About The Company

Certified Workday® Staffing Partner


Here at Skillsearch, we're a recruitment company. In the simplest form, this means we place people at new companies - but actually, it's so much more than that. We exist to make recruitment as quick and easy as possible for everyone involved. When you work with us you're signing up for support throughout the whole process from planning interviews to salary negotiation. Rather than trying to sell a 'dream job' or finding you 'top talent', we work hard to make matches between people and companies that genuinely fit well together.


Our company is made up of a team of dedicated consultants who work across a range of niche technologies including Games, Virtual Reality, AR and XR, Workday®, Oracle, Peoplesoft, SAP and Data, and we are always exploring other cutting-edge markets. That means even if you don't see your area in that list, please get in touch and we'll be happy to talk through with you how we can help.


We have worked in over 35 countries in the last 12 months alone and alongside our Brighton office we have a dedicated team based in the Philippines for the China and EMEA market, the US for the North America market, and soon to be a 4th office in the MENA region - so when we say we work across the globe we really mean it (although breaking into the Arctic/Antarctic market hasn't been overly successful so far...)
