Based in Edinburgh, Gilchrist Recruitment Partnership was founded by Jill Gilchrist; Scotland’s most experienced marketing-specific recruiter.
We’re a full-service recruitment and career consultancy that works exclusively within the Scottish digital, marketing, and creative industries.
In today’s job market, candidates have more choice than ever. We help you find the right one for your business; a person with the skillset to take you to the next level of success, and the desire to stick around and watch it happen.
Transforming your experience of recruitment
There’s no getting around it: recruitment agencies can sometimes get a bad rep.
As a small, independent business, we do things differently. Our reputation has been built on relationships, and we take a quality over quantity approach to recruitment, only putting forward stand-out candidates we know can make a difference in your organisation.
We take the time, hassle, and stress out of recruitment. We have been the sole partner of many of our clients for two decades, continuously delivering successful recruitment solutions that meet their needs in terms of skills, culture fits, and timelines.
We’re so confident in finding you the perfect candidate that we operate a purely success-based service. If things aren’t working out after three months, we’ll source someone new free of charge.
We know your industry
Rather than offer recruitment solutions across different sectors, we stick to where we know we can make the most impact; the digital, marketing, and creative spaces.
We understand the opportunities, challenges, and complexities in the market, and are here to help you navigate them all. We are committed to working exclusively within the Scottish market, dealing only with local candidates or those with a firm relocation date.
Our decades of experience have led to an extensive database of unparalleled contacts. This includes a network of the best talent in the market, many of whom we have supported as they have progressed in their careers.
From our first conversations with you, we will already have a shortlist of known contacts who possess the skill sets you are searching for.
A completely tailored approach
Rather than filling quotas with longlists of unsuitable candidates, we offer a bespoke recruitment experience to fill roles from graduate to director-level.
From establishing search priorities to assisting in job specification development and vacancy advertisement, we’re here to make recruitment a pain-free experience for your organisation.
