Why we do what we do
Sarah Piper launched Invisible Partners back in 2017 because she saw an opportunity to do recruitment better.
So many businesses were struggling to find and retain talent, and she knew from experience that the top-down agency model wasn’t cutting it. Because finding the right people isn’t just about just filling a vacancy, it’s about establishing the common ground where a team can thrive.
So, for Sarah, creating her own community of talent professionals was equally important. She wanted to be surrounded by a team who were after a more flexible and holistic approach to recruitment.
And that’s why Invisible Partners is dedicated to doing things differently.
OUR ETHOS
At Invisible Partners we are people experts who know real changes come from the inside out. For us, great recruitment means understanding the people and the processes behind the hiring decisions.
Our four Invisible Pillars for success
01
Invisible and integrated
We don’t come in with rigid preconceptions. We sidle up, we learn, and we become an extension of your business.
02
Trustworthy and tailored
Your goals are our goals. We tailor our services to get the most out of each project. Accountability is key.
03
Fresh and approachable
We are reliable, friendly and always at-the-ready with fresh insights and an obliging attitude (warmth is invisible, just like us).
04
Dedicated to different
We are where we are because we do recruitment differently. And we’ll keep pushing boundaries as long as businesses keep needing talent.
