Once they had assessed the market they chose Finlay James as one of their key partners to help with their strategic recruitment needs. Finlay James over exceeded on all expectations. Their understanding of the business requirements, responsiveness and flexibility within their approach was of the highest standard, only ever putting forward exceptional candidates. We went on to recruit a number of very significant heads in the business, including the new sales and marketing director via Finlay James.’

ADDED: February 2006
FROM: Sales Manager, Business Intelligence Software House
REFERENCE: ‘Finding the high performers who will drive our continued growth is a major priority for our company – something this important needs the best brains we can find, but it is not an expertise we can maintain in-house. We need to hand the whole problem to a trusted partner, not just someone who forwards bundles of CV’s to us.’
ADDED: January 2006
FROM: Head of Sales & Marketing, IT BPO Provider
REFERENCE: ‘When I sat down to the new job as head of sales and marketing I wasn’t expecting my first twelve calls all to be from Recruitment Consultants offering me their services. On paper, the offerings and approach appear to be comparable across them all. However, a simple test raised Finlay James above the also-rans. They were the only ones who took a brief and then replayed back to me with any clarity what my requirements were. The rest flowed – strong candidates, ideally suited and with relevant skills. No time wasted interviewing ‘nice guys’ who also sadly fitted the ‘wrong place, wrong time’ category. I got my man and he’s already in the right frame of mind to hit the road running. The only reason not to recommend them is that there is more competition for the strong candidates they bring to market.’
