"At a time where I had decided to make a career change I was looking for roles for several months but nothing really jumped out at me...mainly due to hesitation and mainly due to fear of the unknown. Paul took time to talk to me and listened to what kind of role I was after....within days he found a suitable role but more than that a suitable company that was offering the role - somehow he knew precisely what I was after...it wasn't just a change in career but a change to working for a company that reflected my values and beliefs. Paul is an intuitive and empathetic recruiter who will find you your perfect employer. During the interview process he kept in touch promptly and was always keeping me updated as to next steps. I hope I never have to use Paul's services again but should I need to, I have every confidence in his abilities and would trust no one more."

"Paul achieved an excellent result for me when I was recruiting my deputy. Out of the three agencies I approached he was the only person that actually produced several excellent candidates. the other two agencies gave me a pile of unsuitable c.v's to sort out. Paul actually took time to talk me through each candidate bringing the c.v's a positive reality. Truly an excellent service provider."

"Neal provided a first class level of service throughout the recruitment process. From our initial discussions around the types of role I was interested in, to providing highly detailed explanations of the job specifications that were of interest, the level of support through the interview process and the post acceptance touch points were of the highest quality. I would thoroughly recommend Neal and would not hesitate to use him again in the future in either a hiring manager or candidate capacity. "

Highly recommended when looking for a position especially in the Insurance and Finance space. "

"Meera is an outstanding recruiter. Meera recently contacted me for an opportunity and it was good timing as I was looking for a new role. It was very clear from her first message that she is a thorough processional. Job description had all the details required, the Skills, technical stack, remuneration and all the benefits offered, everything crystal clear and transparent, nothing hidden or requiring clarification. Basically all the i's dotted and t's crossed. After matching my skills, she moved quickly with the feedback and subsequently scheduling all 3 rounds of interviews leading up to the offer. Before all the interview she proactively reached out to help understand what to expect and shared helpful tips and already researched material about the company and even the interviewers. I was just so impressed with just how thorough and helpful she was through every step. I recommend Meera highly to anyone looking for a new career move. You can be assured of a service of the highest standard from a thorough professional."

I’m happy to recommend Lee to anyone looking for a new opportunity or any business looking for new talent."
