Need To Know
We feel very lucky to be able to say we’ve supported a heck of a lot of recruiters within their own agencies over the years. The big, the small, the tricky, the talented – we’ve been there, done it & have our fair share of war wounds to prove it.

I guess the point I’m trying to make is this; we feel pretty confident that before we’re even lucky enough to talk with you about what you are looking to achieve in your own agency, we have a sneaky suspicion we would be able to help. Therefore it only feels right to try and encourage you to spend some time looking at the makeup of the agencies we really do support.
In showing you just that, we hope that you might be able to see some similarities in what you might be thinking about doing while you sit there & read this website back to front & explore exactly what this team called Isotope is all about.

Education, construction, engineering; IT, commercial, healthcare; HR, renewables, creative & design; Space, AI, Emerging technologies; Medical devices, accountancy & finance, legal; the list could go on & on. The fact is there are so many sectors we’re lucky enough to be a part of at the moment & be supporting recruiters just like you in, right now.

Looking to run a temp’ desk from Day 1? Perhaps a perm’ only business? Or perhaps a dual-desk to ensure no client goes un-serviced? Whether it’s CIS, PAYE, Umbrella or Limited Company Contractors; perm’ only placements across the UK & overseas; or perhaps a both long term assignments & a sprinkle of perm’ placements here & there. Whatever you’re looking to do, the team here at Isotope have seen it, done it & love looking after it!

If Wally were an a client of Isotope? Everywhere & anywhere. Whether that’s trading from their spare room, garden office, or the offices of ABC Recruitment HQ – the chances are you’re not that far away from one of our Isotope clients at any time. As south as Truro, as north as Aberdeen; as west as Cardiff & as a East as Norwich – there really aren’t many places the Yellow cube hasn’t been.

Every recruiters definition of success within their agency is different; it’s not for Isotope to define nor anyone else – it’s your agency & therefore the only person who should define what success looks like is you. For a number of our clients, growing an agency & building a team is part of the reason why they do what they do. The great thing is, whether you’re a small independent or a megalomaniac looking to conquer the world, Isotope can help.

Studies have shown that there is not an individual more impatient than a recruitment business owner which is part of what makes them so successful. From the moment they open their doors & announce their business to the world, the focus understandably turns to making that all important first placement. For some it takes weeks, others it might take months. But, while market & restrictions play a part, we usually see it taking around 3-4 months for our clients to make their first placement.

What would you have to bill in your first year of trading to make the risks worthwhile for you? That’s a question we ask every recruiter we’re lucky enough to chat with about their ideas & ambitions around starting their own agencies. The answer? It depends. But over the years, we’ve seen trends – from £80,000 to the echelons of £200,000+, there’s no right or wrong here, just whatever works for you. Just look at the graph!

Can you start a recruitment agency with 0 experience? The answer is yes. But just because you can, doesn’t necessarily mean you should. There’s a lot to be said about the length of experience you ought to have prior to making the leap & launching your own agency. But like we often say, it’s not just a case of quantity but the quality of that experience as well. Here’s what we’ve seen over the years.

From 360 consultants, team leaders & branch managers to divisional managers, directors & shareholders – our clients leave a variety of employed positions to start & run their own agencies. What do we normally see? There’s often a correlation between a recruiter who have built & grown teams before & their desire to do so again in their own agency. But that’s not to say an ambitious 360 consultant can’t build an empire of their own. Take a look for yourself.

Do Isotope work with more solo recruiters looking to grow their own agencies alone, or dynamic duos ready to leave the shackles of employment and face the challenges that is running a recruitment business, together. The answer for Isotope is pretty clear with “solos” just sneaking it. Harrison Ford will be happy!
