About us

Who We Are

Pentagon Talent specialises in legal and accountancy recruitment. Part of the Morgan Hunt Group, the business was born out of the success of our public sector business.

We connect organisations with the best business professionals the market has to offer. Our 360-degree service and extensive networks help organisations and jobseekers achieve their hiring and career goals.

Our mission is to provide unbeatable recruitment solutions to private sector organisations within the professional services industry by using consultative, transparent, and efficient practices that connect them with the best, hard-to-reach talent in the market.

 

What make us different?

We care about your success, just as much as our own.

Pentagon Talent isn’t your average recruitment agency. With a strong connection to the public sector, where moral and ethical values are high, we adopt these in private sector recruitment.

We care about the success of our clients and candidates

We understand that every candidate is unique, and every client is different. That’s why we build an emotional connection with clients and candidates. Whether you’re recruiting or looking for your next job, you will receive a tailored service from a team that cares. And that includes clear and transparent feedback for every candidate post-interview.

 

 

 

A small team with a big heart

Born out of a public sector recruitment agency, Pentagon Talent is big enough to make an impact but small enough to care. Pentagon Talent is supported by the infrastructure of Morgan Hunt, a national recruitment agency. This means we have access to resources including compliance, candidate services, IT, finance, and marketing. Specialising in legal and accounting practices, we have a reliable team who are experienced in modern recruitment challenges.

Values underpin everything we do

Our values come to life in our interactions with candidates, clients and colleagues. Transparency, integrity, consultancy, collaboration, and efficiency underpin everything we do. It enables us to guide and support organisations and individuals through the recruitment process.

 

 

Our Story

Imagine a recruitment firm where every candidate and client receives a tailored service. Envisage a dedicated team that keeps you in the loop at every step in the process. Well, now you can.

Pentagon Talent is here and we are re-engineering recruitment. And we’ve got a great role model — our parent company, award-winning, public-sector specialist Morgan Hunt. That’s where we inherit our values and our experience too.

Pentagon Talent focuses on the recruitment of finance professionals for legal and accountancy practices and is based in London but with offices in Manchester, Birmingham, Milton Keynes, and Glasgow. Our team is one of Morgan Hunt’s fastest growing, and the sector emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic to thrive. Since last year, we’ve seen a 50% increase in roles, and we expect this to grow.

Who we are

As part of the Morgan Hunt Group, Pentagon Talent isn’t your average recruitment agency.

Mission, Vision & Values

We want to prove that working with a recruitment agency can be rewarding and profitable instead of challenging or annoying.
