Webdesign UX/UI & Website Build
Designer Recruitment
View Live SiteThe challenge was to reposition the website as a true reflection of the calibre of the business behind it. Working within the premium, designer-led recruitment space, the existing site no longer matched the quality of the clients, candidates and placements the team had built their reputation around.
The objective was to create a more refined and confident digital presence balancing strong visual storytelling with a clear, intuitive user experience. Client relationships, standout placements and a catalogue of 150+ testimonials would become key proof points throughout the site, helping communicate both credibility and industry expertise.
Practicality
& Flexibility
Alongside the visual transformation, the website needed to provide greater long-term ownership and flexibility. The existing third-party CMS recruitment platform would remain integrated for live vacancies and candidate management, while the wider site would be built independently, giving the business a scalable foundation that could evolve alongside its growth.
Ultimately, the project was about bringing the digital experience in line with the reputation the business had already established offline.
Cara Tomkins, Head of Recruitment, Designer Recruitment“He took the time to really understand our business, our brand and what we wanted the website to represent, rather than simply creating something that looked good. The finished website is something we’re genuinely proud of and has given the business a much stronger online presence.”

A recruitment business lives or dies on whether a candidate stays long enough to register.
The rebuilt site loads 82% faster, scores twice what the old one did, and holds people 75% longer. Cara’s point above is the one that matters more: the brief was never to make something that looked good.
