The results are transformational!

I had the pleasure of partnering with Cressida in a recent search for new QA Testing Lead role in the UK. Cressida helped me understand the landscape of the market and guided me through the development of the job specification and associated salary benchmarks.

She worked to the timelines I set and, to my delight, presented a diverse short list of candidates who were all highly credible and great fits for the role. The work she did in the background to identify and screen candidates was second to none – to the point where making a final decision was difficult as the final 3 candidates were so strong!

In short – I thank Cressida for introducing my successful candidate to the Firm and I would 100% want to work with her again on future placements.

Cressida as a talent acquisition professional is absolutely a gem. She is very approachable, friendly, and helpful. She helped me through the entire recruitment process and kept me updated without having a need to chase her. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wishes to use a progressive and supportive talent acquisition professional.

Cressida was asked to headhunt architects for my EA team, building a team that reflected the institution’s core values. She knows the market well and understood exactly what I wanted for these roles. She has a good level of technical knowledge and only sent me a short list of diverse profiles that are first-class after she has spoken to them, making it an easy, quick, and efficient recruitment process. She has helped me secure strategic hires across Cloud, Data, and Connectivity at senior levels. She has been a great, reliable partner and understood our needs from the outset, working incredibly hard to deliver to our challenging timescales.Cressida was asked to headhunt architects for my EA team, building a team that reflected the institution’s core values.
