ER Recruitment (Eileen Richards Recruitment)

ER Recruitment, recruitment in Leicester

ER Recruitment is a recruitment agency based in Leicester that works to connect candidates and businesses. Its activity focuses on understanding the culture and specific needs of each company, as well as the motivations of candidates, in order to create what the firm describes as suitable hiring matches.

Senior level recruitment

The agency has a specific line of recruitment for managers and executives. According to its presentation, it maintains relationships with experienced and talented leaders, which allows it to fill business-critical positions. This service is aimed at companies looking to bring in senior level candidates who fit their organisation.

Origins and background

The firm was founded by Eileen Perry (Richards) MBE, who began her career at a large recruitment company and went on to hold the position of Managing Director before turning thirty. According to the company's own account, her experience led her to identify a shift in the industry towards quantity over quality, with processes focused on filling seats rather than building lasting relationships. ER Recruitment was born from that perception, with a personalised, people-focused approach. The company states that it has been building relationships and connecting professionals since September 2013.

Services for businesses and candidates

The website organises its offering into two main areas. For businesses, it allows job adverts to be posted and candidates to be requested, as well as offering business insights content. For candidates, it offers registration, career tips and job search. There is also a specific section for executive profiles, with candidate registration and posting of vacancies at that level.

Content and community

ER Recruitment maintains a news and insights space with articles on industry trends and statistics. It also develops charitable initiatives and collaborates with charities and projects in the East Midlands region, an activity that the company presents as part of its identity.
