Focused On Recruitment

Focused On Recruitment recruits for technical roles in the MSP and software sectors. It covers all roles in software development, testing and quality assurance, as well as infrastructure services positions including cloud, security, field and project, and service desk roles. It says it has a background in recruitment and human resources of over twenty years, working within the IT, government, construction, legal and digital industries.

The company presents itself as an alternative to the traditional model in which the placement fee is a percentage of salary. It quotes the whole project, including hours, advertising and associated costs, before starting, and says its costs are capped. Its services include searching the market for candidates through social media advertising and direct approaches, technical assessments carried out for clients, reference checks, and human resources services offered bundled or unbundled depending on project needs.

The business is led by its director, Mike Kerr, whose career has included senior human resources and recruitment work for global IT organisations in the defence, cybersecurity, MSP, vendor, digital and software sectors.
