What We Offer

Recruiting the right staff is crucial to the success of your business, so at Denholm we take the whole process extremely seriously. We are Scotland's leading marketing recruitment specialists and as such, we know the job market inside out. Denholm are unlike most recruitment agencies, we offer a tailored search and selection and contingency recruitment service and take time to understand our clients' needs. We take a long-term view of the relationships we build with our clients. In fact, the majority of the companies we work with initially come to us via word of mouth or recommendation, which speaks for itself.

Search and selection


Company Director, Nicki Denholm, drives our search and selection function and her experience of recruiting senior level roles in Scotland is exceptional. Nicki has an unrivalled network of contacts across all sectors and disciplines and Denholm's market-leading industry knowledge ensures we are able to select the best possible match for our clients' requirements. We use the latest technology, alongside established research techniques to offer full market coverage in our searches, because we know that often, the best candidates aren't always active in the job market. We guarantee that our clients gain exposure to the very best talent available to them whenever the time comes to recruit.

Here comes our unique selling point...

In actual fact, it isn't just for senior level appointments that we use search and selection techniques and this is where we differ from other recruitment companies. Due to the way we structure our business, and the quality and experience of our consultants, we typically utilise the same methods each time we take on an assignment.

The Denholm recruitment process

We start by preparing a recruitment planning brief to help us really get under the skin of your organisation, its culture and your specific requirements. We then search for the best people using a proven combination of National database search, on and offline advertising and networking. Finally, we meet and vet each and every potential candidate in person and only put forward those candidates who we believe are absolutely right for your organisation. Meaning you get the maximum result for the minimum fuss.
