Name of consulting firm[/b]Knox D’Arcy Ltd[b]2. About our company[/b]Knox D’Arcy is a UK-based international consultancy that specialises in helping its clients achieve significant bottom-line financial improvements in performance by implementing operational change. Established in 1986, we have grown mainly by referrals and recommendations and now undertake work in North and South America, Southern Africa as well as in the UK and Europe. We recognise that our greatest strength is the quality of our people and operate solely through employees as opposed to sub contractors in order to attract and develop the best people. [b]3. Types of clients we serve[/b]The majority of our clients are large private sector organisations although there is an increasing level of public sector work. Knox D’Arcy consciously does not limit itself to any one industry or sector nor to any one particular specialism. Our ‘product’ is a quantified improvement in profit and therefore our programmes cover many areas depending upon the nature of the industry and the clients’ requirements; this includes sales, procurement, labour productivity, plant utilisation, inventory, organisation & overhead structure and site rationalisation.[b]4. Types of recruitment we are most likely to be undertaking in the next 18 months[/b]Milkround recruiting (i.e. university finalists)Experienced hire recruiting[b]5. When candidates choose to join our firm it is usually because[/b]Firstly, they are attracted by the opportunity to be genuinely hands-on in the implementation of major change programmes as opposed to strategy or advisory consulting which is one step removed from the end result. Secondly, the great diversity of programme types which we afford our consultants means that everyone gets exposure across the sectors. As well as keeping things interesting, this also prevents stagnation and leads to the use of best practice from across differing industries. Finally, our consultants enjoy the challenge of working in a very entrepreneurial environment where they are encouraged to never accept that change cannot be successfully delivered.[b]6. Locations of our UK office(s)[/b]We are internationally headquartered in the Isle of Man. Employees are based all around the UK and their primary place of work is their client’s premises.[b]7.
