Beament Leslie Thomas is a leading niche, specialist recruitment company. We are widely recognised for our work in the following arenas: Management Consultancy, Indirect Tax, and Company Secretarial Services.

Established in 1987, BLT’s ambition was to become the leading recruitment consultancy in our chosen areas of specialisation.

We believe this philosophy is as relevant today as it was back then; to offer inch-wide, mile-deep knowledge of our chosen areas of expertise as a way to distinguish the calibre of our recruitment offering above and beyond our competitors.

The Secret Of Our Success?

Unrivalled depth of sector experience

26 years of relationships, expertise and outstanding candidates

An agility and an imaginative approach often missing from larger organisations.

Regular insightful salary surveys, market reports and intelligence.

CVs are never sent out without a candidate’s express permission and we endeavor to meet all our candidates where possible.

Our consultants have been with BLT an average of 10.8 years – a rare commodity in the recruitment world!

The right candidate for the right job. Simple as that.

Tailor-made solutions for every job search or candidate hunt.

Taking the time to meet you and learn what will work for you.

We’re in it for the long run – not a quick buck - ultimately it’s your decision

Our enjoyment of what we do is evident. What distinguishes us the most is our relationships with our clients and candidates.

We are constantly looking for new ways to engage with both clients and candidates. As well as the more tried and tested routes (nothing beats a phone call after all), we lead the way on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook.

Sarah Erickson

‘Alex Marshall, Director, CIL UK

“The BLT team understands our marketplace and our business well.

They have taken the time to understand what makes us different, and work hard to find consultants that have the potential we are looking for.

We aren’t a cookie-cutter business, and BLT understands that our culture is an output, not an input. The consultants at BLT are courteous and professional and I certainly feel like a valued client.

‘Alan Holroyd, i2a Consulting

“BLT have proved an insightful, efficient and effective recruitment partner over the last 10 years.

They took time to get to know us and so provide us with candidates who fit our culture really well. ”

‘Anke Mueller, AMR International

“I suspect AMR was not an easy client for BLT. We have quite particular needs, and might have come across as a bit difficult to please.

Kate worked hard to tease out exactly what it was we needed, and the candidates she then put forward were spot on.

We hired a number of people as a result and they are thriving.”

‘Claus Werner, Director, Ocean Strategy

“BLT has during the years been of extreme help to our business. From the beginning in 2002, we have had a very good relationship with BLT as they understand our business very well and are very efficient in helping us with our recruitment needs. Thus, we have benefitted greatly from BLT’s very active position and excellent network among both relatively new and more experienced consultants.

Particularly during the last 3 months where we have scaled up our recruitment efforts, BLT has been second to none in helping us filling several positions with top class candidates.”
