The promotion criteria is clear and well laid out. You will be completely supported by the team, the management and leadership. Your success, however, is ultimately down to you.

Mark Lesner, Senior Consultant

Investigo's culture is unique; the support, the recognition, the friendly atmosphere - make it a really enjoyable place to work.

Irina Nagy, Marketing Executive

The platinum scheme that Investigo offer is amazing and has a huge effect on your earning potential. It is extremely competitive in comparison to what is offered elsewhere in the market.

Hayley Loades, Principal Consultant

You're supported, encouraged and rewarded based on what it is you want to get out of your job. That support can be flexible working, internal career opportunities, recognition for achievements and values but most importantly you're given autonomy and trust to do your job.

Kerry Wykes, Senior Consultant

It's all about the people for me. There are no egos and everyone helps each other out. People here take pride in doing things the right way for long-term benefits - not just for short-term gains.

Stuart Bonner, Director

What I love about Investigo is that it's not just all about the work. There is never any doubt that we are all passionate about what we do and everyone wants to make Investigo the best that they can, but we have fun doing it.

If you ask anyone who works at Investigo what sets us apart, the answer is invariably “our culture” which is best described as open, honest, friendly and above all - fun.

Our people enjoy coming into work because they are surrounded by an eclectic group of individuals, each of whom share a common purpose: to make a difference. The collaborative environment encourages people not only to work together but also to socialise together too. Our football team, netball team, squash club, LGBT group Investigay and regular after work drinks, all mean that there is no shortage of opportunities to get together with the rest of the company outside of work, should you wish to.

At work, you will find your colleagues at Investigo are exceptional in terms of their desire to build meaningful relationships with their candidates and clients. Central to this are our values of integrity, passion, commitment, fairness and expertise. It is important that every person we employ also share these values to ensure that our culture continues to attract and retain the very best talent within the industry.

Without doubt, the best company I have ever worked for. You will be surrounded by very motivated people with a wealth of experience. There is a great culture cultivated by a team of excellent people.

We have created an aspirational environment, where our employees strive to excel. Regularly recognising and rewarding personal contribution across our workforce is vital to maintaining our culture. Our compensation package is at the heart of rewarding our employees (both support and fee-earners) for their efforts.

I have worked at other recruitment businesses and this is by far the best. They have the balance between having fun and working hard, as well as rewarding their staff with a great commission scheme and regular incentives / high performer trips.

Our reward scheme is simple and transparent, designed to attract and retain the best talent in the industry. We have complete visibility for fee-earners over their earning potential (see commission table) and our top-up platinum scheme ensures fairness across the business.

We bring the whole company together twice a year to say thank you - at the Christmas Party and our Summer Conference. We recognise our high achievers with quarterly trips overseas to luxury destinations such as Iceland, Menorca, Ibiza and Courchevel.

Creating an environment where our employees are challenged and given the opportunity to excel is paramount to us.

We offer a real meritocratic environment with progression open to every individual within the business. Clear guidelines on the qualifications for advancement are widely publicised and open to you regardless of tenure.

We aim to develop people and provide coaching and mentoring to facilitate career progression and promotion from within. Our promotion record to date is Associate Consultant to Director in 6 years. You will find us more autonomous than many of our competitors due to everyone in the business conducting their working day with commitment and integrity to be the very best they can be.

Our Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is designed to attract and retain individuals who understand how to grow a profitable business and create real value. If you aspire to run your own business at some stage, then you should be talking to us.

Investigo is definitely the recruitment company to work for if you like autonomy and thrive at building your business, the best way you see fit. Given the nature of how the business expanded initially, there are plenty of high calibre Consultants and Directors to collaborate with, which helps create a high performance culture.
