The Icarus Partnership

The Icarus Partnership, based on Styal Road near the airport, is a specialist career transitions company helping hundreds get back on the road to a successful new career. The key to their success is a vast network of industry contacts which helps clients get a foothold on a new career ladder.

The Icarus team believe that most recruiters and career consultants are tied into methodologies that are out of date and no longer relevant in today’s marketplace. Today’s job seeker needs more than a C.V.

We work with people who are career blocked, or facing a disruption in their working lives.

The Icarus Partnership is the region’s most influential and confidential career transition specialists. Based at 500 Styal Road, just two minutes from Manchester International Airport, our major strength is our network of high quality contacts that provides the best access to the North West’s unadvertised jobs market.

Jon Becker, Operations Director of the company, says that anyone who is facing a career disruption in 2008 will be swamped by the amount of advice available from job-sites, newspapers, recruitment agencies and outplacement companies. “Unfortunately,” he says, “most job hunters spend a considerable amount of time filling out application forms on the web, sending off CVs and posting speculative applications”.

When it’s time to move on, we can undoubtedly shorten the time it takes someone to find a new position. Furthermore, with almost two thirds of new positions never actually appearing in the advertised market, it’s not what you know it’s who WE know that makes the difference.

At Icarus, we judge ourselves not on what we promise, but how well we deliver.
