When it comes to recruitment, bigger doesn’t always mean better.
At Twenty2 Recruitment and Consultancy, based in Derbyshire, we’ve seen first-hand the advantages of choosing a smaller, more agile partner. This is especially true for clients in the professional services sector, where cultural fit, communication, and specialist knowledge are critical.
Here’s why businesses are increasingly turning to boutique consultancies like ours, and what that means for the value you receive.
Unlike large agencies juggling hundreds of roles at once, we deliberately keep things focused and personal. Our clients work directly with experienced consultants who truly understand their industry, culture, and priorities.
You’re not just another job brief in a system. You’re a valued partner. We build long-term relationships that enable us to deliver talent that doesn’t just tick boxes but makes a lasting impact.
We’re proud to be rooted in Derbyshire and connected across the East Midlands professional services landscape. This regional insight allows us to spot opportunities and move quickly. Our reputation also helps attract top-tier local candidates who may not be visible through traditional channels.
We understand the market because we live and work in it, and that matters.
Our streamlined approach means we can act fast, but never at the expense of quality.
We take the time to get it right. That means rigorous screening, open communication, and a clear understanding of what success looks like for both client and candidate. The result is fewer mismatches, better hires, and more time saved.
As a female-led business, we care deeply about purpose and people. We believe recruitment should reflect your business values, and we operate with integrity, empathy, and a genuine desire to see both businesses and individuals thrive.
This people-first approach isn’t a strapline. It’s the foundation of everything we do.
Whether you’re a scaling business with evolving needs or an established firm looking for specific expertise, we adapt to fit you, not the other way around.
From retained searches to urgent interim placements, we’re used to working flexibly and collaboratively to get the job done. No red tape. No rigid structures. Just responsive, tailored recruitment support.
In the world of accounting, finance, legal, HR, and executive support, technical skills are only part of the equation. You need people who can communicate, lead, and align with your team culture from day one.
That’s where smaller consultancies like Twenty2 shine. We invest more time in understanding your needs. We’re not driven by volume, but by value.
