Workplace Psychometics
Making better hiring decisions
A "bad hire" can be very costly, in terms of time, money, and the impact on existing teams and the candidate themselves. AI is routinely being used to enhance CVs and covering letters, and it can be difficult to shortlist and select candidates based on reliable evidence.
Psychometrics assessments provide this evidence as part of a screening and selection process, and are increasingly now accepted by candidates as a standard approach.
The first step is a job analysis to identify the critical behaviours for the role, as these will vary widely; as fine attention to detail is likely to be ideal for a technical writer, but a senior leader is likely to need a more strategic outlook.
I deliver expert-led assessments, providing detailed candidate insights, and structured feedback to empower confident, fair, and efficient hiring decisions - for all job roles, including critical leadership - saving you time, money, and disruption.
Achieving career potential
There is a reason two people with identical technical skills can deliver widely differing job performances, and then either enhance or inhibit the performance of the team around them - the difference is an individual’s professional styles, or behaviours at work.
Such behaviours are leading indicators in the success of a projects, and indeed wider organisations.
Combining the leading, scientifically researched and highest-validity psychometric tool with 30+ years of actual work experience from student engineer to board director, I provide
coaching feedback based on "deep-dive" psychometric insights, helping your team members to perform to their best in current roles, and chart an upward career trajectory.
Through this process, I can help you to identify future leader and mentors, sales hunters and farmers, and also accelerate team building through an aggregated "work roles" assessment.
Highest validity, international job-level benchmarks
I provide benchmark profiles for all work levels, from new entrants to Chief Executives, with target profiles carefully calibrated to the organisation's needs. Saville Wave is the leading and most respected industrial psychometric toolset available with the highest measured validity.
Not to be confused with any other approach that seeks to assign a single "colour", or a "4-letter label" to the complexities of our personalities.
For your assurance
I am on the British Psychological Society's Register of Qualifications in Test Use (RQTU), and qualified by Saville Assessment in Wave Occupational Personality, Swift Occupational Ability, and Wave Work Roles testing.
