We take a solution-driven, consultancy-led approach with every client. We support employer branding by developing compelling EVP and value-add materials that enhance talent attraction. Using data and insights, we advise on how to attract, develop, and retain the best people, helping employers build high-performing, future-ready teams.
Engaging with new talent
We actively support new talent into engineering and manufacturing to ease the skills shortage. Through STEM initiatives, we help young people access rewarding career paths. We work with CTP and Forces Families Jobs to support service leavers transitioning into the sector. Our EDI efforts also focus on attracting more women and promoting diversity across the workforce.

We provide expert advice to all candidates, whether permanent or contract. Through our online careers hub, we offer tailored guidance, helpful blogs, and market insights to help candidates understand their value. Our strong links with top employers also give talent access to exciting opportunities across the sector.

Our ATA Search consultants are trained in psychometric assessments, enabling us to evaluate candidates to ensure they’re the right fit for the role. We can also assess existing teams to identify gaps and ensure new hires complement and strengthen team dynamics, delivering the best possible match for long-term success.
