Tandem Talent is a vehicle of innovation through partnerships. Our objective is to build a deep understanding of our client by building genuine purposeful relationships that deliver.WE ARE HONEST, ACCOUNTABLE, COLLABORATIVE, SUSTAINABLEOur associates have over 40 years combined experience in the provision of Talent Partnerships and working with CEO's and C level HR/Operations individuals to provide strategic talent led projects.Our inspiration to start Tandem Talent has come from our experience of working in the agency and consultancy led areas of the recruitment sector. While both still have their place we believe the market has evolved to a point where organisations need a partnership that identifies problems, offers a solution and then executes that solution. Recruitment Consultancies and Agencies work at opposite ends of this spectrum which sees them actively seeking to undo any progress each side is making.Tandem Talent will act like a consultancy, providing that embedded "deep dive" analysis, providing the detail that outline areas for improvement then we actually do something about it with energy, consistency and embedded as a partner.

COVID-19 has officially put the UK into recession and our imminent exit for the EU provides a “perfect storm” that will deplete our future talent pools for UK business, especially the SME sector. It is crucial that our graduates receive the necessary support and guidance to help them navigate the jobs market during this challenging time furthermore, support that actually directs the individuals to arrive at an opportunity or destination.For UK businesses, it is worth considering that competition will become even more fierce once the UK has exited the EU. The “War on Talent” will no longer simply consist of organisations battling to find the best people to grow, we all now have to consider our economy and how it competes in the EU and Global markets. Tandem Trailblazers will aim to combat this through providing the energy and a proactive approach to marrying up our candidate populations with the UK business population.Tandem Trailblazers is a team of “doers” channelled with commercial acumen and a solid understanding of the recruitment discipline. We will partner alongside socially mobile platforms such ashttps://www.socialmobilitypledge.organd university groupshttps://luminate.prospects.ac.uk to help proactively identify real opportunities within the organisations that have signed up to offer them.The UK’s business community have responded incredibly positively to the post COVID recovery, over 450 of the UK’s largest employers and 50 of the UK’s major universities have signed up to the Social Mobility Pledge along with other incentives to help boost the UK economy. We now need the potential of these opportunities to crystallise and start matching the 40,000 UK graduates with genuine opportunities. Tandem Trailblazers will help centralise, skill match and coach the right candidates into the right positions, what we need from UK business is to provide the opportunity and the destination.
