Experience that Matters.

Solutions That Deliver.

Hiring well changes everything — teams, careers, business performance, patient & customer outcomes. We understand that because we’ve lived it. Before launching Bakar Smith, our team spent many years working in-house - partnering with CEOs, Directors, and senior leaders to shape workforce strategies from the inside. We’ve been part of the conversations that matter — sitting at the HR table, presenting strategies to the leadership teams, planning for growth, preparing for product launches, and ensuring new sites open with the right teams in place.

That experience means we know the pressure points, the timelines, and the stakes. Today, we bring that insight to every partnership — helping organisations hire with clarity, confidence, and care.
