What’s the real cost of a vacant position

Vacant positions can quietly drain your business of resources, morale, and opportunity.

Lost productivity

Are team members juggling workloads or covering extra responsibilities to compensate for the vacancy?

Missed Opportunities

Without key roles filled, are projects delayed, or clients left waiting?

Declining Quality

Is the lack of oversight or ownership impacting standards and processes?

Reputation Risks

Prolonged vacancies can hurt your brand. What do candidates think when they see the same role advertised for weeks or months?

Kirsty I can’t recommend you enough for your support in finding the right calibre candidates! Keep doing what you do!
Damien
Kirsty has always had an incredible talent for recruiting, and I can personally attest to this from my own experience interviewing with you. You have a unique ability to make candidates feel at ease, you actively listen, and you're always straight forward about the role at hand...
Laura
You have been such a great support, keep up the great professional spirit.

Working with Kirsty at SKM Impact Solutions, has been a breath of fresh air in the recruitment world. From our very first conversation, it was clear that this wasn’t going to be a typical ‘CV-pushing’ experience. Instead, what we received was a truly tailored headhunting service, built on deep understanding, honesty, and attention to detail. Over the past year, Kirsty has successfully placed four key members of our team, an Estimator, an Operations Manager, a Health & Safety Professional, and most recently, a Site Manager. Each hire has not only stayed with the business but has proven to be the right cultural and professional fit. That’s no accident, it’s the result of Kirsty taking the time to fully understand our business, our values, and exactly what we need from our people. The calibre of candidates we've been presented with has been high. Every individual sent through has been thoroughly vetted, aligned with our expectations, and ready to make an impact from day one. I can confidently say that Kirsty does exactly what she says she will do, no fluff, no wasted time, just outstanding service and results. If you're looking for a recruiter who genuinely partners with your business and delivers the right people, not just any people, I couldn’t recommend Kirsty and SKM Impact Solutions highly enough.
Mark LoftusManaging Director
We turned to Kirsty in urgent need of a Scaffolding Manager following a surge in commercial work. Due to contract demands, we needed a prompt appointment and Kirsty wasted no time. Within just 3–4 days, she had lined up several highly competent candidates. One of them turned out to be exactly what we were looking for: a perfect fit for our company who hit the ground running. I can’t recommend Kirsty enough and will definitely be turning to her again for future recruitment needs.
Luke BrumheadManaging Director
We recently worked with SKM Impact Solutions on a recruitment drive and were thoroughly impressed with the service throughout. Kirsty, in particular, was outstanding, proactive, responsive, and genuinely focused on understanding our needs from day one. The difficult task was finding the right personality along with the skill set to fit our already fantastic team, Kirsty definitely delivered on that front. She kept us well-informed at every stage and ensured that every candidate put forward was of a consistently high standard. Nothing was too much trouble, and the whole process felt smooth, efficient, and well-managed. What really stood out was the level of attention and care, far beyond what we’ve experienced with other agencies. It felt like a partnership rather than just a service. Would highly recommend SKM and Kirsty to any business looking for quality recruitment support that’s professional, reliable, and tailored.
