Current recruitment market outlook Nov / Dec 2021: 'Frothy'
Lots of candidates chasing an increasing amount of vacancies. Companies seem hesitant in making decisions and often are opting for the 'safe bet'. Candidates are sometimes increasingly in danger of missing out on high quality opportunities by being 'aloof' and 'hard to get' in the mistaken belief that it will increase their value in what is superficially a bouyant and candidate-driven market.
Hardly surprising after 18 months of pandemic. We believe more 'business as usual' conditions will resume in the new year when we think the market will settle down.

About Ashridge
Unique Approach
Ashridge was founded by Tom Holloway, Sian Ellis and Richard Pearson. Having built up experience within the recruitment sector, the founders wanted to provide a more focused recruitment service to companies and candidates alike.
At Ashridge Executive Search, our bespoke recruitment approach means that all clients are treated individually. We put together recruitment roadmaps to meet your needs.
Effective, high quality and focused recruitment
Each recruitment assignment is handled using tried and tested best practice methods. We aim to take the delay out of recruitment. We are normally able to provide a screened, properly quantified and telephone interviewed shortlist within a week of instruction.
Senior leadership roles - £75k+
We are multi sector in our recruitment, but with a particular emphasis on IT, the digital economy, financial services, manufacturing and industrial sectors. Additionally, our UK Director Tom Holloway has developed specialist expertise in working with private equity investors to recruit the right teams for their businesses. Typically our recruitment is multi sector and multi functional, but tends to be for senior leadership executive roles of £75k and over.
Treating candidates as individuals
Unlike many recruiters, we never play 'the numbers game'. We firmly believe that each candidate is an individual and should be treated as such. We are open, approachable and accessible. We believe in treating candidates fairly and never lose sight of the fact that recruitment is a people business, not a numbers process.
Our main areas of recruitment expertise are:
• Search/headhunting 'the tap on the shoulder'
• Candidate database search
• Advertised selection, including managing ad response
• Non-Executive Director / Trustee recruitment
Ashridge is dedicated and diligent in meeting the requirements of all equal opportunities regulations and we aim to be at the forefront of best practice in recruitment.
