Recruitment shaped around capability, contribution and long-term fit
At Kirkwood Consulting, recruitment is approached with care and depth. We support employers who want hiring that is ethical, consistent and built around genuine potential. Our role is to help you bring in people who strengthen culture, raise performance and stay long enough to make an impact.
Our tailored recruitment services begin with understanding your organisation’s expectations, pressures and working style. This allows us to identify candidates whose behaviours, values and capability match the environment they’re stepping into.
Start your next recruitment project with confidence
We deliver direct recruitment services across the private, public and third sectors, working with organisations that need talent capable of contributing from day one. Whether you are hiring for specialist roles, building new teams or strengthening your senior leadership pipeline, our approach combines insight, knowledge, care and consistency.
For large-scale or multi-region hiring, our central recruitment services offer an end-to-end model covering sourcing, screening, onboarding and candidate experience.

Supporting candidates with purpose
We support candidates across the UK who are looking for meaningful roles from graduate level through to senior leadership and director positions. Our approach is personal and focused on long-term success – understanding each individual’s strengths, ambitions and working style so we can connect them with organisations where they can genuinely grow.
Although our training and consultancy work is international, our recruitment services are UK-based. We recruit across the private, public and third sectors, helping organisations access capable, talented, motivated people who want to make a meaningful contribution.
Why our model works
Because we prioritise qualities that create long-term value: sound judgement, adaptability, communication and a willingness to learn. We are also an age-positive employer and recruitment partner – we recognise the insight, stability and experience that professionals bring at every stage of their career. In a market where age discrimination is rising, we actively champion applicants who have decades of contribution still ahead of them. When recruitment focuses on these deeper qualities, teams grow stronger.
