Welcome
Penna is the trusted talent solutions partner for the emergency services. We’re proud to help our clients find, excite and secure the talent they need.
It all starts with listening to your needs and understanding the unique challenges you face, whether that be hiring more police constables for your constabulary, creating an EVP that will help your paramedic talent join and stay with your Ambulance Service or attracting specialist support staff to your fire brigade.

Direct Sourcing
Some of my roles are hard-to-fill, and very specialised. Can you help?
Penna can take care of all your direct sourcing needs. We’re experts at filling specialist professional roles with candidates who aren’t actively looking for their next job. We do this through a combination of high-touch recruitment, cutting-edge digital outreach and creative advertising. With links to talent pools across fire and rescue, ambulance and police we have access to the best people for the job – and the candidates that fit not only your requirements, but also your culture.

Diversity and inclusion consultancy
How can I hit my diversity goals?
End-to-end inclusive recruitment is the answer. We audit what’s in place, looking across pipeline and process to identify adverse impact – anything that could be overlooking, turning off or discriminating against diverse talent. We shape comms and channel strategies. We also remove potential bias in sourcing, screening and shortlisting candidates. In short, we redesign the entire candidate experience, from the inside out. Then, with our in-house award-winning D&I consultancy, we’ll help you become a more inclusive employer with organisational audits, employee training and more.
