Our Services

Our Services

Security Cleared Talent

Ncounter excels at sourcing individuals with the UK’s most demanding security clearances….from BPSS through to enhanced Developed Vetting (eDV). We specialise in placing candidates who hold Counter Terrorist Check/Level 1B, Security Check (SC), Non-Police Personnel Vetting (NPPV) and full Developed Vetting (DV/eDV), all of which require rigorous background, financial, criminal, and intelligence‑service scrutiny. Our deep network gives us direct access to these highly screened professionals, making Ncounter the go‑to partner for roles demanding the highest assurance. For our Defence and National Security clients, we don’t just meet clearance needs, we deliver the individuals who are already vetted, trusted, and ready.

Permanent Recruitment

We specialise in long-term hiring strategies that build capability for the future. With decades of experience placing highly-skilled technologists into permanent roles, Ncounter has the insight and credibility to engage passive candidates at the right time with the right message. Our deep sector knowledge and relationships across the UK’s secure tech landscape allow us to make impactful introductions - particularly in environments where trust, discretion, and cultural alignment are critical. Whether growing agile teams or securing niche talent for secure government missions, we focus on outcomes that last.

Contract Recruitment

When projects demand rapid delivery and niche skill sets, Ncounter is ready. We deliver experienced contractors who are not only technically excellent, but also hold the clearances and credibility required to operate in sensitive environments. We support both Umbrella and PSC engagement models and pride ourselves on our speed, compliance, and commitment to quality. From surge support to project augmentation in Defence and CNI programmes, we help you meet deadlines without compromising on integrity or standards.

Consultancy Services

Some challenges require more than recruitment - they need a partner who can co-create the solution. Ncounter offers consultancy-led talent services designed to solve real-world business and programme issues. Whether it’s advising on secure workforce planning, improving your talent pipeline for high-clearance roles, or optimising hiring processes, we bring a delivery mindset rooted in sector experience. We’re used to operating in constrained and classified environments - helping Defence and National Security clients achieve clarity, compliance, and control.
