Hire talent.
From field engineer to director, across the UK and EMEA.
We know who's out there.
And who'll move.
Perigon Search is a specialist recruitment agency for critical power, critical cooling and HVAC employers, across the UK and EMEA.
The people you want to hire usually aren't looking. They're busy, well paid and their employer knows what they're worth. Job boards don't reach them. We do, because we've been talking to them for years.
We recruit for manufacturers, service companies, contractors and data centre operators. Engineers, managers, commercial hires and directors.
From first call to first day.
A short call.
Tell us about the role, or the problem if the role isn't clear yet. You'll get a straight read on who's out there, what they'll cost and how long it's likely to take.
The brief.
We agree the must-haves, the package and how the process will run. If the salary won't get you the person you want, you'll hear it now, not three weeks in.
The search.
We start with people we already know, then go after the ones we don't.
The shortlist.
Every candidate we send has been spoken to about your role. You'll know why they're on the list before you open the CV.
Interviews and offer.
We brief candidates before each stage and get feedback both ways. We handle the offer conversation so there are no surprises on salary or notice.
Through to start.
We prepare candidates for the counter-offer before it comes, and stay close right through notice to their first day.
Three ways to work together.
Contingency
You pay when we place.
Works when the role's clearly defined and there are people out there looking.
Exclusive
We're the only agency on the role for an agreed period.
You get our full attention and one clean process.
Retained
For senior, confidential or business-critical hires.
A committed search with a fee in stages.
Not sure which fits? We'll tell you straight what gives you the best chance of filling it.

Engineering, operations and site leadership hires.
FM, M&E and HVAC Contractors

In their words.
We've worked with recruitment companies before that promised a lot and delivered very little. Perigon were different.
Martin is very professional to deal with and always supplies candidates as per our brief.
Perigon gave us access to candidates we simply weren't reaching ourselves, and the quality of the shortlist was noticeably better.
Perigon knew the difference between a strong general HVAC engineer and someone who could genuinely operate in a critical environment.

How to hire engineers faster
The direct cost of a hire is only part of it. The real cost is the work that doesn't get done while the role is empty. Here's how to shorten the process without lowering the bar.
