Dunfermline Building Society - the case for Valuing Relationships
The Dunfermline Building Society, established in 1869, is Scotland’s largest building society and plays an important part in the savings and mortgage market in Scotland. At the end of 2002 the Society had assets topping £1.7bn, an electronic distribution service and a network of 33 branches and 39 agencies. They employ approximately 25 IT staff but also have a significant project portfolio.
At Head Resourcing we have been working with Dunfermline Building Society since 2001 and during that period we have listened and learned about the culture and atmosphere of this iconic Scottish company. We work closely with Dunfermline, always listening to the brief, sourcing a people we know will be a close “fit”, and capable of working at their pace.
Over the years we have developed a good understanding of what they need and how they work, but we never take that relationship for granted. Dunfermline Building Society have choices and our job is to make sure they always choose us for their senior and middle management recruitment requirements.
Allen Mitchell the General Manager of Human Resourcing at Dunfermline Building Society says:
“Head Resourcing has been recruiting staff at senior and middle management level for us. They are very customer focussed and quickly gained an understanding of our business, requirements and culture. “
“They put a lot of effort into establishing and maintaining a good relationship, with regular communication and a friendly, relaxed style. The consultants listen to and respect what you say, and when you say leave something a couple of weeks they do. Unlike other recruitment consultancies, they are not in your face all the time".
“I like doing business with Head Resourcing, they are actually fun to deal with and they think of the little things. When they were changing their name, I was asked my opinion on the old name and various new ones, a courtesy I appreciated.”
