HR consultancies growing with Clevry
Most HR Consultancies are stuck in the same trap
Most HR consultancy revenue lives or dies by consultant hours. Clients come and go. Projects end. And the business resets.
It’s a model that works — until it doesn’t. A slow month, a lost contract, a capacity gap, and the pressure is back.
Clevry helps you build a different kind of consultancy: one with predictable recurring revenue, multiple service lines, and client relationships that deepen over time.
Some of our partners have built hundreds of thousands of euros in annual Clevry-related revenue. It doesn’t happen overnight — but it does happen, and we’re here to help make it a reality.
Why HR consultancies partner with Clevry
There are plenty of assessment providers. What our partners tell us — and what Clayton Donnelly, founder of CHC Consulting, our South African partner, put bluntly — is that Clevry is different: more flexible, more collaborative, and genuinely committed to making the partnership work commercially on both sides. Here's what that looks like in practice.
Create recurring revenue
Build annual client contracts that generate predictable revenue — whether your consultants are billing that month or not. It smooths cash flow, reduces client churn, and creates a foundation for sustainable growth.
Diversify your revenue streams
Deploy Clevry across the entire talent lifecycle — recruitment, assessment centres, leadership development, succession planning, graduate hiring, team development and organisational coaching.
Add more value to existing clients
Introduce Clevry to your existing client base first. Adding a modern, science-backed assessment capability is a natural extension of what you already do — and a reason to re-engage clients you haven't spoken to in a while.
Scale your impact
Move from intuition-based conversations to data-backed consultancy — at the individual, team, or organisational level. A different, stronger kind of conversation to have with a client.
Build credibility and differentiate yourself
A close collaboration with a rigorous, science-based assessment provider tells your market something important about how you work — one of the clearest signals of a strategic, data-driven consultancy.
Collaborate on thought leadership
We actively work with partners on webinars, events, white papers and research — including our Perspectives on Talent series and AI in Talent Assessment Report. These collaborations build brand on both sides and generate concrete leads.
What makes Clevry different
There are many assessment providers. Most are either rigidly academic, or commercially focused at the expense of science. Clevry sits at the intersection: strong scientific foundations, modern technology, and a platform built to be genuinely flexible.
Unrivalled customisability
Measure exactly what matters for each client — competency frameworks, reporting, role-specific success profiles. Not a feature — the difference between reselling a test and delivering a consulting engagement.
Science-first
Built on more than 30 years of psychometric science, rigorously validated and grounded in occupational psychology — not just user experience design.
A better candidate experience
Modern, mobile-friendly, and built for real-world completion rates — protecting your client's employer brand, and yours.
A partnership, not a reseller programme
Not a self-serve affiliate arrangement. We help on sales, enterprise opportunities, RFPs and events. If you have a live opportunity, message us directly — we show up.
Is this the right fit?
We would rather build five strong partnerships than fifty shallow ones. There's no single profile — we work with independent consultants, founder-led boutiques, organisational psychology consultancies, executive search firms and large international consultancies alike. What tends to make the difference:
- ✓Belief in assessments. You should already understand where psychometrics create value — we're not starting from scratch here.
- ✓Existing client relationships. Introducing Clevry to clients you already trust, and who trust you, is the lowest-friction path to results.
- ✓A strong reputation. Clevry is a science-based, quality-focused brand, and partner reputation matters to us.
- ✓A consultative mindset. The best partnerships happen when consultancies use Clevry to create meaningful outcomes — not simply to resell tests.
- ✓A path to meaningful revenue. A realistic route to more than €50,000 of annual revenue with Clevry — some partners generate several hundred thousand. Size isn't the defining factor; commercial alignment is.
These are indicators, not a checklist — get in touch and we'll work it out together.
Our partnerships are non-exclusive by design — we'd rather grow the market for everyone than fight over a slice of it. Today, that includes HR consultancy partners across the UK, South Africa, France, the UAE, Kenya, the Philippines, Indonesia, Qatar, Croatia, Finland, the US and Australia.
Let's talkThree ways to generate revenue with Clevry
You don't need to choose one model. Most partners use all three depending on the client and opportunity.
