Carousel Consultancy takes a rigorous, proactive and multi-channel approach to candidate attraction and selection.
Our highly experienced recruitment consultants use a combination of targeted headhunting, professional networking, market research, database search and thorough screening to identify high-quality talent.

We do not rely on a single sourcing method. Instead, we apply a comprehensive search strategy tailored to each brief, ensuring we reach both active and passive candidates with the skills, experience and cultural alignment required for the role.
This disciplined and persistent approach enables us to deliver strong, well-matched shortlists and consistently successful recruitment outcomes for our clients.

Carousel Consultancy provides expert recruitment solutions for clients in London, across the UK and internationally, delivering tailored talent strategies that align with both local and global hiring needs.
Working flexibly, our experienced consultants partner closely with clients to understand their business objectives, organisational culture and role requirements, ensuring we identify best-fit candidates.

For international recruitment assignments, Carousel is a proud member of IPTER (International Partner Team of Executive Recruiters). This global network enables us to collaborate with over 50 trusted executive recruitment partners worldwide, giving our clients access to the very best talent across multiple markets and regions. By leveraging this network, we combine our local market expertise with international reach, allowing us to deliver high calibre candidates for senior, specialist and executive roles anywhere in the world.

Trusted by FTSE 100 companies, global organisations and fast-growing international businesses, Carousel Consultancy provides a full-spectrum, bespoke recruitment service that scales seamlessly from London and UK assignments to complex international searches.

Carousel Consultancy operates a transparent, success-based fee structure.

For permanent and contract recruitment, clients only pay an introductory fee once a suitable candidate has been successfully appointed. 

As standard, our fee includes the full recruitment process: candidate sourcing, screening, interview coordination, reference checking and offer negotiation and support. Clients are invoiced only for vacancies we successfully fill, ensuring clear alignment between performance and cost.

For temporary recruitment and payroll services, we charge an agreed hourly rate. This rate includes the candidate's hourly pay, National Insurance contributions, holiday pay and all associated payroll and administration costs, providing clarity and compliance throughout the assignment.

You are welcome to share a job description with us and we can begin the recruitment process from there. However, we strongly believe that meeting our clients is a critical part of delivering successful recruitment outcomes.

By taking the time to meet you, understand your organisation, visit your workplace (where possible) and discuss the role in detail, we gain deeper insight into your company culture, value and expectations. This understanding enables us to accurately represent your business in the market and identify candidates who are not only technically qualified but also the right cultural fit.

This consultative, relationship-led approach is fundamental to how Carousel Consultancy delivers consistently successful hires.

Carousel Consultancy offers a transparent rebate scheme to provide additional reassurance when recruiting.
If a placed candidate leaves or does not meet expectations within the agreed guarantee period, we will refund a proportion of the recruitment fee.
The rebate amount is calculated based on the length of time the candidate was employed and is subject to the original invoice having been paid in accordance with agreed terms.

This rebate scheme reflects our commitment to fairness, accountability and long-term client partnerships, ensuring our clients can recruit with confidence.

Yes. Carousel Consultancy provides a fully managed temporary payroll service through our dedicated Temporaries division.
We support clients by handling the full payroll administration for temporary staff, ensuring accuracy, compliance and efficiency throughout the assignment.

Our temporary payroll services include processing weekly or monthly pay, managing National Insurance and statutory deductions, administering holiday pay and ensuring all employment and regulatory requirements are met.
This allows clients to focus on their core business while we manage the operational and administrative aspects of temporary staffing.
