can build a dedicated microsite within our platform that showcases your organisation and live vacancies. It gives candidates context before conversations begin and helps position your business properly in a competitive market.
Custom Video Pre Interviews
Early insight, fewer surprises
Candidates record short video responses to three to five questions set by you. These are shared alongside the CV, giving early visibility of communication style, confidence, and role understanding.
Annual Salary Benchmarking
Grounded market perspective
Once a year, we provide salary band insights for pre selected roles. These are based on screened candidates, live vacancies, and completed placements.
Quarterly Management Report
A wider lens on performance
Our quarterly reports provide more than activity numbers. They include application and shortlist data, diversity metrics, time taken between steps, conversion ratios, and salary reporting.
Candidate Exclusivity
Focus where it matters
Where agreed, candidates submitted are held exclusively for a fourteen day period. This gives clients space to engage properly, reduces competing offers, and creates a more considered process.
Industry Insights
Context beyond your own programme
Clients receive access to the Clear newsletter, sharing industry updates, hiring trends, and observations drawn from live mandates across data centers, controls, commissioning, and OEM environments.
Additional and Branded Marketing
Sharper visibility in the market
Roles can be promoted with branded advertising across the Clear portfolio, including the option to name your organisation. For priority hires, additional budget can be applied to increase exposure.
Specialist Recruitment for Mission-Critical Projects
Clear works exclusively in data centers, power, and cooling which means we know your roles, your timelines, and your market better than generalists ever could. If you have a hiring challenge, we're ready to help.
