As a recruitment business we introduce candidates to clients for permanent employment, temporary worker placements or independent professional contracts. The exchange of personal data of our candidates and our client contacts is a fundamental, essential part of this process.

In order to support our candidates’ aspirations and our clients’ resourcing needs we require a database of candidate and client personal data containing historical information as well as current resourcing requirements.

To maintain, expand and develop our business we need to record the personal data of prospective candidates and client contacts.

Yes we do – for example If we find you a position at a client and you are operating as a contractor our internal payroll and finance departments will then hold and process relevant elements of your data for their purposes. In addition, appropriate data will be sent to our appointed pension provider on your behalf. You may also nominate an umbrella or accountancy company to pay you.

If you have a limited company we may share relevant information with our preferred insurance provider with your consent. In these instances they will review the information to ensure that limited company contractors hold valid sufficient insurances.

We will also share relevant data regarding your assignment with clients from time-to-time.
