the BeNefits Of WORKiNg With us
Parachute SAS offer a contingency based recruitment service whereby we are only paid once a candidate has been successfully placed within your company. This is the way we like it. If we don’t perform you don’t pay.
We will provide a detailed search of our database and other resources available to find the right candidate for a vacancy. Before any candidates are submitted we make sure that they closely match the details given by the client. We have a large database of skilled, experienced professionals and our commitment is to fill your vacancy with the very best candidate.

Parachute SAS can offer both a retained service or our contingency service. We also offer a managed advertising campaign. Get in touch with us for more details.
Parachute SAS are able to act as a fully ‘outsourced’ recruitment arm of your organisation and conduct a recruitment process on your behalf. The recruitment process is tailored to meet your organisation’s specific needs, through detailed consultation and constant communication with you, the client. Parachute SAS will dedicate time and consultants to a thorough search and selection exercise making sure that the client has access to the best available talent.
With a retained assignment, the client generally pays one-third of the fee at commencement of the assignment; one-third upon delivery of a short list; and the balance upon placement of the candidate. In this way, you, as the client, are paying for a “service” in recognition of the time and materials that are expended in conducting the assignment.

Effective management of human capital within an organisation is a crucial component of creating company efficiency and market success. In order to drive this result, valuable and skilled managers are essential. A strong management team does not only require intellect, enthusiasm, and creativity, but also managers who understand, implement and focus on the development of in-house talent within the company. Over time, these internally developed leaders become extremely valuable assets as they have internalized company values, and core competencies that are strategically aligned with organisational goals.
