Deploy is building towards a world-class operation known for its reliability, delivery, and innovation. Going into our 15th year of trading, our vision is to become the go-to consultancy for infrastructure and technology recruitment and to positively impact the efficiency, safety, compliance, and working practices of projects globally across the Infrastructure and Technology sectors. We do this by strategically sourcing and matching niche, skilled individuals, designing quality solutions, and long-term collaboration. That is the What and How part. You are, of course, interested in the Why. Why should you keep reading on and apply to join the Deploy team? Well, for a start, we are independently owned, and everyone from the owner down is from a recruitment background and has come through the ranks from resourcer upwards. As an independently owned company, we can adapt quickly to opportunities. Deploy has a grown-up and mature attitude towards our team. We’re considered consistent, practical and proactive. We’re friendly and can have a laugh, but we take our job seriously, so we know when and where we can push the boundaries. We speak with respect to everyone we work with internally and externally. There is no such thing as a bad idea, and we don't know everything, so the more we can learn from and implement from those within, the better. We are continually investing in and improving our recruitment software. We want to improve our processes and ways of working to make it faster and easier for our clients and candidates to get results. Our tech stack includes Bullhorn, Source Breaker, LinkedIn Recruiter, Signal, 8x8, and Zoominfo. These are the core systems that work with others in our ecosystem. Our commission/bonus schemes are based not only on individual performance but also on the growth of the team and those around you, learning from your experience to enable them to serve the company better. The commission is also uncapped. We encourage learning and personal growth by attending and engaging with The Recruitment Network events. We look to upskill our people via the Apprenticeship route, which has no age limit and means what you learn can be used within the business. We actively support various charities and volunteer to raise awareness and much-needed funds. These include The Lighthouse Club Charity and MCR Pathways. As a team, we put on golf days, mentored students in schools, ran marathons and attended various charity functions. We encourage the group to engage and enjoy this while helping others.
