Services for Recruitment Consultants
It’s a tough time to be in recruitment
No one quite knows how quickly the economy is going to bounce back or what the ‘new normal’ is going to look like, but as a recruiter, you still need to earn an income.
Given that Data Protection Officers are in many cases a legal requirement, they are likely proving a more resilient post for you to fill, but are the good candidates looking to risk a move in these uncertain times?
How we can help
If you’re working to fill a DPO role, we can provide the perfect solution. We have one of the largest, most qualified and experienced DPO teams in the country.
This means we can drop the perfect interim DPO into your client at short notice and potentially even prior to their outgoing DPO leaving. They can complete an immediate handover, keep all their plates spinning, then hand the role back to the new permanent DPO that you also place with them, once they’ve been successfully on-boarded.
This means you will earn TWO (or even three) commissions for a single role, you keep your client happy by providing what they need, and you lock out any other recruiter from muscling in on the long-term relationship that you are building with your client.
“As a prominent global media brand employing over 1,000 staff, we take privacy and compliance with data protection regulations extremely seriously. We required a data protection officer to cover an interim period prior to the recruitment of a new DPO. This person needed to be highly knowledgeable, able to successfully interpret complex requirements within our multifaceted environment, handle the varied processing and data subject rights issues as they arose and continue to drive positive change through an organisation that has been established for many years. We found exactly this resource from the DPO Centre. The DPO who assisted us, was able to start at short notice, very quickly understand our requirements and brilliantly delivered on each of the required aspects of the role – and at a level higher than we had anticipated.”

THE SERVICE WE PROVIDE
As you well know, time is of the essence when finding the best candidates. Your client needs to ensure that they don’t lose all that momentum their investment in data protection has so far achieved, and you cannot risk taking too long to place the ideal candidate before the client starts entertaining conversations with other recruiters.
Our large team of senior-level DPOs is the best available in the market. We know this because we hand-picked each of them when they stood out from the significant pool of less qualified and less experienced candidates out there.
Over the last 3 years, we have worked with a portfolio of over 400 high-profile mid-market clients, including the likes of Hyundai, NSPCC and the Royal Academy of Dance, so all our DPOs are fully accustomed to parachuting in, hitting the ground running and delivering immediate and tangible benefits.
Our DPOs are available for a minimum of 1 month and up to 3 days per week.
Placing a Data Protection Officer from the DPO Centre means that your client’s customers, stakeholders, suppliers and employees’ rights continue to be respected, their compliance framework is maintained and their organisation is not exposed to unnecessary regulatory risk.
Ultimately, what this means is you strengthen your relationship with your client, you deliver the exact resource they need, you secure your long-term relationship with them and you earn more money. Period.
BENEFITS TO YOU
We pay you a generous commission on the value of the engagement and charge your client directly. Subject to your separate agreement with the client, you may also charge them a commission for the temporary placement, AND ultimately you get your normal commission when you fill the role permanently. This clearly makes it a win for you and a win for your client as they get the cover and expertise they need, but without any management overhead or inconvenience.
