We help high-growth London brands in the services, consumer and technology industries as they build their Revenue Engines. To ensure employers access the right networks and sector knowledge, we have built our unique matrix structure. This means our London headhunters specialise in a specific industry or skill set, allowing them to connect top talent from their networks with high-performing brands.
Unlike how other London recruitment agencies work, 3Search's recruitment team delivers a truly bespoke experience for our employers. Everything we do is founded in our knowledge of London's competitive talent market, having operated in the space since 2014. With years of experience, our recruiters fuel long-term growth with our unique search model.
The search starts with our advisory stage, helping you build the brief right the first time. Here, we learn about your business, what you did to reach your current stage of growth, and where you plan to go next. This allows us to build you the commercial team you need.
Advisory servicesOnce we agree on the brief, our recruiters take the role to the London talent market (or further if the role is remote). Leveraging our networks, we ensure you meet the right talent for your organisation, presenting a shortlist in weeks (or days for contract jobs).

Developing talent
3Search has its headquarters in Central London. Based in Tottenham Court Road, we are a short walk away from some of the world's largest brands through to the fastest-growing scale-ups.
Some of the best marketers and salespeople started their careers in London. This global city is the engine of UK economic growth. Described by The Economist as 'the world's startup capital', our recruiters are operating at the heart of business growth.
Based in our London office, our specialist recruiters meet new employers and job seekers every day. With a deep understanding of what London companies need to scale, they are uniquely positioned to support your growth - whether through permanent additions or short-term contract hires.

London marketing and sales recruiters, like 3Search, partner with businesses across the capital to source the best talent to fuel growth.
Our London-based recruiters hire across the go-to-market cycle. We deliver mid to senior hires across sales, marketing and digital job titles.
Recruitment agencies charge a fee based on an agreed % of the placed candidate's salary. This is charged to the employer - not candidates.
There are three different ways of engaging 3Search. The right option for you depends on the recruitment challenge.
| Fee type | What you pay | What it's used for |
| Contingency | The recruitment agency charges the employer once they successfully fill the role. This model carries zero upfront risk and allows you to work with multiple agencies at once. | Most commonly used for junior to mid-level roles. |
| Exclusive | Like contingency, you only pay when the recruitment agency successfully fills the role. However, you commit to working with one agency, which results in a higher fee. | Most commonly used for hard-to-fill, niche roles or team builds. |
| Retained | Paid in three instalments, employers commit to a fee at the start of the search, shortlist delivery and placement. If the employer pulls the search, a cancelation fee is due. | Most commonly used for senior management and executive search hires. |
No, 3Search does not only work with London-based businesses. Our recruitment consultants operate across the UK. With wide-reaching networks nationwide, we have placed talent in Manchester, Hertfordshire, Dublin and Yorkshire - to name just a few.
We also support UK businesses as they expand internationally into Europe or North America. Our advisory services build your localised talent strategy, while our national networks ensure you hire the right talent.
