Brief
A genuine 60–90 minute briefing conversation. We push back where the brief is wrong on salary, seniority, or scope.
Bold places Account Executives, Sales Development Reps, Business Development Managers, Digital Marketing Managers, Content Marketing Specialists, and senior marketing roles across the UK. Permanent, contract, and interim — all handled with the same rigour.
The realistic timeline from initial brief to offer is eight to ten weeks for a director or VP-level role, with one to two weeks for the strongest shortlists at mid level. We will not promise faster than that.

12 weeks on contingent, 26 weeks on retained. If a candidate leaves within the guarantee period for almost any reason, we re-run the search at no further fee.
