Our services.
Our three streams of services cater to both employers and individuals. As well as recruitment, we also offer personalised career coaching to help individuals reach their career goals and team-based development training to help businesses achieve success through stronger relationships.
Recruitment
We take the time to get to know both employers and candidates, gaining a solid understanding of what you both do and who you both are. This method allows us to source professionals that fit the job description and blend with your company’s culture.
Our recruitment process is tailor-made to get the right person for your business. We go about our work with care, honesty, and consideration, utilising a scientific approach to get the best possible people for you.
Everything is about quality over quantity.

"Laura listens 100% to our requirements rather than sending over a wide range of CVs and hoping we like one."
“Laura has assisted us build our new QS and PM team in Manchester. As a new name in the city centre it was important to get our recruitment process right.
She is very thorough in preparing candidates for interviews / discussions and listens 100% to our requirements rather than sending over a wide range of CVs and hoping we like one.
I would highly recommend using Laura and we will be using her ourselves again in the very near future.”

“The preparatory work Laura did in getting to know our business meant she knew exactly what we were looking for.”
“We’re powered by the quality of our people, so it was super important that we found the perfect fit for us, both in terms of culture and ability.
Working with some recruiters often feels like a numbers game, where a huge selection of candidates are thrown at you with little thought. The preparatory work Laura did in getting to know our business meant she knew exactly what we were looking for.
Our new copywriter has not only helped us deliver some of our best work, but has slotted into the Luma team, fully embracing and adding to our ethos and culture.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Authentic Talent to anyone looking to find a candidate to take their business to the next level.”

"Laura has repeatedly turned up trumps with more than appropriate candidates."
“Whilst I’ve been at several different companies, I’ve repeatedly worked with Laura now for a good number of years.
And when it comes to recruitment and assessing the client brief for the role - in terms of competencies, personal skillsets and character - Laura has repeatedly turned up trumps with more than appropriate candidates for the required position.
In short, when looking to engage with a recruitment company, ‘would highly recommend’”
- Ian Bradshaw, 4Ward Ltd
Career Coaching
Our coaching service provides a tailored support plan for those looking to progress or make a change in their careers. We work closely with you to establish your aims and career goals before analysing your skills and industry experience. From there, we look at how to get you where you want to be, helping you put together an action plan to reach your career goals.
Team Development
Our development services use the strength deployment inventory (SDI) to give you the tools you need to foster an effective, high functioning team. The SDI is an assessment and training tool with a deep emphasis on interpersonal relationships, motives and individual strengths.
Armed with a new understanding, your team members will be equipped to work harmoniously and effectively towards shared goals.
