Recruitment Resourcer

Who we are

It all started in 2019. Our founders, David (Blair) and Simon (West), had a vision for a progressive recruitment business. They set out to build a business that approached recruitment differently; by treating their team as adults and giving them the autonomy to manage their own desks. Now with 20 employees, they have built a boutique search business focused on portfolio & equity houses and high-growth businesses, which works across Executive Search, Finance, Technology, Engineering, Commercial and HR. 

We are a team of high-performing, aspirational, talented and fun professionals. We deliver work to an exceptional standard. We immerse ourselves in our client’s stories, building lasting relationships and offering consultation when needed.  

Our mission is to build and maintain an environment where the most talented, intelligent and aspirational recruitment professionals choose to work. 

Our values were defined at the outset and continue to pulse through our business daily. We use our values as a benchmark for our behaviours, and you’ll find it at every stage of employment during a career at Blair West: 

• We keep raising the bar

• We listen first
