In late January, the Global Edge Consultants came together to celebrate the 2021 year during the annual Global Edge Awards.

If someone was looking for top legal advice, specifically property, they’d seek an expert who is well-versed in property law rather than a general practice solicitor. An expert who is specialised in one field will have a far greater understanding of the subject and can offer unrivalled advice. Similarly, a consultative recruitment and workforce solutions business that has specialised in a distinct area will be deeply rooted in their field and have the industry-specific knowledge that general recruitment agencies don’t. Concentrating their attention on a niche group of candidates allows specialist consultants to adopt a highly personalised approach, which remains a top priority in the changing recruitment landscape. Read on for a deeper dive into the main advantages of working with a specialist agency like ours.
