The CARE Principles: Westray Recruitment Group’s Guiding Values

At Westray Recruitment Group, our success has always been driven by more than just filling vacancies or matching the right candidate to the right job. For us, recruitment is about building meaningful relationships, making a lasting impact and helping both individuals and businesses thrive. This is why we live by our core values—embodied in the acronym CARE, which stands for Community, Accountable, Real and Ethical.

Each of these principles defines who we are as a business and how we approach recruitment. Let’s dive deeper into what CARE means to us and how these values shape the work we do every day.

Community

Westray Recruitment is deeply rooted in the communities we serve. We believe that fostering strong, positive relationships with local businesses, job seekers and organisations is the key to creating a supportive environment for growth and development.

Being part of the community means going beyond the traditional role of a recruitment agency. We actively support local initiatives and strive to give back in ways that strengthen the bonds we share with the people and businesses we work alongside. Whether it’s through charity events, sponsorships or partnerships, we believe in making a tangible difference where it matters most.


Accountable

We understand that trust is earned, not given. At Westray Recruitment, accountability is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you're a candidate seeking a career change or an employer looking for the right talent, we take ownership of our role in your journey.

Our team is committed to delivering on promises and standing by our decisions. We hold ourselves to the highest standards, ensuring transparency and integrity throughout the recruitment process. When we say we’re here to support you, we mean it and you can count on us to deliver results with the upmost and professionalism.


Real

Authenticity is key to building genuine relationships and that’s why we embrace openness and honesty in all our interactions.

We don’t sugarcoat or overpromise. Instead, we take the time to understand your needs and provide practical advice. Our consultants focus on building rapport and trust by being upfront about challenges, opportunities and expectations. At Westray, “real” means that what you see is what you get and we always stay true to who we are.


Ethical

Ethical practice is the foundation upon which all our other values stand. We believe in doing the right thing, even when no one is looking. This commitment to ethics ensures that we treat everyone fairly, without bias or discrimination.

From safeguarding candidate confidentiality to promoting diversity and inclusion, we adhere to the highest ethical standards in recruitment. We actively promote responsible business practices and ensure that every decision we make aligns with both our moral and professional obligations. Our commitment to ethics is unwavering and it informs how we build relationships, serve our clients and treat our candidates.


CARE: A Holistic Approach to Recruitment

The CARE principles—Community, Accountable, Real, Ethical—are more than just words for us. They represent the values that drive our work and define our approach to recruitment. Whether we’re connecting job seekers with new opportunities or helping businesses find their next great hire, we do so with the firm belief that our actions should always reflect these core principles.

At Westray Recruitment Group, we don’t just place people in jobs; we’re committed to building long-lasting, meaningful partnerships that benefit everyone involved. By living the CARE values, we ensure that every interaction we have is positive and productive in a commitment to doing good for our clients and candidates.
