Why use a Recruitment Consultant?

Recruiting the best Accountancy staff is one of the most crucial areas of a Company's development and ongoing business viability. Failure to invest in this key area can have devastating long-term implications for business of all sizes. Likewise, candidates need to utilise the services of a proven performer in the market to source the best possible opportunities to ensure their careers move in the right direction.

Market Knowledge

The very best consultancies have an in depth understanding and knowledge of the ever changing world of recruitment. In the case of Morgan West, this has been built up over two decades in the specialist Accountancy Recruitment sector with a proven track record of providing market leading services to both clients and candidates.

We pride ourselves on treating each and every client as an individual and tailoring our services to satisfy their specific needs in each given unique situation. Each assignment is different and we act very much as an extension of an organisation's Human Resources function. We gather in depth information and can advise on every facet of the process. Our aim is to maximise the chances of a successful recruitment campaign and we will give advice / guidance on the entire process, ranging from job specification, salary guidance, help with interviews, to negotiating offers and acceptance.

As a candidate, you are safe in the knowledge that Morgan West has a client base ranging from small independent companies to the largest PLC's in the UK. We will give career advice and guide you through the entire recruitment process to ensure you make the right decisions in your search.

Contacts

Morgan West has built a network of contacts over the past two decades in the industry, which are vital to both clients and candidates alike.

We enjoy successful business relationships with key decision makers in the accountancy recruitment market place, ensuring access to the very best jobs and a candidate base second to none. This means we have a quality of candidate available to fill those jobs.

With the quality of service we offer, many candidates utilise our service on an "on-going" basis throughout their careers, ensuring the very best talent is accessible and available.

Negotiations

Negotiations can often be the most difficult part of the process and Morgan West's experienced consultants act as a "buffer" between client and candidate, ensuring the process is handled with tact and in a sympathetic manner in order to maximise the chances of a successful conclusion to the recruitment process.

Discretion

Career minded accountants, particularly those in senior roles, require confidentiality and discretion. Similarly, some employers do not want it to be widely known that they are looking to recruit. Morgan West is trusted, advises and conducts their business with discretion and with total confidentiality.

Time

In the busy world of accountancy, time is money. Hours spent on recruitment by senior managers quickly become very expensive and delays in making new appointments cost not only time and money, but often existing staff morale is affected if workloads increase. It can prove highly cost effective to use Morgan West, as it limits the time spent on recruitment matters by your team and ensures positions are filled as quickly as possible. Talented professionals need a trusted partner to act on their behalf in their career decisions and rely on Morgan West to source appropriate opportunities within their hectic schedules

Feedback

In the event of a negative outcome from an interview, direct feedback can be awkward. It is generally far easier for this to be provided by a Morgan West consultant, saving both the firm and candidate potential embarrassment.

Reach

The reach of Morgan West is significantly greater than any individual employer due to national advertising and in various different media as well as fully utilising a variety of methodologies via the Internet. It gives an employer access to a potentially huge and valuable database of candidates, which has been built up over many years. From a candidate's perspective, Morgan West is able to identify new potential employers, especially for international and confidential in-house roles, which invariably do not reach the normal channels.
