⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We’re proud of our 5⭐ rating - not for the number, but for what it represents. It means people felt looked after. That we listened. Delivered. Did what we said we would (and probably a bit more).
How it all began…
On leaving the British Army, Cliff Allum MBE, wanted to create a better way for former service men and women to access second careers after resettlement.
Pimento Connection was created in a bar for friends and colleagues and the business has grown from strength to strength over the last 20 years.
The name PIMENTO first was used in World War 2 in France by Cliff’s close friend and hero, Tony Brooks. A fluent French speaker, Tony joined and operated as a member of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) and, whilst still aged barely 20 years old, was twice parachuted into France to form and command a group of resistance fighters (code-named PIMENTO)
Supporting Veterans & The Environment
Pimento Connection has joined forces with Carma | B-Corp to plant UK native trees for our clients in 2025.
I cant recommend Pimento highly enough. Every time we have worked with them they have always delivered above and beyond that required of them. Their depth of knowledge and application of such, as well as their expertise in the marketplace has always resulted in the perfect match for our company, or a timely and accurate resolution to the issue presented. The Pimento network seems boundless and the answer is always yes.
Recruitment right now feels a bit like being a waiter at a restaurant where everyone’s hungry… but the menu keeps changing.
Clients are trying to find the right dish, candidates are looking for the right table, and we’re somewhere in the middle armed with the menu, the specials board and copious amounts of coffee. 😂
And recruitment goes like this sometimes, so its a good job we love what we do.

Larger organisations don`t always have the advantage when competing for talent. In fact, many candidates tell us they are actively seeking smaller businesses to work for, and the reasons are surprisingly consistent:
➡️Greater visibility of impact
➡️Faster decision-making
➡️Broader responsibilities
➡️Closer leadership access
➡️More autonomy
➡️Interesting project exposure
The influence these factors have on candidate decisions is sometimes underestimated, and the challenge for companies is communicating this value proposition clearly during the hiring process.
Size and headcount isn`t always the deciding factor, the employee experience often is and this starts at application stage.
What has your experience been as someone who is #hiring and/or #opentowork?
#hellopimento
👉 Some people throw spaghetti at the wall to see if it`s cooked.
👉 Some recruiters do the same with CVs - fire enough at a Hiring Manager and eventually one sticks.
Volume isn’t best-practice recruitment. Precision is.

The work is there.
The demand is there.
But a shortage of cleared technical professionals is slowing delivery, growth and contract award.
Who’s helping you solve it?
#hellopimento #securitycleared #talent
You can usually tell pretty quickly. A CV lands in your inbox and your first thought is:
`𝘼𝙝, 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙨 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙`
Not because it’s packed with buzzwords or polished corporate language, but because it genuinely fits. Quite often, the best candidates don’t just meet the technical requirements; they understand the environment, the pace, the pressure, and can see what the team is going to achieve.
💥 A CV can’t show that, but a personalised profile can. 💥
How? By meeting each candidate, having a detailed chat, finding out what`s underneath the words on the CV (and finding out what isn`t on there) taking time to discover more about the person in front of us.
That’s the difference between filling a vacancy and making the right hire.
Too much recruitment is focused on volume. We’re more interested in connection; bringing together people, teams and opportunities that actually work long term.
At Pimento Connection, we help Hiring Managers find talent that adds real value from day one.

The best coffee houses don’t serve everyone, everywhere, all at once.
Neither do we.
