Retain Your Talent

Attracting great people is only the first step. Our Retain services help technology businesses create the clarity, culture and employee experience that keep talented people engaged long after they join.
We partner with start-ups, scale-ups and enterprise technology organisations in Leeds, across the UK and internationally to reduce avoidable turnover, strengthen performance and build inclusive environments where people feel valued, supported and able to grow. People stay because they feel valued, supported and enjoy the culture of a business. We show you how to do that in the workplace.

What Does Our Retain Service Cover?

Our Retain pillar is a suite of culture, employee experience and retention services designed for tech businesses that want to build stronger teams from the inside out. We help you define values, improve communication, listen to employee feedback and create fair progression routes that make career growth visible and achievable.

This can include culture programmes, values alignment, DEI strategy, employee voice surveys and feedback loops, wellbeing programmes, benefits benchmarking, internal communications, CSR and social impact initiatives.

Team skills pathway

  • Culture Blueprints

    We help you shape practical culture blueprints built around values, behaviours, inclusion and social responsibility, giving your teams a clear sense of how your business works at its best.

  • Transparent Career Mapping

    We build competency frameworks and career ladders that show people how to progress, what good looks like and how their contribution connects to business growth.

  • Employee Experience Strategy

    We help you improve the day-to-day experience of your teams through employee listening, benefits review, wellbeing support, internal communications and fair, consistent feedback loops.

Why Choose Boost?

Because we work across recruitment, retention and development, we see the full talent lifecycle. We aren’t just another recruiter. We work as a recruitment partner. We understand why technology professionals leave, what makes them stay and how hiring promises need to connect with the employee experience once someone joins. Our approach is honest, practical and grounded in inclusion, helping you build a workplace that lives up to the message you take to market.

Why it matters

Replacing technology talent is expensive, disruptive and time-consuming. When your best people leave, you lose knowledge, momentum and trust. A clear retention strategy helps your business reduce turnover, protect productivity and build a reputation as an employer of choice.

  • Gold

    Our Retention Review is a focused starting point for businesses that want to understand where talent risk exists. We review your current employee experience, progression routes, communication touchpoints and retention challenges, then provide practical recommendations you can act on quickly.

  • Platinum

    Our Culture & Career Mapping service gives you a more structured retention foundation. We work with you to define values, build competency frameworks, shape career ladders and create clear progression routes that help employees understand how to grow inside your organisation.

  • Diamond

    Our Embedded Retention Partnership is designed for businesses that want ongoing support across culture, employee experience and retention. We help you run employee voice initiatives, refine benefits and wellbeing, improve internal communications and build a long-term people strategy that supports sustainable growth.

Testimonials

Jermaine was very supportive and instructive during the whole process of finding me my next role. He worked professionally and diligently to place me and help me throughout. 

I had the pleasure of working with Marie at Boost Talent, during my recent contract placement. I can honestly say she has been the best Client Engagement Manager I have ever worked with. Marie is exceptionally friendly, easy to talk to and genuinely cares about both her clients and contractors. She kept the entire process smooth from start to finish. Even the interview felt more like a relaxed, informal chat than a formal assessment. Her professionalism, communication, and personal touch really stood out and made the experience a pleasure. Marie, you are an absolute credit to Boost Talent.

Great experience in dealing with Rose Blackburn. Rose’s communication was excellent, both timely and relevant throughout the recruitment process. I would highly recommend Boost Talent whether you’re recruiting, job seeking, or even just entertaining the idea of a career change.

I’ve had a positive experience working with Jermaine and Fahed through a recent recruitment process. They’re fantastic people who supported and guided me from the first call until I signed the contract. So a big thank you to you all. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a recruiter who goes the extra mile.

There is nothing but good to say about both Jermaine and Elly. So impressed with everything…… they are both extremely personable, transparent, inquisitive, approachable, supportive, fun yet professional all at the same time. I was put forward for a role just before Christmas and even through the festive period was supported throughout the whole process; communication was excellent, guidance was provided and ultimately whilst clearly I played a big part in securing the role, Boost facilitated and enabled this for me!

A big thank you to Rose, I can’t recommend Rose highly enough. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand not just my experience, but my long-term career goals and what I actually wanted out of my next role. Her guidance throughout the process was clear, honest, and incredibly supportive.

Thanks to her help, I secured a position that has genuinely transformed my career. It’s opened up opportunities for growth, development, and progression that I hadn’t previously thought possible. Rose was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and keep me motivated, making what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.

Fahed is a real professional, genuine and friendly. He went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported and prepared for all stages of the interview process. I am incredibly grateful to him for his guidance and would highly recommend Boost Talent to anyone looking for a new role.
