OUR CONTRACT PROFESSIONALS ARE OUR PRIORITYContract assignees often feel ‘disengaged’ because of the nature of contracting. We believe in the value of looking after our people well, and are unique in our industry for the quality of service we offer our team of professionals.
we place our people with care Assigning our professionals well is the recipe for success in our industry. We place unusually high importance on the suitability of the placements we negotiate for our assignees, and we have an exceptionally high placement rate due to our approach. We never just ‘plug gaps’, taking care in the placement of our teams. This is reflected in our extremely high contract extension rate. we support our people on assignment We take pains to remain close to our professionals while on assignment, maintaining a continual presence at our client sites and nurturing relationships with both our professionals on site and client operational management, to identify and proactively respond to changing circumstance, possible conflicts, key business decisions or new challenges being experienced. we invest in the professional growth and development of our people We firmly believe that a positive attitude deserves rewards, and are exceptional in our policy of investing in our professionals through the provision of assistance for training and skills development. We have grown a reputation for the extent of our investment in our independent consulting professionals, as well as for our efforts in identifying, developing and mentoring young talent. we assist where we can with ‘hygiene’ factors It is often the least important aspects of an assignment which become genuine deciding factors as to whether to persevere with a decision. Factors such as finding parking in crowded city centres, timesheet completion and collection, tailoring of a remuneration structure, submitting tax returns, and even finding one’s way in complex corporate environments may render the most positive attitude surly after a while. We assist wherever we can in these instances, providing secure parking bays at cost price wherever possible, collecting signed timesheets and facilitating signature where feasible, collaborating with you to structure your remuneration in a manner which meets your needs, introducing you to clients and colleagues on assignment, managing your annual tax returns and generally going the extra mile – a far cry from the ‘sink or swim’ philosophy applied by most contract houses! we keep you close and put you in touch Maintaining a close-knit team is exceptionally difficult when the team is geographically dispersed and has a dual allegiance to us and to the clients to which they are assigned. We endeavour by means of regular social events, frequent site visits and newsletters to keep you in touch with us and each other, and to meet other professionals who one day may be able to assist you, or whom you may be able to assist. we reward you for aiding our growth It has been our privilege over the years to place many high calibre professionals based on the referral of other syncwize professionals, and we are continually on the lookout for the best talent, clients and opportunities in the market. Our philosophy of providing best quality and reasonable rates - and remaining relationship-rich in all our engagements - does constrain our ‘sales’ activities, so a continual flow of good referrals is always welcome. We choose to reward such referrals upon the successful placement of a candidate referred, a vacancy filled, a new client opportunity opened up, or any combination of the above. we believe in giving our professionals a home Our company is nothing without our professionals, and we strive to service them well, ensuring we understand their work environment and providing support, a network of other professionals to talk to, financial and other assistance in skills development, and on-going attention to their personal growth. Our operating philosophy toward our contractors is one of a ‘serving’ company, and we look forward to being able to make a difference in our contractors’ lives that no other contract house is prepared to do. |
