Terms

Items one to five are the total Terms and Conditions which govern the recruitment services undertaken by September Consulting Ltd t/a RECRUITERS. 

1.  Notification of Successful Hire

A client undertakes to notify RECRUITERS immediately on agreeing to an engagement with any applicant who has been introduced by the recruitment partner during the preceding 12 months and to pay the recruitment partner an introduction fee due in accordance with clause 2 hereof within 30 days of the receipt of invoice.

2.  Invoicing

Once an offer is made by the client and has been accepted by the job applicant, the recruitment partner will invoice the client on the applicant's agreed start date.  The invoice becomes payable within the next 30 days of this start date. 

3.  Refund of placement fee

Provided that our placement fee has been settled in full within the agreed 30 days, should the employment of an applicant, who was introduced by the recruitment partner, terminate within 12 weeks, excluding company redundancies (the recruitment partner cannot accept responsibility or issue a refund for a candidate who is made redundant by the client as these circumstances are beyond our control), the agency will guarantee a replacement. In the event the Client does not wish to replace the placement, the placement fee will be credited or refunded by the recruitment partner in the following manner: 

  • Candidate leaving within 4 weeks – 100% refund;
  • Candidate leaving within 8 weeks – 50% refund;
  • Candidate leaving within 12 weeks – 25% refund. 

4.  Liability

Applicants introduced to the client are carefully sourced and selected for the relevant vacancies to be filled. The recruitment partner endeavours to take up references but the client should take all necessary steps to obtain confirmation of the applicant’s necessary skills, qualifications, and general integrity.  The ultimate decision to hire an applicant will be the clients. The recruitment partner can accept no liability for any kind of loss or damage to property or for any loss, including without prejudice, to the generality of the foregoing loss of profits, or for any injury to persons arising directly or indirectly from any act or omission of any applicant introduced by the recruitment partner, even if such act or omission is negligent or fraudulent or reveals dishonesty.   

5. Statutory Compliance 

The recruitment partner is committed to compliance with all statutory requirements, specifically the General Data Protection Regulation.  We assert our position as Data Controllers in respect of the candidate data collected by us and shared with our clients.  Data shared with the client is for the purpose of the recruitment process alone and no authorisation is either imputed or inferred regarding the use of the applicant’s personal data beyond that very narrow purpose.   In that respect, we recognise that our clients are also Data Controllers and we act as Joint Controllers.  Both the recruitment partner and the Client warrant to be compliant with GDPR and will keep the other indemnified against any liabilities in respect of any breach of personal data.  Once the applicant is employed by the Client, the recruitment partner ceases to have a joint Controller relationship with the Client in respect of each individual applicant, now an employee of the Client.  

6.  Our Service

September Consulting was established in 2006 with the express intention of putting the consulting back into recruitment.  Our standard service is a hybrid of database/contingency recruitment and selection.  Our highly trained recruitment consultants will only submit candidates for interview who have expressed a sincere interest in joining your company.  We will meet you to ensure our message to the marketplace about you as an organisation compliments your overall strategic objectives.  We view ourselves as an extension of your management team and will endeavour to represent you to all candidates as an employer of choice. 

To request a quote for any of our employer services, please contact our Director of Client Services, Brian McFadden. You can also email Brian directly here.

7.  Acceptance

We deem our terms and conditions to be accepted indefinitely should you engage our services by inviting any of the applicants, introduced by the recruitment partners, for interview. This applies to both a contract of service and for services. 

Any re-negotiations on terms and conditions can only be entertained with 14 days’ notice in writing by the client and will not include any work previously carried out and will only apply to future work carried out after the request has been made.

We look forward to working with you and would like to take this opportunity to wish your organisation continued growth, success, and prosperity with our recruitment advice and the talent that we will source to achieve your company goals.
