About One Seven Consulting

A boutique executive search firm specializing in Executive Search and HR Consulting, helping organizations identify and attract exceptional talent across the Energy, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Logistics, and Commercial sectors.

Their business has always been built on trust, long-term partnerships, and delivering high-quality recruitment solutions.

The Goal

Strengthen their online presence and make it easier for HR professionals actively searching for recruitment partners to discover their expertise.

The Challenge

Great Service Wasn't the Problem — Visibility Was

Their biggest challenge wasn't delivering exceptional recruitment services — it was ensuring the right organizations could find them.

The Problem

They needed a platform that could increase their visibility within the HR community without wasting budget on non-HR clicks and generic listings.

The Real Need

They wanted to connect directly with the right audience — HR leaders actively looking for recruitment partners — not simply a broader, generic one.

The Solution

Why One Seven Consulting Chose NextInHR

To strengthen their digital presence and reach more HR decision-makers, One Seven Consulting partnered with NextInHR and upgraded to its Sponsored Listing.

Ecosystem

HR-Focused Marketplace

Greater visibility within a marketplace built specifically for HR professionals, employers, and recruitment agencies.

Targeting

Relevant Audience

A more focused environment for reaching HR professionals and employers actively looking for recruitment solutions.

Upgrade

Sponsored Listing

An upgraded listing designed to increase visibility and make the agency more prominent within the platform.

The Differentiator

Why NextInHR Made the Difference

The key difference was not simply more exposure. It was exposure within an HR-focused ecosystem.

What the increased visibility meant for One Seven Consulting.

Improved search visibility helped them reach a broader audience of HR professionals, with a steady increase in qualified enquiries from organizations actively seeking executive search partners.

Increased referral traffic from NextInHR brought more relevant decision-makers to their website and created meaningful business conversations.

03

The greatest value wasn't simply receiving more exposure — it was reaching the right audience.

“Before NextInHR, we tried several premium business directories, but they didn't connect us with the right audience. NextInHR's HR-focused marketplace and Sponsored Listing increased our visibility, generated more qualified enquiries, and delivered a much better return on investment. It has become a valuable part of our business growth strategy.”
