About Us
People-shaped Recruitment and Human Resources Solutions
We believe that the best companies’ Recruitment and Human Resource solutions are built around one thing: great people. Sounds obvious, doesn’t it? Yet how many times have you worked with companies that promise tailored recruitment and HR solutions, then deliver an off-the-shelf package that fails to take your people into account? That’s why we set up The Curve Group in 2004.
Sixteen years later, we still think in a people-shaped way. That means people are at the heart of everything we do – in our business and in yours. So our solutions are built around your people as much as around your processes. We invest in the time it takes to get right under the skin of your business and to build confidence and trust through a fair, transparent and open approach.
Transforming Working Lives
We create extraordinary people solutions that transform working lives. We’re one of the few providers in the UK who can provide agile, ethical and configurable people solutions across the entire HR and Recruitment spectrum.
We have deep knowledge of HR and Recruitment – we know the jargon, but we don’t always use it unless we’re sure you know it too. We lay things out in simple terms to clearly map out how we will support you to develop your people. Our approach puts you in control as we can reconfigure our services to meet your needs as they evolve.
Value Driven Culture
Even as we’ve grown, our core company culture has remained and is one of our key differentiators. We have been able to build and retain our unique, dynamic company culture through the personification of our CAPE Values, empowering our teams to live and breathe theses values:
Creating Relationships
Realising Ambitions
Being Passionate
Exploring Possibilities
We’ve coined the term ‘Curvy Way’ and this reflects how our team embody our values and continue to foster a tangible culture which we love and our clients and partners alike get to experience first-hand. It is because of our people, our values and our strong company culture that we have been able to continue growing year on year. Everyone in The Curve Group reflects the same values and it’s these values that stand us apart from the crowd.
Awards Aren’t Everything But…
We’re happy to have been recognised as an innovative and disruptive company – in our own industry and across every sector. We’ve won a few awards and received notable recognition over the years including:
Most Innovative Recruiter – Recruitment International
Recruitment Process Outsourcer (RPO) of the Year – In-House Recruitment Network
Best Customer Focus – The Best Business Awards
Workplace Wellbeing – The Regional Chamber of Commerce Business Awards
Best Contractor Recruitment Agency – The Contracting Awards
Recognised – in the Eveline Future 50 List as one of the UK’s Top 50 most disruptive companies in any industry
But perhaps the most important accolades come from our clients, partners and candidates – these are the ones we receive on a daily basis and affirm that we do indeed transform working lives.
Ethical Partners
Ethics are at the heart of our business and we’re members of the Association of Professional Staffing Companies (APSCo). Their code demands the highest principles of professionalism, integrity, fair practice and ethics in dealing with employers, candidates and other recruitment firms. We’re working with them to shape the Recruitment industry and the latest thought leadership.
Compliance is King
We are registered with the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) under the Data Protection Act 2010 as a data controller. We’re committed to maintaining the standards required regarding personal and sensitive data. We’re also an accredited Financial Services Supplier Qualification System (FSQS) validated supplier organisation. This reflects our conscientious approach to keeping our clients safe through a robust framework of operations and compliance processes and procedures. As part of this, we’ve received our Cyber Essentials certification meaning that our business is protected against common cyber-attacks.
