About us

Welcome to Paragon Recruitment, we're delighted you're here!

What we do

Paragon specialise in empowering career journeys across the Isle of Man every step of the way - from helping you to prepare for and secure your first role, through to career-defining executive appointments at the highest level.  

How we do it

We're a business that delivers, but our people truly believe that the way in which we achieve great results is equally as important as the end goal.

Through partnering closely with both our client employers and respected candidates, our aim is to take the time to consult with each individual as an individual, and in doing so, to fully understand your specific requirements each time.

Our why

We're passionate about the Isle of Man, our chosen industries and the people who operate within them.

We like to think our clients partner with us not just because we deliver great results, but because of the high levels of integrity, passion and energy that underpin every aspect of our service.  

Recruitment is one of the few careers where you can genuinely transform someone's life for the better; the ability to make a real difference is a powerful motivator and we absolutely love what we do!
