The team at Robert Walters were great, I had a number of roles to secure from varying parts of the business and in a relatively short time including our CEO.  Robert Walters did a fantastic job of understanding who we are, what we are about and conveying this to candidates.
Having that central understanding made it easy to work across various roles and different specialist.  The biggest challenge was picking from the shortlist of high calibre candidates that came through.

FAQs

  • What if I only require certain service lines rather than the full suite?

    Our team will collaborate with you to design a tailored talent solutions partnership that aligns with your specific needs at any given time. We recognise that workforce priorities evolve, and the support you require today may differ in the future. That’s why our Enterprise Talent Solutions are structured to provide flexibility and value throughout every stage of the workforce lifecycle.

    For detailed information on each service line, please visit our Recruitment, Outsourcing, Consultancy, and Talent Advisory pages.

  • Can Robert Walters support multi country hiring and local compliance?

    Yes. With presence in 31 countries, our solutions are designed for global scale, underpinned by local market expertise. We align to regional labour regulations, data‑privacy requirements and hiring standards, while maintaining central governance and consistent reporting.

    Please note that service availability may vary by country; your account team will confirm the optimal model for each location.

  • Why should I choose Robert Walters as our talent solutions partner?

    For over 40 years, we’ve helped organisations build stronger workforces through insight‑driven strategies and global expertise.

    From optimising hiring strategies to navigating workforce transformation, our consultative approach and industry‑leading research ensure measurable impact. Clients trust us for our long‑term perspective, collaborative delivery and ability to solve complex talent challenges.

  • What is the difference between a recruiter and a talent solutions partner?

    A recruiter’s primary focus is filling individual roles: sourcing, screening and placing candidates to meet immediate hiring needs. In contrast, a talent solutions partner takes a broader, more strategic approach.

    Rather than concentrating solely on filling vacancies, they work with you to design workforce strategies that address long‑term goals, market challenges and organisational change. This includes optimising your hiring processes, leveraging data insights and integrating services such as recruitment, outsourcing, consultancy and talent advisory.

    The aim is not just to hire talent, but to build a resilient, future‑ready workforce.
