about the company
Established in 2005, DISCOVER RETAIL works specifically within the Retail and Catering recruitment sector… we supply the United Kingdoms retailers and caterers with quality permanent candidates…leaving no stone unturned we have traveled the lengths and breadths of Great Britain from the South Coast to Aberdeen…life is busy!
DISCOVER RETAIL is a new kind of recruitment business, one that REALLY cares about its candidates, its own staff and its clients!

In our three year life we have carefully put together a team of collaborative, supportive, experienced recruitment professionals for you to work alongside – some have worked in retail, some in catering, some have extensive recruitment experience and some have all three! However, the key to a successful career with us is that you share our philosophy of ‘TREAT PEOPLE AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE TREATED YOURSELF’ - we have found this personality trait bears significant success, because when your clients and candidates like what you do and how you do it, they naturally refer to you as their contemporaries!
