What makes GCN Talent different?

We are not a typical recruitment ‘agency’. We are not large enough to work with everyone and we intentionally don’t recruit for a high volume of vacancies at any one time. We work with businesses that want to benefit from our access to extensive networks of event specialists, our links to the Global Conference Network – and our own experience of working within the industry.

Our model of only working on a small number of assignments at any one time means that you can be certain your vacancy will receive the attention it needs and that you will get the service you deserve.

Our longevity in the sector and level of industry contacts means that we are best-placed to fulfil assignments up to the most senior level.

The team at GCN talent are always one of the ‘must-calls’ when recruiting. The reason I like to work with them is that they take time to get to know our needs, and only put forward well-researched and briefed candidates which has led to a number of appointments. I am happy to highly recommend them.

I had the pleasure of speaking with GCN Talent when I needed someone who really understood where I was at that time.

I would happily recommend GCN Talent to anyone looking for the right move.

GCN Talent are fearless recruiters who very quickly got to grips with the complexities of our market place and the specific requirements of the role we were looking to fill. They left no stone unturned in their search for the perfect candidate and I relied on them to save me time by thoroughly screening all potential interviewees before they referred them to me. Their results have been great and we’re really happy with the senior level people they have helped bring into our business.

I have loved and enjoyed working with GCN Talent over the years. Not only are they one of the most resilient headhunters I have met in my career, but also an incredible pleasure to work with from a personality point of view. They are one of those headhunters that will not stop until they get what you are looking for, really a great recruitment partner to have for any job you may require to hire for. I recommend very highly!
