At S2M, our purpose is to achieve success for our clients and candidates by striving for excellence in recruitment. We understand where this success comes from, through both leadership and innovation, in people and businesses alike. So why choose S2M for your next digital role?

Our genuine point of difference and why our focus on recruitment excellence will deliver you success is that we recruit innovators for leading businesses, leaders for innovative businesses.

As we all know, the best people deliver the best results - but they’re hard to find. Through our unique approach and network of leaders and innovators we can help find our clients the best person. We find these people through hard work. We also conduct deep market research and use this network to unearth Leaders and Innovators long after our competition has stopped looking.

Over 80% of our placements come through referrals because of the great work we’ve previously done. Our dedication to excellence in finding you the best Leaders and Innovators is built on hard work. Our exceptional referrals rate (industry-leading 80%), time-consuming research and deep, long-term relationships mean S2M can notify you when these Leaders and Innovators hit the market before our competition.

To find these Leaders and Innovators, S2M itself is first and foremost the home of true Leaders and Innovators in the recruitment industry. Our team of senior specialists are attracted to S2M not out of necessity, but desire to work with the best in the business. As success begets success, our wealth of experience attracts the best recruitment talent to us. Not only do we have the decades of experience in the industry, but we have decades of excellence behind us.

When we advertise our roles, particularly a leadership role for fostering innovation, we don’t tempt ourselves to highlight the positive aspects of a role just to make the best first impressions. We find many people in our industry will do this, highlighting the perks of a role to ensure the candidate is impressed immediately.

We understand that there isn’t any real value in showing these perks first. The truest value in a role comes from demonstrating the challenges a candidate faces in the role, as these moments can often be career defining and provide much greater value to the candidate than the perks. Adversity in a role not only builds careers but people themselves. This approach attracts high-quality candidates that are excited by the challenges.

Having the open transparency into the journey a candidate may go through produces the most genuine candidate. We aren’t fixated on management experience, but look to focus on someone who has displayed dedication to their work, as only the work matters. If they can produce quality work, show leadership and think outside the box, we know how good they can be. In turn, we want to empower our candidates to make decisions that impact the business, which is where the best innovation comes from.
