IT Recruitment Services for Contractors

The IT recruitment services that we provide for Contractors are second to none.  In 2012 we were Finalists in the prestigious Recruiter Awards for Excellence: 'Best IT Recruitment Agency', & the Wiltshire Business of the Year Awards. We are also in the UK's Top 50 IT Recruitment Companies.

Contractor FAQs

How do you go about finding me a suitable contract?
We do many things to try to secure everyone relevant work.  We feel it is very important for as many people as possible within the company to have an overview of your CV because, in the very first instance, we rely upon our judgment and memory regarding who we know of or have reviewed recently.  This is because we are conscious of the limitations with using even the most sophisticated search engines for our IT recruitment services. 

So, upon welcome receipt of your CV it is personally reviewed by senior consultants and passed on internally to consultants who have a vested interest in your technical skills or your commercial experience.  Then, various internal processes are applied so that we can flag you up quickly for specific work.

How can I be confident that you will not send my CV to companies speculatively?
Our ethos is very much about providing a consultative IT recruitment service and being able to offer our clients extensive detail, beyond the scope of a CV.  Sending CVs speculatively does not form any part of our IT recruitment service.

What do I need to do so that you give me priority?
A well written CV certainly helps, please visit 'Getting the best from your CV' should you require guidance.  We aim to look after everyone equally.  Not only do our Consultants have a good overview of your potentially relevant skills, we also have a brilliant IT recruitment Resourcing Team, led by Wayne Starritt and very ably deputised by Lauren Turner.  The sole job of the Resourcing Team is to accurately match you to relevant vacancies. 

This excellent team enables us to personally consider you for as many potential IT contracts as possible.  Between the resourcers, about 500 calls are made per day.  We work hard on your behalf and we are very proactive, rather than waiting for CVs to arrive in response to advertisements.  A major benefit of not advertising our IT recruitment services on job boards is a large reduction in duplication.  The vacancies we handle vary widely and if we happen to not have relevant work for you, we will not inundate you with irrelevant calls.

How can I be sure I have skills which you are interested in?
We supply all skills within IT and Business Systems.  If you are in doubt, just call us on 01892 771447 or email ws@vector-uk.com and we can advise you personally on our IT recruitment services.

What tips do you have for me?
Keep your CV continually updated and make sure we have the most up to date copy, as well as expected availability for work.  CV email: cvs@vector-uk.com.  Do also review our Contractors' Area on the left hand side of this page and visit our Testimonials page to hear from clients and contractors/candidates about our IT recruitment services.
