CANDIDATE TESTIMONIALS

"When I first spoke to Jo I was only tentatively looking and rather than push me in to roles that were of no interest Jo took the time to understand my needs fully and only presented me with roles which she felt would really suit what I was looking for. I found her to be personable, reliable and above all highly professional in her approach to her work.

Whenever anyone I know is looking for work Jo is always the first person I put them in touch with. If you're looking for your next role I couldn't recommend Jo and her team highly enough."

"I first contacted Jo because of her credible reputation within the Rec2Rec Sector. After meeting with me, she understood exactly what I was looking for in my next career move. Jo exhibited a proactive approach and an in depth knowledge of the recruitment industry including that of her clients. Unlike many other aggressive or inactive recruiters she provided a perfect balance making me feel at ease every step of the way. She operates with an excellent level of transparency and has extremely high integrity. I would highly recommend."

"Having worked with Jo as both a candidate and client, I have always found her and the team at Spencer Hunt to be incredibly professional, approachable and with a passion and drive not known within the Rec2Rec sector.

Jo and the Spencer Hunt team strives to find the right candidate with the right cultural and professional attributes to integrate into the company flawlessly.

I've used Spencer Hunt on a number of occassions for both direct recruitment and headhunting and have never been disappointed with the candidates shortlisted."

"From start to finish Tracie was a consummate professional and was able to offer expert advice and assistance to help me gain a role within recruitment.  A very personable person she was very helpful and efficient with my situation and placed me in a very good role within a week of me meeting her.  If the situation arose I wouldn't hesitate to work with Tracie again."

"I had been recommended to speak to Jo by Matthew Porter as I was planning my move from mortgages into recruitment. I met Jo on a Friday lunch and by 5pm I had three interviews arranged with several agencies. One of which I am now happily employed by. Jo was amazing to deal with and helped me move forward in my career. My move was fast yet very smooth for which Jo deserves a lot of the credit. I would highly recommend anyone wishing to move into recruitment to meet and listen to what she has to say."

"I worked with Joanne when I decided to make the move from Leeds to London in June. From our initial discussion Jo listened carefully to the type of recruiter I was interested in working for and from that point she demonstrated an excellent understanding of the market and was instrumental in securing me the role that I wanted. I cannot recommend Jo highly enough and will recommend any recruiter interested in a move to contact her."

"Helen......Where could i start, personable, trustworthy, knowledgable and a good listener. I never thought i would say such things about a rec to rec. Helen was always in conversation with me even when she knew i wasn't looking she would still keep in touch for a chat, and when she did have what i was looking for i snapped her hand off. I won't be leaving the company i'm at so probably wont need her services again, but when i'm hiring staff she will be top of my list."

"Tracie placed me with my current company and I couldn't be happier with her performance. She is a consummate professional, always keeping very clear lines of communication and also very punctual to boot. Hopefully I shouldn't be using her services again soon, but if I ever need a rec to rec consultant I'll only be making one call."

"Having been recommended to me I contacted Jo Green when I first decided to make the move from Manchester to London. She fully understood my requirements and presented several different opportunities to me. On agreeing a short list she made introductions to prospective employers. She achieved great results and was consultative throughout the entire process.  I was extremely impressed with her professionalism, attention to detail and her tenacity.  I would consider Spencer Hunt to be the leading rec to rec consultancy operating in the North West and would have no hesitation in recommending Jo Green to others in our profession."

"I worked with Jo whilst she was providing candidates to us in my previous role and more recently when she found me a position in America. She conducts herself with professionalism and complete discretion. Her ability to understand the recruitment market and react quickly to business opportunities is excellent as are her overall people skills. Jo is a very likeable person who i would happily recommend to any client/candidate."

"I found Tracie to be an excellent Consultant, I felt that she really understood 'me' and my motivations and therefore her 'matching skills' were brilliant.  Most of all, I felt that Tracie was extremely personable and trusting and I felt that I could be honest and upfront with her throughout the whole process. Tracie was particularly excellent throughout a counter-offer situation and coached me through this without creating any extra stress and without adding any pressure, which was exactly what I needed!  Tracie was in constant touch with me and I felt that she was in full control and was aware of everything that was going on.  Tracie also has a great sense of humour, and I very much enjoyed working with her... I would definitely recommend Tracie to anybody looking for work."

"Having dealt with Jo in the past, she was my first point of call when looking for a new opportunity. She has an in-depth knowledge of the recruitment world and a very good network of contacts, but what really impresses is the slick process and unflappable attitude that she brings to your job search. This service extends across her team, leaving you in very capable hands. A pleasure to deal with, and I would recommend Spencer Hunt without hesitation."

"I have worked with Tracie on 2 occasions in the past when I have looked for a career change, Tracie is one of not many that listen to your needs and then would come back to you with choices. She has very good market knowledge and I would definitely recommend Tracie and Spencer Hunt to friends and colleagues."

