Specialist Recruitment
Recruitment Support Services For Growing Ethical SME’s
When you’re stretched thin, it’s easy to put recruitment off until the workload becomes unmanageable and you’re forced into a frantic hiring spree. When you’re recruiting under pressure, CVs and a quick interview can lead you to a candidate, but not necessarily the right one. Get it wrong, and you can eventually end up wasting more time and money advertising, interviewing and onboarding someone who ultimately isn’t the right fit, so you have to start the whole process again.
When you recruit with us, we’ll be there every step of the way, from advertising the role to conducting the interviews. We only recruit for roles we do ourselves, so our expertise acts as a sieve, filtering candidates based on our real-world delivery experience. We get clear on what you need, then manage the process to find people who fit the role, as well as your company values and culture.
We’ll start with a thorough gap analysis, helping you get clear on exactly what you need, and who you need, before we write the job spec. You’ll work with one experienced, specialised recruiter, dedicated to getting to know your business inside out, so you never have to repeat yourself. Book a discovery call, and let us do the heavy lifting, while you stay focused on running your business.
The Benefits
Save Valuable Time
Recruitment comes with a mountain of admin: job adverts to write, applications to sift through, interviews to schedule, and that’s before you’ve even met a candidate. We’ll bear that entire burden for you, saving our clients 10+ days of admin time on average. That’s time you can spend serving your existing clients, developing your business, or simply switching off in the evening, instead of buried in a pile of CVs.
Reduce Risk
We go through CVs and conduct initial interviews ourselves, screening every candidate against your requirements before their details ever reach you. By the time you sit down for the final interview, you’re only meeting people who’ve already proven they are strong candidates who will fit into your work culture seamlessly.
Trust Our Expertise
Through our VA work, we’ve supported 100+ SMEs, giving us real insight into the skills and experience needed for marketing, operations and senior administrative roles. We only hire for roles we know inside out, and we deliver ourselves, so we can make sure the candidates we present to you have the skills needed to excel as part of your team.
Our Recruitment Support Process Includes:
Gap Analysis & Role Scoping
We’ll work with you to understand your business and identify any gaps in your setup, to shape the job spec and role profile early on.
Job Descriptions
Drawing on our own delivery experience, we’ll write a job description and role profile that attracts the right candidates for the job.
Advertising & Screening
We’ll manage the process of advertising your role and reviewing applications on your behalf, filtering out anyone who isn’t the right fit.
Initial Interviews
We’ll conduct initial online interviews on your behalf, screening candidates against your requirements before they reach your calendar, so by the time you meet them, you know they’re worth your time.
Final Interviews
Need support with final interviews? We’ll be right there with you. Prefer to handle them yourself? That’s completely fine too; we’ll simply step back.
Roles Covered
We recruit for Executive Support & Admin, Ops & Office Management, Customer Service & Client Experience, and Marketing Execution roles – roles we know best.

Client Testimonial
“Walsingham Planning recently used Planner Bee VA Services to recruit a Practice Manager for us.
They took all the hassle away from a first-time recruitment, dealing with preparing the job description, advertising the role, carrying out stage 1 interviews, shortlisting and then attending the in-person stage 2 interviews, as well as all the candidate admin along the way.
Throughout the process, the service provided was excellent and we got the right candidate first time round!”
