SME News Northern Enterprise Awards 2023 / 126 Executive Search Agency of the Year 2023 - North West When Kelly Nolan stepped out of the corporate world and into running her own business, it was because she had a vision to do things differently. Kelly’s company, KMN Consult Ltd (KMN), is a boutique executive search company operating across the building, construction, materials, and manufacturing industries. KMN works with businesses to define and execute their recruitment strategy to find the best talent around. We chat with Kelly to find out more. Recruitment is an industry where reputation is everything. With so much negative press surrounding recruitment companies, new businesses have to start smart or not at all. Building a reputation for integrity and fair play isn’t only a means of differentiation. As a boutique agency, having the right ethos from day one can be make or break. One company that’s been getting it right from the offset is KMN Consult Ltd. Based in Stockport, Cheshire, the company has quickly developed a big reach. Working with clients from local SMEs to global corporations, KMN’s driver is its vision to inspire change in the recruitment industry. Taking pride in the service it provides, KMN offers expert knowledge combined with clear, honest, and efficient processes. Kelly tells us, “We understand that everything good comes from strong relationships. We endeavour to form world-class partnerships with both our clients and candidates. Being inquisitive, we seek a true understanding of our clients’ businesses and their challenges to find the best solutions.” As a career recruitment consultant and recruitment manager with a career spanning 17 years, Kelly’s knowledge and experience are pivotal to the success of the company. Being all too aware of how some recruitment agencies are perceived, Kelly is prioritising relationships to ensure KMN’s clients receive the best service, every time. Having cultivated a strong industry network, Kelly has built her business on referrals and recommendations, creating partnerships that stand the test of time. She says, “We act as a partner to our clients. We provide outstanding service and help to promote their business. KMN is an independent business, driven by results and solutions that put the customer first.” Since its creation in 2020, the company has undergone some major changes. Kelly explains, “KMN was founded just before the pandemic. Since then, we’ve invested in systems and processes to ensure we can offer the best service and solutions for our clients. The industries we serve are facing challenges in identifying and attracting the talent they need. Working with the right partner helps to identify the best strategy and find the right people, and that’s what we do. We are not a corporate business. That makes us different, and our reputation in the industries we serve speaks for itself.” There’s no doubt Kelly’s mission to deliver excellence is the driver behind KMN’s success story and that’s not about to change. She says, “Our plan for the future is to continue to serve our market to the highest of standards. We’re committed to helping our clients’ businesses grow by helping them make the strategic hires they need to make that happen. In 2024, we will be looking to service more clients in our space.” If you’re interested in finding out how KMN Consult can help take your business to the next level, please visit the company website.
