About us
Certified Workday® Staffing Partner Here at Skillsearch, we're a recruitment company. In the simplest form, this means we place people at new companies - but actually, it's so much more than that. We exist to make recruitment as quick and easy as possible for everyone involved. When you work with us you're signing up for support throughout the whole process from planning interviews to salary negotiation. Rather than trying to sell a 'dream job' or finding you 'top talent', we work hard to make matches between people and companies that genuinely fit well together. Our company is made up of a team of dedicated consultants who work across a range of niche technologies including Games, Virtual Reality, AR and XR, Workday®, Oracle, Peoplesoft, SAP and Data, and we are always exploring other cutting-edge markets. That means even if you don't see your area in that list, please get in touch and we'll be happy to talk through with you how we can help. We have worked in over 35 countries in the last 12 months alone and alongside our Brighton office we have a dedicated team based in the Philippines for the China and EMEA market, the US for the North America market, and soon to be a 4th office in the MENA region - so when we say we work across the globe we really mean it (although breaking into the Arctic/Antarctic market hasn't been overly successful so far...) Follow us to see a few of the jobs we're working on, find out which events you can see us at, and keep up with news in the technology, gaming and interactive world. Welcome to Skillsearch!

1 more sleep to go until SpecialEffect's One Special Day!! 😃 This time tomorrow at Skillsearch HQ we will have bellies full of English brekkie (cooked by our Ops team) and we will see who in the team has decided to dress up as a Hero or a Villain 🦸🦹 But the real question is...what have Joe McKernan and Eleanor Dean opted for our CEO Richard Fisher 🔜 DevGAMM Lisbon's fancy dress to be?! 🤔😄
Thank you to everyone involved with this year’s fabulous timetable of One Special Day activities and studio events!