Partner sales
You sell the Clevry platform to a client who becomes a direct Clevry customer, and earn a revenue share of up to 50% of their annual contract value.
Managed services
Use Clevry as part of your own consulting work — buy assessments at volume pricing, deliver them yourself, and set your own margin. The most common starting point.
Referral
If an opportunity is outside your region, bandwidth or focus, pass it to us — we pay 20% of the first year's recurring revenue if it converts.
Support that actually helps you win business
We genuinely want you to generate revenue. Without that, the partnership is a waste of time for both of us — so we invest in helping you succeed.
How HR consultancies use Clevry
Our consultancy partners use Clevry across a wide range of client projects.
Psychometric assessments
Personality questionnaires, ability tests, and situational judgement tests — with a level of customisability that most platforms simply don't offer. Consultancies use these in recruitment, development, assessment centres, and coaching.
Leadership development
Partners use Clevry to identify leadership strengths and development risks, support coaching conversations, build leadership development plans, and inform succession planning. The data gives consultants a richer, more credible foundation for the work.
360 feedback
Our customisable 360 framework maps directly to the competencies that matter for a specific role or organisation. Using AI-assisted competency mapping, you can start from a job description and generate a recommended 360 framework from there. Adapt it as you see fit.
Assessment centres
Structured assessment centre delivery with scalable workflows and consistent reporting. Partners use this to run more rigorous, defensible processes at scale.
Team development
Clevry's team development tools help consultants improve team dynamics, communication, and collaboration — and connect individual data to team-level insight. Partners can also access our Team Workshop frameworks.
Enterprise talent projects
Many partners use Clevry in larger transformation engagements: graduate recruitment, internal mobility, large-scale hiring, talent analytics, and organisational capability mapping. These are the projects where the commercial upside is significant.
Proof that it works
Clevry exceeded all expectations. The bespoke personality questionnaire feature is truly unique and widely enjoyed by South African clients. We have experienced double-digit revenue growth year-on-year for the last six years.
CHC Consulting is a Human Capital consultancy with 11 years in operation. They started as a recruitment business and expanded into business psychology, becoming highly selective about the tools they use. Today they're one of Clevry's most established partners — building both the Clevry brand and their own in one of the most competitive assessment markets in the world.

Frequently asked questions
What types of HR consultancies partner with Clevry?
We work with a wide range of consultancies: recruitment consultancies, leadership development firms, organisational psychology practices, executive search firms, assessment specialists, and general HR consulting businesses. The common thread is a genuine belief in assessments and the ambition to build something scalable.
Do I need previous psychometric experience?
Yes. We expect partners to already understand the value and practical application of psychometric assessments. We're not set up to teach the fundamentals from scratch — that's not a good starting point for either of us.
Is the partnership exclusive?
No. Our partnerships are intentionally non-exclusive. We believe this creates healthier, more practical long-term relationships for everyone.
Can smaller or independent consultancies become partners?
Absolutely. Some of our strongest partners are founder-led boutiques. Size isn't the constraint — commercial alignment and belief in the product are.
Can we use Clevry with our existing clients?
Yes, and that's usually the best starting point. Most partners introduce Clevry to their existing client base first, where trust is already established.
Can we customise assessments for our clients?
Yes. Customisability is one of Clevry's key differentiators. You can tailor assessments to specific competency frameworks, roles, industries, and cultures.
What support do partners actually receive?
Onboarding and certification training, access to the Partnership Hub (sales training, decks, RFP materials, pricing tools), joint enterprise sales support, RFP and RFI assistance, marketing collaboration, lead sharing where applicable, and a partner manager you can reach directly.
We already sell assessments from another provider. Is that a problem?
Not at all. In fact, we see prior assessment experience as a positive — it means you know what you're looking for and can evaluate Clevry clearly, which is useful in selling it.
What happens if a lead falls outside our region or capacity?
You can pass it to us as a referral and receive 20% of the first-year ARR if it converts.
What makes Clevry different from other assessment providers?
The combination of scientific rigour, genuine customisability, modern technology, and a partnership model where we're actively invested in your commercial success. Most assessment providers are either academically strong but inflexible, or commercially focused at the expense of quality. Clevry sits at the intersection.
