Everything we do is about setting up your consultancy for long-term success, whether you ask us to recruit one role or to deliver a full people strategy.
We will take a holistic view of your business and strategic goals. Our integrated approach will equip you with the insights, tools and processes to attract, reward and retain the people you need.
Target Organisation Design
Understanding what roles you will need in your business one, two and three years from now is a powerful insight. We can help you transition to a structure that will future proof your business.
Market Insight and Benchmarking
Building a consulting business is no small task and competitor analysis often falls to the bottom of the to-do list. Our market knowledge and extensive research and benchmarking capability will provide you with customised reports and recommendations.
Employer Branding and Recruitment Process Optimisation
As a smaller consultancy in a market dominated by big firms with established brands, attracting top talent can be a challenge. We’ll build your employer brand and recruitment capability so you can compete more effectively.
Reward and Retention Strategy
Finding great people is futile if they don’t stick around. We’ll help you put in place the strategy and processes to motivate and retain your best people.
Resource Management
As your business grows more rapidly, balancing your sales pipeline with your recruitment activity becomes more of a challenge. We’ll design and implement the processes you need to manage resourcing more effectively as you scale.
End-to-End Recruitment Process Management
Hiring the right people for your consultancy is crucial to your long-term success, yet many parts of the recruitment process can be a huge and unnecessary drain on management time. Working as part of your team, we manage all aspects of the recruitment process from role design through to onboarding.
“New Minds delivered an exceptional graduate recruitment process for us. They worked tirelessly to give the candidates the best possible experience, managing it seamlessly from start to finish. The insight and advice they brought was invaluable, as well as their dedication to making the process a success. It really felt like they were part of our team and they did a brilliant job of conveying what makes Oaklin so special. A big thanks for all the support and a superb outcome.”
Ben Parsons, Partner, Oaklin
“New Minds quickly became our partner of choice when searching for top calibre consultants – we really consider them an extension of our own team. They worked closely with us to really understand what we were looking for, and crucially the type of person that would complement our specific organisation. The whole team are a pleasure to work with and they’ve found us some fantastic consultants that are delivering great results for our clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”
Matthew Beattie, Managing Director and Co-Founder, Beyond FS
“New Minds have been a real catalyst to Gate One sharpening our EVP and achieving better, faster results in strategic resourcing. Their vast knowledge of the consultancy sector – while working at pace, empathy with a deft personal touch – is a rare and priceless combination in our sector. The New Minds partnership has become a huge asset to our business.”
Simon Dennis, Partner, Gate One
“From the very first meeting where Caroline listened, questioned us and challenged our beliefs on the role we wanted to hire, it was clear that New Minds were driven to truly understand our needs rather than just “fill a role”. Throughout the whole process the team were responsive, never afraid to widen the search and provided genuine input into the decision making process.”
Kate Lander, CEO, Ivy House
“We began working with the New Minds team this year to help us expand the team proactively. It has been a big emotional commitment but it soon became very apparent that it’s not actually a “recruitment fee” , it’s proactive consultancy support every step of the way. Understanding our needs and specialisms in more and more detail as the process progressed, leading us proactively through the whole process with expertise and helpful guidance. This resulted in some great candidates to consider and two new team members.”
Paul Frith, Director, Rubica
“Working with Mark from New Minds felt more like having an internal talent partner than working with an external company. Mark made a real effort to understand our company, employee proposition, and the roles that we were looking to hire, offering challenge and advice throughout the process. The result was that we attracted interest in the roles from some very strong candidates, filling the two positions with people who will make a real difference to the company. “
Tristan Colgate, Managing Director, Fidenda
