About Essential
Specialist marketing recruitment. Without the usual recruitment noise.
Essential Resourcing is a founder-led marketing recruitment and search business based in Manchester, working across the North West and UK.
It was built around a fairly simple idea:
Helping Businesses Make Better Hiring Decisions.
That means getting clearer on what you actually need, reaching the right people and doing more than matching keywords on a CV.
Positioning
Specialist enough to know the market. Human enough to have a proper conversation.
Specialist experience across marketing, PR, communications, digital and agencies
Agency-side and client-side market knowledge
Permanent, retained and Fractional hiring
Straight advice on the brief, salary, market and process
Fewer CVs. Better conversations. Better hiring decisions.
How it works
Fewer roles. Deeper work. More accountability.
Essential isn't trying to be everything to everyone.
It's a specialist recruitment business built around marketing and the disciplines around it, with David directly involved in the work.
That means properly understanding the problem behind the hire, challenging the bits that don't stack up and getting behind the CV before somebody reaches your interview room.
Next step
Need good people?
Tell David what you're trying to hire. He'll tell you honestly whether Essential can help.
