Human Resources

Recruitment Agencies fill permanent vacancies; Staffing Services supply temporary and contract cover, often at volume; Executive Search is retained headhunting for senior and board appointments. The rest is the work that happens once people are on the payroll — HR Consulting, Compensation & Benefits, Employee Engagement & Wellbeing, Background Screening and Outplacement Services for when roles are cut.

The systems that run all this are listed as HR & Payroll Software under Software & Technology, and the firms that process the payroll under Accounting & Finance. Tribunal claims, contracts and dismissals are Employment Law, under Legal Services, while Corporate Training and Leadership Development are under Education & Training.
