How we collaborate with potential candidates
Our relationship with candidates is core to our business, and to the success of our clients. It is a relationship that we cherish.
Many of our candidates have gone on to become clients, and vice-versa, and the key to a mutually successful relationship is that we work together based on shared trust.
This means that we will communicate clearly, promptly, and confidentially with you. We will disclose fully, and sometimes this means we will ask you to enter a mutual NDA. We respect the time you invest in the process, and that the decision to take on a new role is one that will impact you and your family, and is therefore not to be taken lightly. Our objective is to ensure the optimum fit between client and candidate, and to deliver a sustainable outcome for both parties.
In return we ask for your commitment to the process, and for full disclosure. If we mutually agree that you should meet our client, both our reputations are at stake – our mutual trust and respect is therefore paramount.
Clearly, not every candidate can secure the role. At the very least, we hope your experience with us has been enjoyable, that you have gained valuable experience from it, and we will stay in touch for the remainder of your career.
Passionate – Dedicated – Professional

In a rare departure from Teutonic efficiency, NOAH sees the German-speaking ecosystem of internet ventures, investors, and corporates all ‘up sticks’ and visit London for what is regarded by some as the leading internet conference in Europe these days. Over 1700 guests attended this year. Aside from the somewhat surreal experience of it feeling like you are in Berlin when you are actually in the capital of the UK - much of NOAH is really impressive...
What some candidates have said about Spectrum
Over my career, the two occasions I have dealt with Spectrum have been the most positive I can remember; even though neither resulted in a successful career move.
I have personally worked with Daniel Osmer who is very professional and has given me sound advice on career moves and placed me with a great fit, Block Solutions.
I want to echo my satisfaction in working with you: it’s been a pleasure working with you and I look forward to repeating this experience in the future! Of course, let’s keep in touch.
I very much valued my relationship with Daniel Osmer and the advice he gave throughout the process. He was open and honest and helpful in trying to read between the lines in terms of what the client wanted.
Thank you again, so much, for your inspired introduction. I am delighted to say that after a number of detailed discussions with the executive team, I have been offered the ‘Sales Director’ position and have accepted it!
