FAQs

What type of roles do you deal with?

We work as a flexible recruitment agency, helping our members on all different types of roles from Senior Administrator positions to Finance Managers, Marketing Managers, Non-Exec Directors and everything in between. Unfortunately we can’t help with health workers, drivers or catering staff.

Are your roles only 10-2?

Absolutely not. There are many different working patterns and we work with our clients and members to explore what might suit them the best. We find that part-days or part-weeks are the most popular flexible working formats. Read more here to see what other formats might work for you, like working from home or job shares.

Do you get term time only roles?

In general, term time only roles tend to only be available in the education sector. So occasionally roles might come up, but most commercial businesses require support all year round. If you’re worried about covering the school holidays, we find that this is generally possible with a combination of holiday allowance, your own family holiday and some organised childcare.

Will you send my CV to clients?

We only send your details to clients with your express permission. We’ll contact you about possible flexible or part-time roles and make sure that you are interested before discussing you and your skills with our clients.

I’m not sure what I want to do

If you are returning to work, it can sometimes be challenging to know what to do. We often talk to professionals who have held senior positions in the past, but who are seeking something with more balance. Give us a call if this sounds like you – we have lots of ideas to help you find the ideal flexible working formats and more. For example, we know some talented career coaches.

Can you help with my CV?

Yes, one of our most popular development workshops is creating the best CV you can. Your CV is very personal and is your ‘shop window’, so we won’t write it for you but we can give you some pointers to make you stand out from the crowd.

Do you help men as well?

Of course. We’re happy to work with any professionals seeking more flexibility in their working lives. We are a flexible and part-time recruitment agency, so we have a number of male members together with carers of elderly parents and horse and dog lovers too.

Do you charge for your services?

Our work seeking services is free, together with our member development workshops. Occasionally, a small charge might be made for an exceptional flexible working development event but this would be made very clear at the time.

“Lord’s Taverners used Ten2Two for the first time towards the end of 2022 to recruit a new position of Trustee Board and Governance Administration Officer. Our experience with Jo was excellent. She understood the brief and was able to identify some excellent candidates for interview. The process was seamless and efficient, an excellent experience. We would recommend using Ten2Two for flexible recruitment needs. The position was filled with an excellent candidate, who has hit the ground running! Thank you Jo and the team at Ten2Two.”

“Having worked with several recruitment companies in the past, I found Ten2Two’s approach to be recognisably different in terms of their partnership approach, high levels of responsiveness and superior customer service that they provided. What’s more they achieved a result in the tight timescales provided. I have no hesitation in recommending Ten2Two for your recruitment requirements.”

We have been kept in the loop on the recruitment process, had great candidates and successfully recruited a new team member. As a growing company, we will be going back to the team at Ten2Two for more skilled staff in the future.

The quality of candidates was exceptional and every one was worth the time we spent interviewing them. In both instances we were left with a difficult but enviable choice. The two new members of staff have made an immediate impact on the business and are a perfect fit with our company culture and ambition. I can’t recommend Ten2Two enough for the service they provided.

I can’t believe it’s been over 2 months since Latoya started with us and she’s been fabulous! She’s a really quick learner and has settled into the role very well. She’s great to work with and gets on well with other members of staff. A great flexible worker .

I needed experienced people with diverse skills but didn’t need them every day at this stage of the companies development. Using freelancers and contractors supplied by Ten2Two has enabled me to win new clients and grow.

Rosie Seldon

Director E-wavelength

The service Ten2Two provided us, from writing our job description, screening, interviewing and then delivering handpicked candidates according to our brief, meant that we could focus on their skills and attributes in relation to the best fit with our team. We were amazed at the calibre and quality of all the candidates and wished we had capacity to recruit more.

Ten2Two helped our business recruit for three positions across three departments, delivering strong professionals with the required skill sets. I have recommended them to several other people and will use them again in the future. They are tapping into a highly talented and under used pool of talent.

Barnaby Oswald, Managing Director

The Local data company

Ten2Two helped me to find the right professional for our business quickly and efficiently from their talented community of professionals. My initial requirement was for a part-time book keeper but what we found was someone with a broader skill set who has also been able to help the business in various areas from finance to marketing.

I was delighted with the calibre of candidates Ten2Two Kent provided for us for our HR Manager role. The selection process was difficult but we are delighted with our new recruit who continues to add value to our practice six months on working on a full week but short days .
