ENGINEERING RECRUITMENT SPECIALISTS
HIRE NOW. PAY MONTHLY.
The success-based recruitment model built for Engineering & Manufacturing SMEs. Scale your team without damaging your cash flow.
A HIRING MODEL AS PRACTICAL AS YOUR ENGINEERING
For too long, the recruitment industry has relied on a rigid, outdated model that punishes growing businesses. Why should you lose a massive, five-figure sum from your cash flow for a single hire? You need to invest your capital in machinery, R&D and materials, not in high-stakes recruitment fees that strain your runway.
That is why we created The Scale-Up Plan. It is a straightforward, success-based approach designed to align with your business goals, not work against them. We find the talent, you spread the cost over 12 interest-free months.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US
Joe Perkins, Chaptr
Aside from working their socks off, they take the time to completely understand your company requirements and culture. The process Ripple has is truly unique and they address one of the biggest recruitment barriers for growing businesses - cost, with flexible payment terms.
Patrick Kelly, Adapt Digital
Not only delightful to work with, his extensive experience proved to be invaluable to us in helping find somebody with the right skill set but more importantly a suitable cultural fit. To top it all off, we had someone selected and onboard within 6 weeks of engaging his services.
THE TRADITIONAL MODEL (THE PROBLEM)
❌ Large Upfront Fee - A 20% to 25% fee is due immediately upon placement, straining your cash flow.
❌ High Financial Risk – If the hire doesn't work out, you've already paid a large, non-refundable cost.
❌ Misaligned Incentives – The old model incentivises agencies to "place and replace" with no skin in the game.
OUR SCALE-UP PLAN (THE SOLUTION)
✅ Manageable Monthly Payments – Recruitment fees are split into 12 simple, interest-free monthly payments.
✅ Protects Your Runway – Transform a large capital expense into a predictable operational cost.
✅ De-Risked Hiring – Our success is tied to your hire's long term success, creating a true partnership.
