Why Red5?
At Red5, we work a little differently. Our focus is always on ensuring a great customer experience. Rather than pushing out job ads and waiting for the candidates to come to us, we already know where to go to find the very best people for your team.
Consultants only work on a maximum of three roles at any time
Candidates are only ever presented to one hiring company
Transparent timeframe from instruction to hire: 30 days
Red5Live video screening interviews
We act as an extension of your own in-house team
Retained v Contract v Contingent v RPO
What are the differences of each approach
What is Contingent Recruitment?
Contingent recruitment essentially means ‘no placement, no fee’.
A Red5 recruiter is tasked with filling a role but chances are, they may not be working exclusively on it, and if they don’t succeed in filling the role, then their work goes unrewarded and they move on to the next job.
Contractor Recruitment
If you’re looking to plug a skills gap, we have an experienced team of Cyber recruitment consultants that can find you the most talented people for your Cyber contract roles.
Many of our cyber contractors have completed multiple assignments for our clients across the UK and Europe.
With full compliance knowledge of IR35 and AWR, and a sophisticated back-office, our experts will ensure that your contractors are focussed on helping your organisation.
At Red5 we also offer our clients an industry-leading compliant Contractor Payroll Portal that combines a timesheets portal with approval functionality, invoicing, expenses logging, document management, and automated remittance advice.
This solution enables our clients to make significant savings in back-office administration costs and time and enables your IT contractors to focus on their work.
What Is Retained Recruitment?
When working to a retained model, the recruiter collects a partial fee from clients before the recruitment process begins.
The remainder of the fee is paid upon successful placement of the candidate. The agency will work on an exclusive basis meaning they are the only ones working on the role.
‘Zero30’ – Is the Red5 expedited ‘Premium’ Retained Search 30day Solution
Red5’s ‘Zero30’ premium retained Search Solution methodology makes the recruitment process exceptionally efficient and wholly transparent.
We set clear deliverables every seven days which makes us, the recruiter, fully accountable for a smooth and speedy process.
We pledge to complete all of our mandates within 30 days – that’s around three times faster than the industry average.
Naturally, this is dependent on both the client and candidates delivering their feedback in a timely manner, but we find on average that 9 out of 10 roles are successfully filled within the ‘Zero30’ delivery timescale.
The Red5 ‘Zero30’ retained search solution provides our clients the opportunity to work with us on deposit-led or instalment basis.
Used when we are working on multiple roles for you, our retained search recruitment solutions enable our clients to spread costs whilst building their teams.

Video Shortlists With ‘Red5Live’
How Does It Work?
We conduct three 5-minute videos of our shortlisted candidates, each of whom has been pre-qualified by your Red5 Talent Acquisition Manager, specifically for your role.
This shortlist is sent to your inbox by day 15 of the process, so you can interview your favourites and ultimately make your offer.
Our clients love receiving their ‘Red5Live’ shortlists! While the first step in an interview process is usually a screening call, we take this one step further.
We produce 5-10 minute video interviews with a member of our talent acquisition team (with questions set by you) and these enable you to get an instant feel for a candidate’s passion and communication skills.
The Red5 video interview platform is a technologically advanced screening process. It gives you deeper insight into aspects of each candidate which you cannot pick up from a CV alone– things such as communication style, cultural fit and general presentation are all traits which cannot be ascertained from reviewing a CV alone.
You can assess a candidate’s personality, communication skills and cultural fit in order to make an informed decision. Red5 Live saves you hours of time and effort with each hire.
