We started jolly-verse because we saw a gap in the market. Traditional recruitment agencies charge eye-watering fees that make sense for corporations but squeeze the budgets of growing businesses. We believed there had to be a better way.
Eight years helping SMEs build stronger teams
Founded in London in 2018, jolly-verse emerged from a simple observation: small and medium businesses were being priced out of professional recruitment services. The traditional percentage-based fee model meant a single hire could cost thousands more than necessary.
Our founders had spent years in corporate recruitment and saw firsthand how smaller clients struggled. They set out to build something different: a fixed-fee model that delivers the same quality of service without the financial strain.
Today, we've helped over 850 businesses across the UK find more than 2,400 skilled professionals. From tech startups needing their first developer to established firms expanding their sales teams, we've built a track record of placements that stick.
No hidden costs, no surprise invoices. You know exactly what you'll pay before we start the search. Every candidate comes with full disclosure of their background and our assessment.
Your time is valuable. We don't send CVs to hit quotas. Every candidate we present has been vetted against your specific requirements and is genuinely interested in your opportunity.
We measure success by retention rates, not placement numbers. A hire that leaves after three months isn't a success for anyone. We look for long-term fits.
You'll have a dedicated consultant who learns your business inside out, not a rotating cast of account managers.
Skills assessments, video interviews, and reference checks happen before candidates reach you.
If your expectations don't match the market, we'll tell you. Better to adjust early than waste weeks on an impossible search.
Our job doesn't end at offer acceptance. We check in during probation to ensure a smooth transition.
