Future Prospects
No other recruitment organisation can offer the range of management opportunities available in Hays and throughout Hays plc.
Play to your strengths
Because of our size, you can develop your career in the areas you want. Whether your primary skill is in people management, client management, business development, marketing or training, we'll ensure you’re given the support and encouragement to develop your career successfully.
If you wish to specialise in a specific business sector, you'll find the environment at Hays entrepreneurial enough to allow you to branch out with the resources of Hays behind you. All our directors, including our managing director, began their careers with the group as fee-earning consultants, rising through the ranks on merit.
Promotion is determined by your overall performance – not length of service, or indeed by fee production alone. Your overall team contribution, desire to succeed and willingness to take on responsibility are all important factors.
International opportunities
Hays has offices throughout Brazil, France, Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain and the Czech Republic and others, with further European offices planned to enable us to get closer to our clients and candidates.
In addition, we are the largest specialist finance recruitment network in Australasia, with 20 offices across Australia and New Zealand; we also have offices in Canada. Many of our consultants in our overseas offices are on one or two year 'working holidays' from the UK; in fact, global career progression is encouraged.
