We want to get to know you from Adam

... And we’re not just saying that.

Top Block

We Are Adam focus on building long-standing relationships, not our database. Your career is a huge part of your life. It's important you find a role that brings fulfilment and happiness. Sunday evening shouldn't fill you with dread.

We understand the importance of finding the right role for you, and the impact it can have on your life. We'll never put you forward for a role that you aren't interested in or doesn't suit you. You won't jump through hoops to hit our pointless KPI's either. Looking for a new role shouldn't be a full time job.

Our services are completely free to candidates – we would never charge a penny. Our fees are paid solely by our clients, the employers, so you can be confident that our advice and support comes with no strings attached.

We'll be forthcoming, honest and as timely as possible when giving you feedback. Don't expect us to tell you what you want to hear to make our lives easier. You'll get real feedback, warts and all. We're always on hand to share advice on refining your CV or prepping for an interview. Why sit and stew on a query when you can ask an expert?

Candidate Testimonials

Down-to-earth, honest, supportive and gave constant updates and communication through the whole process. They took extra time to coach me through the interviews and we're very motivating to work with. What I liked most is they spent more time than expected to get to know me as an individual, as well as a professional and therefore sought roles to match my personal needs, as well as my skills. I highly recommend We Are Adam, especially for marketing professionals. 10 out of 10

The Great Resignation 2.0: Why 2025’s Job Market Feels Different (And What Smart Leaders Are Doing About It)

The Great Resignation 2.0: Why 2025’s Job Market Feels Different (And What Smart Leaders Are Doing About It)

The numbers tell a compelling story: 181,000 job-to-job resignations took place in the UK in the third quarter of 2024 (Statista, based on ONS data), while the market remains relatively tight. But if you think this is just a repeat of what we saw during the original Great Resignation, you're missing the bigger picture. We're not witnessing another exodus, no, this is something more intentional, a strategic reset. People are rethinking what work means to them, and that’s creating a chance for employers to evolve and lead in new ways.
