At Elvis Eckardt Recruitment, we believe recruitment should do more than fill vacancies.
Every successful hire creates value for a business. We believe it can also create a lasting impact within the local community.
That's why we launched Recruitment That Gives Back. A unique initiative that allows businesses to secure the talent they need while directly supporting grassroots sport and community development.
How It Works
The concept is simple. Once per month, we partner with one organisation on a standard recruitment assignment.
We deliver the search with the same professionalism, commitment and market expertise that our clients expect.
The difference? Following a successful placement, 100% of our recruitment fee is invested into a grassroots sports club or community sports initiative selected together with our client.
The Process
What Could Your Hire Fund?
The impact can be significant. A single recruitment project could help fund:
Every placement helps create opportunities for the next generation.
Why Businesses Get Involved? To Access Exceptional Talent.
We support businesses across the UK and internationally with:
Since 2019, we have successfully partnered with SMEs, scale-ups, global consultancies, engineering firms, technology companies, financial services organisations and FTSE-listed businesses.
Create Genuine Social Impact
Most businesses already allocate budget to recruitment.
This initiative simply allows that same investment to create an additional legacy beyond the successful hire.
Your organisation gains the talent it needs while helping strengthen local communities.
Real Examples Of Community Impact
Typical permanent recruitment fees range between 10% and 15% of first-year salary.
A successful hire doesn't just help your business grow. It can also create a meaningful investment in grassroots sport and local communities.
The recruitment fee is already part of the hiring investment. This initiative simply allows that investment to create an additional legacy beyond the successful hire.
Why Grassroots Sport? Because Grassroots Sport Changes Lives.
It promotes physical and mental wellbeing, builds confidence, teaches teamwork and creates opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds.
Many local clubs operate on limited budgets while providing an invaluable service to their communities.
By connecting recruitment with community investment, we can help ensure these organisations continue to thrive.
Let's Build Something Bigger Than Recruitment
If your business is hiring and would like your next recruitment project to leave a lasting legacy within the local community, we'd love to have a conversation.
Together, we can secure the talent your business needs while helping local sport continue to make a difference.
