Why NM exists
NM began as a full-service HR consultancy, recruitment alongside outsourcing, HR consulting and training. That starting point still shapes how we work. We came to recruitment from inside the HR function, which is why our first instinct on a difficult brief is to ask whether the role is designed correctly, not simply to start sourcing against it.
The firm was founded in 2022 by Natasha, who remains its owner and chief executive, and it is deliberately small enough that a client speaks to the person doing the work. Every mandate is owned end to end by a named consultant. There is no account manager relaying updates from a delivery team you never meet.
We work with startups and established businesses alike, across technology, aviation and travel, logistics and financial services, and increasingly across the wider set of sectors where our consultants have depth. What has stayed constant is the standard we hold: a short, calibrated shortlist, an honest read on the market, and the difficult conversation early rather than at week six.

Six commitments we hold ourselves to
Specialist recruiters
The consultant screening your engineers works engineering roles every week. Sector fluency is the difference between a filtered shortlist and a forwarded inbox.
Quality over volume
We would rather send three strong profiles on day two than fifteen near-matches on day one. Shortlist-to-interview conversion is the metric we manage to.
Faster shortlisting
Typically 48 hours to first profiles on a calibrated role, and an honest warning at kick-off when a role will take longer.
Industry expertise
Twelve sector practices, each with its own view of who is hiring, what they pay and which talent pools genuinely exist.
Confidential search
Neutral briefs, controlled disclosure and NDA-backed process as standard for replacement and pre-transaction hires.
A dedicated consultant
One named person owns your mandate end to end. You speak to the researcher, not an account manager relaying updates.
