Flexible hiring models designed around your needs.
Different hiring challenges require different recruitment approaches. At Talent Locker, we offer three flexible recruitment solutions designed to help organisations secure the right technology talent quickly and effectively.
Contingent
Need recruitment support without long-term commitment?
Our contingent recruitment model is ideal for organisations hiring for mid-level roles or time-sensitive vacancies. You gain access to Talent Locker’s expert sourcing, screening and candidate networks when you need it, with no exclusivity required.
Why choose Contingent?
Benefit from Talent Locker’s specialist technology recruitment expertise while maintaining the flexibility to hire without long-term commitment.
Exclusive
Need your role prioritised to secure candidates faster?
Our exclusive recruitment partnership provides a more proactive search for urgent, niche or hard-to-fill roles. We dedicate focused delivery, headhunting and targeted market mapping to identify and secure high-quality permanent or contract professionals.
Why choose Exclusive?
Exclusive partnerships allow us to prioritise your search, giving you faster access to highly relevant candidates and a more structured hiring process.
Retained
Hiring for a senior or strategic role?
Our retained search service is designed for senior leadership and executive hires. Acting as an extension of your organisation, we manage the entire process from role definition and market mapping through to shortlist delivery and final hire.
Why choose Retained?
A bespoke, end-to-end executive search partnership designed to secure senior talent within a clearly defined timeframe.
DELIVERING FULL PROJECT TEAMS? MEET TALENT LOCKER PROJECTS.
When hiring moves beyond individual roles to delivering an entire technology or transformation programme, Talent Locker Projects (TLP) provides the solution.
From ERP implementations and AI programmes to secure digital transformation environments, we deploy pre-qualified interim specialists and delivery teams— often within 48 hours.
If your priority is programme delivery rather than individual hires, our projects division gives you access to the experienced teams and specialist expertise needed to deliver at pace and scale.
