Business Development Director

Swindon, United Kingdom

March 2020 - Present

Established in 2007, our goal was simple: to become a market leading recruitment agency, with a portfolio of high calibre candidates, and national and international clients. We’re proud to have built a dedicated team of like-minded professionals who share our vision. People are the most important part of any business – and we are no different. At Aligra we only recruit recruitment consultants who show the right blend of professionalism, passion and commitment whose work ethic matches our 'whatever it takes' approach. Our team will always do what it takes to fulfil the Aligra ambition. In an increasingly competitive world, the success of your business depends on the quality and commitment of your people. That’s why, when it comes to sourcing candidates, our approach is thorough and challenging. By carrying out precision advertising, targeted referral incentives and attending employment fairs across the UK, we bring together and represent the best candidates across all sectors. Of course, to find the right candidate for your vacancy, it is vital that we understand your company – from your business culture and day-to-day operations to your long-term strategic goals. That’s why we assign a dedicated Aligra account manager, who will work closely with you to ensure you find the most appropriate, high calibre candidate for the job. We can advise you on everything from the Agency Workers Regulations to the current pensions auto-enrolment legislation. As corporate members of the REC (Recruitment and Employment Confederation), we are monitored to ensure we adhere to the code of conduct and employment law – and have regular audits to guarantee our procedures and processes are in line with current legislation. To give you extra peace of mind, we also have ISO9001 status. Additionally, as of 2018 we are now GLAA licenced.
