about arras

Arras People was established in response to the growing demand for quality, experienced project office support resources within many of today's organisations.

This, coupled with the often complex nature of projects, programmes and project offices in today's business, resulted in Arras People focusing purely on supplying these specialist roles.

More recently Arras People has added to its service by providing Programme and Project Management recruitment in response to a growing demand by our clients.

Arras People now provides excellent project management candidates alongside our professional project office support personnel across all industry sectors.

knowledge based recruitment

Our "knowledge based approach" simply means our consultants have all worked as practitioners within the field of programmes and projects at some point in their careers.

This experience provides us with numerous benefits and differentiators when working with our clients to find the strongest candidate for their open roles. We pride ourselves in being able to:

• understand the programme and project objectives within an organisation
• quickly understand the organisations project culture
• understand the structures, processes and tools in use
• gather information about an organisations ethos and culture and the people it attracts
• assist in developing job and person specifications where they are not available

Our approach gives the following benefits when talking to our candidates:

• We understand the role they perform
• We work to understand the experience and qualifications they have gained
• We spend time finding out about the person behind the C.V
• We represent all our candidates accurately and with great care
• We represent our clients with accuracy and great care

Our respect for both parties gives us a key differentiator, we do not just broker CV's and as a consequence we have hundreds of project professionals already registered with us and satisfied clients who come back for more.
