I Love Meredith Consultancy Services

When it comes to recruiting the perfect fit for a role at work, there’s an element of the unknown to contend with. However, help is on hand in the shape of Bramhall’s very own recruitment specialist Lyndsey Meredith, of Meredith Consultancy Services.

With more than 15 years’ recruitment experience, Lyndsey has perfected the art of finding the best candidates for positions – both locally and further afield. Lyndsey lives in Bramhall with her husband and daughter but caters for clients along the North West’s M60 corridor, from Stockport to Liverpool and everywhere in between.

Starting out in agency recruitment, Lyndsey made the switch to freelancing around seven years ago, the day after returning from her honeymoon. She was inspired to set up Meredith Consultancy Services by a step change in the industry to predominantly online models of service; the human element of recruitment was increasingly scaled back as agencies sought to cut costs over the short term.

It was Lyndsey’s goal to go against the grain and deliver a personal, proactive service, not driven by meeting targets and making a profit at the expense of other factors, but by building meaningful connections. Meeting candidates in person provides greater insight into their suitability for a position and helps avoid issues later down the line, Lyndsey says.

Working with small businesses in Bramhall, regional firms experiencing rapid growth and even global companies setting up local offices, Lyndsey has established a reputation for attention to detail, approaching each and every consultation with the same set of high standards and commitment to ethical recruiting – that is, offering a service that balances the requirements of a role and an employer’s needs with the preferences of potential recruits.

This diligent approach to ensuring the satisfaction of employers and employees alike has proven successful; it means that both parties are fully aware of what a position requires and each side is dedicated to getting the most from the role. In fact, Lyndsey is so confident in her services that she even offers a six-month guarantee on permanent placements.

For recruiters, Meredith Consultancy Services takes away the pain points associated with the selection process, working on behalf of employers to headhunt the most suitable candidates for roles. Meeting business managers in person, learning about how the company works and getting to know the staff, Lyndsey is able to establish a relationship with each client and ensure the service is tailored to their requirements.

For the potential new recruits, Lyndsey ensures that roles are right for applicants, taking into account elements like job satisfaction, travelling and work-life balance. She meets prospective employees face to face to talk through roles, assess suitability and ensure there’s just as much in it for the employee as for the employer. Lyndsey then conducts initial interviews to ensure that candidates are a good fit for the role before the process goes any further.

Sometimes, positions are being filled at a company during a period of growth; other times, there are issues within a business that are affecting staff retention levels. Lyndsey works with employers to identify any problems surrounding a role and come up with solutions. Creating job specifications and attraction plans, Meredith Consultancy Services ensures ads are appropriately placed where suitable candidates are most likely to access them.

Once a candidate has been successfully recruited for a role, Lyndsey monitors the progress of the employee directly to ensure both parties are satisfied. This ongoing communication helps build successful working relationships and working processes that are mutually beneficial for both employers and employees.

Lyndsey is looking to bring onboard more local clients across Bramhall and the wider Stockport area in 2018; to book your free first meeting with Meredith Consultancy Services, you can contact Lyndsey through the channels below.
