Interim search & selection

Our clients want capable, successful, experienced marketers who are able to work on an interim basis. Assignments typically require a skill or industry specialisation and sometimes, both. Interim Management is usually a lifestyle choice as opposed to a necessity and we ask that you can provide references of recent projects completed.

Permanent search & selection

Our recruitment consultants carefully work with candidates to understand the mixture of skills, personality, industry background, salary and location in detail so that they can introduce you as potential candidates to leading businesses in the West and East Midlands with whom we have a regular dialogue.

Executive Level search & selection

2nd City has relationships with a number of important Chief Executives across the Midlands who ask us to recruit at a senior level. Not all of these positions are advertised.
