What you can expect
We recruit for contract, permanent and interim roles, working with candidates at every stage of their careers and with organisations of every size and location, across the public, private and not-for-profit sectors.
A contract brief is taken by a consultant from your discipline, who works from an established network, CRM data and off market contacts rather than advertising alone, and keeps close to your HR and VMS processes so the pace holds.
Where a search has stalled, we will tell you why. For a Hampshire authority that had tried for over six months to appoint a contract Environmental Protection Officer, reframing the brief to the market put an experienced officer in post within three weeks.
Once your contractor starts
- Timesheets. You approve them in Oyster Time, our timesheet portal. Your log in arrives by automated email from a no-reply address, so check your junk folder if it has not reached you.
- Holidays. Tell your Oyster consultant and your contractor, so a second approver can sign off timesheets while you are away.
- Passwords and PO numbers. Email accounts.group@oysterpartnership.com for a reset, or with a PO number to apply to your invoices.
- Anything else. Call us on 0207 766 9000.
