According to the Office for National Statistics (2019) the average first year employee retention rate in the UK is 65%.

"In our first year of business at Vision Executives we achieved a 96% first year retention rate for the candidates we placed with our clients. That means that out of the 24 candidates we placed, 23 of them were still working with our clients on their 1-year work anniversary. It's for this reason, and our thorough/scientific approach to recruitment, that I can offer our clients up to a 12-month free replacement on candidates we place"
