We are a Bournemouth based Recruitment & HR Consultancy who specialise in sourcing and retaining the best talent for companies working in the property industry. Our Clients are based across the UK and include Property Investment Companies, Estate Agents, Mortgage Brokers and Construction Companies.
Intalent Solutions Ltd commenced trading on 1
February 2015. With over 12 years in-house Recruitment & HR experience and following three years of extensive research, Founder Matthew Edge-Wilkins established the need for a more collaborative, partnership based approach towards effective recruitment and retention. More and more companies are bringing their Recruitment & HR Functions in-house because they feel dissatisfied with their existing external providers in their ability to deliver great talent and an excellent level of HR services. Our aim is to solve this ‘pain’ by delivering a bespoke range of services that champion the sourcing skills of an executive search firm, with the focus, knowledge and engagement of an in-house function.
Understand the full DNA of the role, team, company, values, culture etc.
This is us....we're passionate about delivering a best-in-class service to all our clients and candidates
HR & Business Development Consultant
Leana is the Business Development Manager at Intalent. Leana loves meeting new people, building strong business relationships and ensuring that everything we do exceeds our Clients’s and Candidate’s expectations and champions our Company Values.
That meeting led to Matthew joining Freespirit Consulting who provide support and talent management services to contractors, obtaining a four-year sponsorship in the process. 12 months later, Matthew joined the International Student Placement Centre (ISPC), which has since been bought out by Sydney University. This was a cold desk start, where Matthew was responsible for recruiting a high volume of international students into 6 – 12 month internship placements across Sydney. Through his successful experiences in Australia, Matthew realised he was far better at working with people than numbers and in 2005 Matthew returned to the UK to continue his career in recruitment and HR.
Following this in-house success and over three years of research, Matthew felt there was a gap in the market for a company who could provide the talent sourcing expertise of a seasoned headhunter, with the HR knowledge and service quality levels of an In-house Recruitment & HR Manager.
