Grange Executive Recruitment

Once in a while a company is created that fulfils the need of its market so well that its success is assured from its inception – Grange Executive Recruitment is such a company.

Operating in the highly competitive recruitment services environment with a high volume of job seekers, Grange Executive Recruitment has succeeded and built a strong client base of established businesses by focusing on the provision of recruitment solutions that meet the needs of its clients today and in to the future.

Grange Executive Recruitment was established to provide quality recruitment services to commerce, industry and public enterprises. It decided early in its development that its recruitment focus would be on recruitment assignments for middle and senior management level executives in a range of functional areas including Sales and Marketing, Finance and Accounting, Manufacturing Operations and General Management.

Grange Executive Recruitment will accept recruitment assignments at other levels or other areas where its expertise can add value to those assignments.

Grange Executive Recruitment has the capability to undertake national (local and interstate) and international recruitment assignments, using its own resources or alliances with top end recruiting

organisations that employ the same level of ethics and methods as those employed by us and is appreciated by our clients.

Grange Executive Recruitment is a total service provider of recruitment solutions. This includes candidate profiling and testing, reference checking, advertising and searched recruitment. Your consultant will be happy to hear of any specific requirements you may have for a recruitment assignment and will be happy to advise on the best recruitment method for any situation.

Our Commitment to our Clients

At Grange Executive Recruitment we have built our reputation on our integrity, reliability and high ethical standards. Our commitment is to maintain our high standards in dealing with all of our clients.

We aim to provide the highest possible service with regular consultation with our clients while maintaining the level of confidentiality expected by our clients and candidates.

We will advise our clients on the most appropriate method for candidate searches ranging from Executive Selection to Executive Search or a combination of both.

Executive Selection involves the use of strategically placed advertisements and database search. This method works best where the aim is to capture as wide a field of candidates as possible within recruitment specifications.

Executive Search is used to target individuals that meet the recruitment criteria but are not actively seeking a change of employment. Confidentiality and discretion are the characteristics of this recruitment process which usually targets specialist skills and capabilities.

Our Service

We use “best practice” methods to find the most suitable people for our clients. We focus on providing the ideal match between our clients'' expectations and our candidates' abilities and experience. We add value by taking a long-term view on our candidate recommendations so that our clients' immediate and long-term needs are satisfied.

We aim to build long-term partnerships with our clients and work on exclusive and repeat assignments based on the result produced by us.

We have the capacity and the experience to serve a broad range of industries, such as Service Sector industries including finance and banking and IT, Manufacturing and Engineering, Construction, Wholesale Distribution and Utilities.

Our Methodology

Our success has been based on the consistent use of our methodology for all our recruitment assignments. It is our quality control measure, and your assurance, that our recommendations come after a rigorous process designed to select the best-fit candidate for your needs.

Assignment brief

The success of the recruitment process is governed by the initial briefing meeting between our client and us. In this brief we will obtain the necessary job specifications to allow us to proceed with our search on your behalf. We aim to get a very good understanding of your business and the position fit, the organisation's culture, the skills and capabilities required from the successful candidate and any other characteristics we should be aware of.

Advertising and database matching

We have interviewed many candidates for other positions in other organisations and we will review our database to ascertain if we already have a qualified candidate who may meet our clients' current needs. Should we find such a person, we will seek approval from that person first before putting him or her forward as a candidate for you to consider.

The objective of advertising is to cast as wide a net as possible to capture the best candidate for the job. We will write the advertising copy for your approval and recommend appropriate placement in print and/or electronic media for your sign-off.

Candidate Interviews

We will interview a range of candidates who meet the requirements as outlined in the assignment brief.

We use competency based behavioural interviewing technique. This is a proven method to elicit candidates' capabilities for performing the functions of the role for which they are being considered based on experience acquired in other roles undertaken by them. The interview is a structured process in which a candidate's performance and skills can be measured against an accurate job profile designed after the assignment brief .

Behavioural Profiling (optional)

As an additional service to clients, candidates can be assessed using On-line Assessment which considers a candidate in terms of their abilities, interests, motivation, personality, and working characteristics. This is a powerful tool which significantly increases the potential of making an excellent recruitment decision .

Short Listing

Grange Executive Recruitment will only short list candidates who have demonstrated, through the interview process, that they have the capabilities sought and also fit other client criteria discussed during the assignment brief.

The shortlist provided to clients always includes the candidates' own resume and a detailed, objective, briefing on each candidate that reflects on the candidates' performance and information gathered at the interview. On acceptance of the shortlist by the client, we will arrange interviews with candidates at a mutually convenient time. These interviews can be conducted either in our offices or the client's premises.

Reference Checking

We believe that reference checking is one of the most important steps in the recruitment process. Our growing reputation in the recruitment industry is, to a large extent, due to our efforts in obtaining information about the candidate that is meaningful and adds to the body of knowledge already gathered about the candidate. We provide detailed reports on all reference checks undertaken.

Candidate Offer

Based on the information gathered, the client will be in a position to make an objective selection of the best person for the job. Grange Executive Recruitment will be happy to guide clients in the selection process in order to arrive at the best possible recruitment decision for the circumstances.

Following selection, Grange Executive Recruitment will make a job offer to the preferred candidate on instruction from the client (this includes direction on remuneration to be offered). Grange will act as an intermediary on any subsequent negotiations that may take place before acceptance of the offer.

Upon acceptance of the offer, we will advise the client on the proper documentation to confirm the terms of appointment and commencement date.
