Prime People is a recruitment consultancy proving that a small company can still go big on employee benefits.
Headquartered in London, with a second UK office in Manchester, Prime People is a group of specialist recruitment businesses operating globally.
It specialises in the real estate, energy, environmental, technology, digital, construction, and engineering sectors.
The consultancy aims to build nurturing, long-term relationships with clients. And this also holds true with its employees. The consultancy values a work-life balance, and staff are encouraged to work flexibly and holiday flexibly too.
Everyone gets an extra day off for their birthday, and a Christmas hamper scheme is a chance to win even more leave days. And the longer staff spend at the company, the more generous their allowance becomes.
At certain job levels, people can take a paid month's sabbatical after five years of service. And if the day-to-day is getting a bit too much, staff can enjoy an early finish on Friday or even take an emergency duvet day.
Prime People staff know they're paid equitably, with strict and transparent job bandings across the business. Performance-related pay means all recruitment consultants have the same opportunities to earn uncapped commissions.
Commission or promotion aren't the only ways to boost income at Prime People. It incentivises employees to always be on the lookout for new recruits.
If somebody they've recommended gets taken on, they'll get £1000 on their start date, another £1000 when they pass their probation, and a final £1000 on the first promotion.
I have confidence in the leadership skills of the senior management team
The leadership team has developed a people charter. It holds an annual conference where all employees are invited to get together in person. It holds monthly team meetings which reinforce company values, mission, and objectives. These meetings have included the opportunity for employees to get involved in people and company strategies.
I feel I receive fair pay for the responsibilities I have in my job
In terms of pay increases and rewards associated with performance, it offers a completely transparent promotion scheme to all employees. This enables consultants to fast-track their careers and reach Director-level at their own rate. The scheme is designed to be measurable and fair; employees also have promotion opportunities every six months.
This organisation has a strong social conscience
Prime People continues to run its Salary Sacrifice scheme supporting a small orphanage in South Africa. One of its London team leaders has recently run a successful charity golf day to raise money for company charities. More employees have also run/walked 50 or 100k of the Thames Path to raise money.

Although we are now one of the larger recruitment groups operating internationally, it is very important to us to focus on remaining one of the very best to work for. Being the very best for me means that not only do we work together as a family, but we are also the very best connected both internally and externally.Our aim is not to be the biggest but to be the very best. Everything we do must be focused on quality and long-term relationships.
