WELCOME TO ZENEXUS GROUP
WE INVEST IN MOTIVATED RECRUITMENT ENTREPRENEURS
As a business incubator, Zenexus is geared to speeding up the growth and success of start up and early stage recruitment businesses. Your business gets access to essential services such as accountancy, credit control, marketing, IT, database, invoice financing and legal expertise, in fact everything you need for your business, without having to pay out any up-front financial cost. We offer services that are constantly evolving to meet your needs and market developments. In essence we take away all the back office running of the company which leaves you, the recruiter, free to concentrate on what you do best: finding talented individuals for great companies. Yet we are so much more than just a back-office service. We will firmly support you through the early and fragile stages of growth giving you intangible benefits including mentorship, expertise and networking. If you are a strong experienced and motivated recruiter with the potential to become a business leader then please get in touch for a confidential chat.

ABOUT ZENEXUS GROUP
PROJECTING YOUR RECRUITMENT BUSINESS INTO THE FUTURE
Zenexus was co-founded in early 2010 by Emma and Martin Stone. Emma originally contacted Martin with regards to a main board position with a main contractor but, after much discussion, they combined their expertise gained from over 25 years in the recruitment and construction industries respectively forming what is now their recruitment company Zenexus Solutions. The company has grown over the years into sectors other than just construction and now also operates within the law and commercial sectors. The company is based near Biggin Hill Airport, famous for being one of the commanding bases for the Battle of Britain during the Second World War, and Downe House, the home of the great scientist Charles Darwin. The company works throughout the UK but is predominantly focused around London and the Home Counties.
Having been successful at setting up and running their own business, Emma and Martin decided to pass their expertise onto motivated recruiters who have dreamed of starting their own recruitment business too. Crucially, by taking away all of the back end tasks that stop a recruiter doing what they do best, they are able to use their time totally productively and focus on making placements.
Working at main board level for a series of multi-million pound turnover organisations, some which grew exponentially in a short period of time, and starting several business has enabled Martin to offer his expertise to others via a business consultancy service.
Incidentally, the business name is derived from two elements: Zen – a state of mind in which one is calm, nothing fazes one who is zen and Nexus – a form of connection; a connected group; the centre of something. The logo design strongly incorporates Ensōs (a Japanese word meaning “circle”) and a concept strongly associated with Zen. It symbolises absolute enlightenment, strength and elegance. The interconnecting Ensos represent the interconnectedness of all life; each circle reflects hopes, visions and aspirations – ideal for someone exploring a new career path!
Zenexus invests in motivated recruitment professionals who have what it takes to go solo. Your skills lie in being an exceptional recruitment consultant and maybe not in running all the other elements of a busy recruitment agency but, what if someone else could take all of that away from you? That’s where we come in. We give you the opportunity to launch your own recruitment business without having to pay out any up-front financial cost and we provide all the necessary ongoing support such outlined below. In essence we take away all the back office running of the company which leaves you, the recruiter, free to concentrate on what you do best: finding talented individuals for great companies.
Each and every item to ensure that you are successful is thought about. We will incorporate your company and you will be the majority shareholder. We will setup the marketing and website aspects of your recruitment brand, provide the accountancy functions to allow your new business to trade, take care of your tax and VAT returns. We provide all the comfort of the support functions that you would expect from a large recruitment agency including accounts, payroll, invoicing, finance, CRM, marketing and IT. We know exactly how all of this works because we did it ourselves and we will make it bespoke to you and your company.

SERVICES TO SUPPORT YOUR BUSINESS
WE TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING IN THE BACKGROUND LEAVING YOU FREE TO DEAL WITH THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS
Starting up a new recruitment business can be an intimidating task. We know because we started ours in the middle of a global recession! It’s tough and there are so many things that you have to think about such as payroll, invoicing, IT, websites, your brand, social media, accounting, tax, office space and so on. Starting a business is going to consume a lot of time and, if you’re not careful, you can spend time doing all of the things we have listed and more and no time actually doing the things that make you money. After all, making more money and having more time to do the things you enjoy most is why you are contemplating going out on your own.

New recruitment start ups fail due to a lack of knowledge in the back office functions and a lack of time to actually recruit when juggling all of those tasks. Our extensive service offering is tailored to prevent any of these issues happening. We believe in true partnership working and our proposal is tailored to each and every recruitment entrepreneur that we work with. We recognise that each sector works slightly differently and each person has different individual needs. That’s why we like to meet with our prospective partners so that we can create a bespoke proposal that we are all happy with.
We want you to be able to concentrate on the quality of the service you are offering your clients without getting bogged down with the back office necessities that come with starting your own business.
