Talent Intelligence. Expert Search. Strategic Hiring.

Welcome to North & Velin

 At North & Velin, we believe the most important appointments are rarely found through a standard recruitment process.


The right individual can transform a team, accelerate growth, strengthen leadership and create lasting competitive advantage. Finding that person requires more than a vacancy, a job description or a database search. It requires a deep understanding of the organisation, the market and the people capable of making a difference.


North & Velin partners with organisations to solve complex talent challenges through talent consulting, specialist search and executive search.


From highly specialised appointments to senior leadership mandates, we combine research-led market intelligence with a highly personal and considered approach to identifying, engaging and securing exceptional talent.


We don’t simply ask,

 “Who is available?”


We ask:

“Who is right?”

Specialist Search

Finding expertise that isn’t easy to find.

 Some appointments cannot be solved through conventional recruitment.

They require a precise combination of technical expertise, industry knowledge, experience, qualifications, achievements and personal characteristics  sometimes narrowing the potential talent pool to a remarkably small number of individuals.


Our Specialist Search service is designed for these assignments.

We begin by understanding the requirement in depth, including the wider business context and the outcomes the individual will be expected to deliver.


We then research and map the relevant talent market, identify individuals who meet the defined criteria and engage with suitable professionals directly.


Our focus is not on producing the largest shortlist.

It is on identifying the right people.


Where appropriate, this includes professionals who are not actively seeking a new opportunity and would never have applied to a traditional vacancy.


Highly specific requirements. Deep market research. Precisely targeted search.

Executive Search

Connecting Vision With Leadership

 The appointment of a senior leader can fundamentally alter the trajectory of an organisation.


Our Executive Search service is designed for organisations seeking exceptional leadership talent across C-suite, board, executive and senior management positions.


We undertake discreet, research-led searches to identify leaders whose experience, capability and ambitions align with the organisation’s future direction.

Our assessment extends beyond career history and qualifications.


We consider:


-Leadership capability

-Strategic thinking

-Commercial impact

-Transformation experience

-Industry expertise

-Cultural alignment

-Motivation

-Leadership style

-Track record

-Long-term potential


We don’t simply identify executives who could perform the role.

We seek to understand who could make the greatest difference to the organisation.


From confidential leadership appointments to board and C-suite searches, every mandate is approached with discretion, precision and independence.


Discreet. Targeted. Strategic.

Talent Consulting

Understanding the talent landscape before making the appointment.

 The most difficult talent decisions often begin before a role exists.


Our Talent Consulting service helps organisations understand their talent markets, define their requirements and make informed decisions about how, where and when to hire.


We provide insight across:


-Talent market intelligence

-Talent mapping

-Workforce planning

-Salary and compensation benchmarking

-Skills-gap analysis

-Market entry and expansion

-Hiring strategy

-Succession and leadership planning

-Critical talent identification


Whether you are entering a new market, scaling an organisation, developing a new function or struggling to find a particular skill set, we help you understand the landscape before you commit to a hiring strategy.


Our role is to answer the questions that sit behind the vacancy:

Does this talent exist? Where is it? What will attract it? What will it cost? And what approach will secure it?

Beyond the Active Candidate Market

At North & Velin, we recognise that exceptional talent is not always actively looking for their next opportunity. Many of the most capable professionals are already succeeding in their current roles and are not visible through traditional recruitment channels. Through targeted research, market mapping and discreet engagement, we identify and approach individuals who may not be actively considering a move, but whose experience, expertise and ambitions make them highly relevant to our clients. This allows us to reach beyond the active candidate market and engage with the people who may otherwise never enter the recruitment process. 

Let’s Talk

 

Whether you have a complex talent requirement, are looking for a highly specialised professional, or need guidance on your wider talent strategy, we would welcome the opportunity to understand what you are trying to achieve.
