From safer recruitment and DBS checks to right-to-work and sector-specific requirements — compliance is built into everything we do.

Post-Placement Support
Our service doesn’t stop once someone starts. We follow up with you and your new team member to support a smooth integration and reduce the risk of early turnover.


🚀 Our Unfair Advantage

What makes OLightOn different? We combine recruitment with career coaching to help every candidate hit the ground running — not just fit the role, but thrive in it.

Thanks to our background in employability and coaching, we offer support that most recruiters simply can’t:
  • Pre-placement coaching
  • Onboarding guidance
  • Early check-ins to support retention and performance
What this means for you:
  • Stronger alignment – We dig deeper into candidate motivations and values.
  • Better retention – Coached candidates are more self-aware and resilient.
  • Smoother transitions – New hires settle in faster with fewer early-stage challenges.
  • Less pressure on managers – Our prep and support reduce the day-one burden
This added layer of care is available for both temporary and permanent hires.
