Not an Agency
A Partnership.

The best specialist recruiters don't need a boss. They need infrastructure, ownership, and people who back them long-term. That's what Amarval offers.

The False Choice

There are two options.
Both are wrong.

The recruitment industry presents a binary: take a salary and lose your upside, or go solo and lose your safety net. Amarval exists because neither option is good enough for the best people in our industry.

Option A
Employed

Stability, process, and a salary cap. Your billings build someone else's business.

  • Monthly salary with limited upside
  • KPIs, targets, and managers to report to
  • Desk-bound or hybrid — on someone else's terms
  • Your network belongs to the firm
  • Limited equity or long-term ownership
OR
Neither
Amarval Partners

The structure you need. The freedom you've earned.

  • Full billing upside
  • Complete autonomy
  • Genuine ownership
Option B
Solo

Freedom, but also admin, isolation, and the weight of doing everything yourself.

  • No infrastructure or back-office support
  • Brand-building from zero
  • Legal, compliance, and finance on your plate
  • Isolated from a network of peers
  • Vulnerable to dry periods with no buffer
People working in a light-filled modern space

Our partners work on their terms — from anywhere.

Dee
Education Specialist
Early Partner
2021
Joined in our founding year —
still with us in 2026
I was comfortable, did a good job and built a big desk and loyal client relationships at my last employer. I took a chance when I became a partner, but I can't recommend it highly enough. I went from earning a fraction of what my desk billed, to taking home thousands more each month.

Dee joined Amarval at founding in 2021. Today she leads our Education practice — placing teachers and support staff across London schools, with a candidate community she's been building for nearly two decades. Her clients describe her as part of the furniture.
