Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about working with PinnacleHR — from first contact to successful placement.

Timelines vary depending on the seniority and specialism of the role. For standard permanent positions, we typically present a qualified shortlist within 7–10 working days of receiving a confirmed brief. For contract roles, we can often mobilise candidates within 48–72 hours. Executive search assignments generally take 6–10 weeks to complete a thorough market canvas and assessment process.

All permanent placements come with a minimum 90-day rebate guarantee. Should a placed candidate leave or be asked to leave within this period, we will conduct a free replacement search or provide a pro-rata fee rebate, depending on the circumstances. Our Growth Partner and Strategic Partner clients receive extended guarantee periods of up to 6 months. We're proud that our placement retention rate exceeds 94%.

Three things set us apart: depth of sector expertise, technology, and relationships. Our consultants are specialists in their fields — many are former practitioners — so they understand your market at a granular level. We invest heavily in AI-powered matching tools that reduce time-to-hire by 40% versus industry average. Most importantly, we build genuine long-term partnerships rather than transactional relationships, which is why 78% of our business comes from repeat clients.

Absolutely. Supporting candidates is at the heart of what we do. Our candidate services include job search support, professional CV writing, LinkedIn optimisation, interview coaching, salary negotiation guidance, and career development coaching. These services are available free of charge for candidates actively pursuing roles through PinnacleHR. We also offer standalone paid coaching packages via our Career Development division for professionals seeking personal development outside of an active job search.

We cover mid-level professional through to Board/C-suite across Technology, Finance, Legal, Healthcare, Marketing, Engineering, HR, Consulting, Education, Property, Retail, and the Public Sector. Our specialist divisions allow us to go deep rather than wide — you'll always speak with a consultant who truly understands your sector and the typical career paths within it. We are headquartered in London with offices in Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh and Bristol.
