Our Solutions

360 SEARCH AND PLACE

We work on a retained basis to manage the entire search process in order to source high-level talent for our clients. Each search is tailored to the business needs and role requirements. Our searches range from discreet and confidential to advertised search. No matter what the approach, we operate to a high-level, the best outcome and service to our clients is guaranteed.

During each search we will provide you with regular updates and full transparency. We will agree on the best methods to identify the talent our clients may not be able to reach. This can be a combination of research, networks and advertising.

All candidates are treated to a high-level experience, they will be provided briefing packs for the position and an outline of the process they will be engaging in. We will provide you with a shortlist of high-level qualified talent who have been meticulously assessed and are engaged in the search process.

You will receive reports and insights into each shortlisted candidate through our assessment process and we will have each candidate provide a self assessment as to why and how they fit the position to the highest level. Throughout the interview process we will manage everything for you and can be available to sit in on interviews should you require. We will provide all feedback to successful and unsuccessful candidates and manage the offer process to secure the high-level talent you are looking for.

It doesn’t stop there, once we have placed your new high-level candidate we keep in touch to ensure that all is working well. We have absolute confidence in our search process and therefore we provide a six month guarantee on all candidates placed.

TALENT MAPPING

We partner with corporate businesses and consulting firms to provide research and talent mapping solutions. Due to the flexible partnering options we offer we can tailor a partial search solution to best support your executive recruitment or succession planning needs.

Why Choose Talent Mapping?
Talent Mapping is all about employment preparation and the business being “future ready” rather than waiting for the contract to be awarded, an internal promotion or for someone to resign.

How Talent Mapping Works
Talent Mapping works by Identifying an industry’s high flyers and rising stars e.g. Project Managers, General Managers, Construction Managers, Engineers etc. We can merely provide a map or make contact with them and gain an understanding of what they are looking for in their next role.

The next stage of the talent map is individual profiling, where we create profiles for these individuals then provide you with an Idea of potential talent before they are required, giving your business the confidence to grow. Talent Mapping is a proactive and future ready approach that also provides our clients with valuable information on the market conditions and competitor activity. Our Talent Mapping offering provides our clients the edge on their competition.

TALENT MAPPING AND APPROACH

We partner with internal recruitment teams and recruitment consulting firms to provide Talent Mapping and Approach support where they do not have the capability or resources.

After we have mapped the market for high-level talent we contact potential candidates and discuss the opportunity. We then provide applications of interested candidates to be included in the search process.

SCREEN AND SHORTLIST

For our clients who have advertised for a position receiving an overwhelming response we offer a screen and shortlist service. Having us screen and shortlist for you takes the leg work out of the recruitment process which many clients do not have the time or resources to do at a high-level.

What our clients and candidates have to say….

John Searls

I have had support from Brooke and Archer Talent Partners on the recruitment of several critical senior roles over the past few years. Her networks into the Engineering and Asset Intensive Infrastructure industries have enabled her to provide impressive and diverse shortlists for consideration, and she has maintained communication and quick follow-up throughout the process.

My overall experience with Brooke Archer of Archer Talent Partners was very positive and engaging. Brooke provided consistent, timely updates and honest feedback throughout the interview preparation, through to Contract for Employment. As a previous hiring manager for senior leadership positions across the rail and transport sector, I would highly recommend Brooke to manage the interface on future recruitment of senior leadership positions’.

I have engaged Brooke over the last ten years to appoint Senior Operations Leaders into the business, during this time, my experience has been extremely positive. Brooke has taken time to understand our business and its culture to match candidates that best fit. She has been very successful in helping us grow our business by providing talented people for many senior operational roles. I would not hesitate in recommending Brooke to any prospective client.

Vanessa Hoey

I first met Brooke Archer 10 years ago when she was engaged to recruit a Senior Leader within One Rail Australia. It was during this time, I realised she was far more than a recruiter and possessed the tenaciousness and ability to perform extensive targeted searches for suitable candidates. Brooke’s approach to search has consistently resulted in high-quality candidates that were ideally matched to the requirements of the role. Brooke has been successful in placing a number of Senior and Executive roles.

A stand out in her field, Brooke has the unique ability to understand not only the requirements of the role but more importantly, the cultural fit required. She invests time in getting to know the business and those within the business which enables her to deliver high-quality candidates that fit within the organisation, resulting in a win-win for both One Rail Australia and the successful candidate. This success has resulted in a long term partnership between One Rail Australia and Brooke.

Tony Carmichael

Brooke Archer of Archer Talent Partners recruited me into my current position as a Global Leader within a large international engineering and advisory firm. Whilst the process took some time to conclude due to both employer and potential employee seeking to ensure a good alignment of aspirations and work design, I never felt anxious about where things were up to and what was being expected of me. Brooke was incredibly professional and responsive, and it is why I am now using her services to recruit staff for me.
