The client

Cameron Kennedy is an independent, market-leading recruitment agency with over 25 years’ experience in Financial Services, Accountancy & Finance, Technology, FinTech, and the Public Sector. Known for long-standing client partnerships and access to high-calibre candidates, the firm supports permanent, temporary, and contract recruitment across the UK and internationally.

The challenge

For a business operating at pace across multiple sectors, reliable background screening is non-negotiable. Cameron Kennedy had partnered with a large provider for many years but began to face significant issues:

  • Slow turnaround times delaying candidate placements.
  • Poor service quality and lack of responsiveness.
  • A pricing model that changed frequently, making forecasting difficult.

These frustrations added unnecessary pressure to their recruitment process and eroded confidence in their provider.