"Helen always has time for you and displays an envious amount of drive and passion for her work. She always delivers on her promises and for that reason I would never use anyone else if I were seeking a new role. Helen has placed me twice, firstly with NES Global in Singapore and most recently in my current role. She is tenacious and knowledgeable but at the same time very personable with a great sense of humor. I cannot recommend Helen's services highly enough."

"I used Jo to find me a new career in recruitment during the most challenging financial crisis the industry has faced. At all times Jo was positive in her approach and demonstrated a thorough knowledge of her specialist area coming up with a number of suitable alternatives. I would recommned Jo to any recruiter who finds themselves needing to change roles within recruitment."

"Tracie provided an excellent service and took the time to understand why my next career move was so important and the direction I wanted to take. I was happy to see her rule out a number of her clients as they did not meet what I was looking for which is much better than wasting both mine and her clients time. I would happily recommend Tracie and hope her success continues.  Thanks Tracie."

"I have been liaising with Tracie at Spencer Hunt for some time now and have been highly impressed by the personal tailored service I have received. I was sceptical using a Rec-to-rec business due to some poor experiences in the past, but the service I have received from Tracie has been second to none. I briefed her on my reasons for looking and also exactly what I was looking for from my next role, she paid attention to my needs and talked through opportunities immediately. I went forward to interviews with confidence that I was in good hands, and meeting companies that could match my ambitions.  I am exceptionally grateful to the hard work that she has put in to finding me an excellent role, she made herself available whenever I had any problems, questions or doubts and acted with the utmost professionalism at all times.  I would have no hesitation in recomending Spencer Hunt to any candidates, they should be the first call anyone makes, they know what they are doing, and do it extremely well."

"Having been largely disapointed by the majority of rec-to-rec recruiters it was refreshing to meet an individual who approaches assignments with ethics and professional integrity. Helen has a genuine interest in her candidates long term aspirations and a valuable ability to match these perfectly with her clients. Combined with a proactive and methodical approach it is understandable why Helen is a respected consultant in the rec-to-rec space."

"I have dealt with my fair share of Rec 2 Rec's and have to say I have never found one who is a knowledgeable and honest as Tracie. The difference with Tracie is you’re not just a fee to her. Tracie's ability to understand and advise is the best on the market place. I highly recommend Tracie and Spencer Hunt and in my personal opinion would even go as far to say that they are the best Rec 2 Rec in the North West."

"Helen is a very capable and knowledgeable recruiter, within her industry.  She is very highly thought of by clients and applicants alike, owing to her effective and organised work ethic, honesty, efficiency and her ability to make just the right sort of introduction. On the personal level, she is a genuinely nice human being and a pleasure to know.   I would highly recommend using her services to any Recruitment Consultancy/Business or Recruiter looking for the right company to work for."

"Helen is very passionate and good at what she does. Shes an excellent recruiter and provides a very quick turn around service. I met Helen as a Recruiter myself as I was looking for opportunities. Helen found the perfect company for me within hours as she knows her clients well and knows exactly what they are looking for. I would highly recommend Helen as she listened to everything I personally wanted from a company as well and placed me within days. Lovely lady and great service provided. Thanks Helen."

"From day 1 working with Tracie i was confident that i was in the hands of someone who will find me the RIGHT opportunity. Through understanding me, my qualities and what i was looking for Tracie placed me with a company that gives me all the challenges and rewards that i am looking for. I would recommend Tracie to any strong recruiter that is looking for a career enhancing move. Thanks for everything Tracie."

"I have had the opportunity of working with Helen as both a candidate looking for a new role and as a recruiting manager and have found her service to be excellent from both perspectives. Helen successfully placed Consultants to work for me and has succeeded in finding me my current role."

"I was referred to Jo Green by another recruiter.  I was extremely impressed by her; she and I discussed a handful of companies that Spencer Hunt knows well, and within twenty-four hours she had secured an interview for me with every single one.  She and her colleagues are knowledgeable and professional and the whole process was handled impeccably, through to receiving an offer that was exactly what I wanted.  Within a fortnight of meeting Jo I had already given her two more referrals, and I shall certainly refer her again to anyone looking for a new job in recruitment."

"I found Helen to be an extremely proactive and reliable recruiter who set herself apart from the competition at every opportunity. Helen really listened to my requirements and always delivered on her promises. The companies that we discussed were always a great match to both my skill set and personality, and she was always prepared to go the extra mile to make sure that I was able to make informed decisions. On top of everything, Helen's open and friendly approach made her a pleasure to work with. I would strongly recommend Helen to anyone who is looking for a professional and personable recruiter who delivers results."

"Helen is a bright and enthusiastic recruiter who helped me gain the ideal job with a great company. She is helpful and sincere and I would recommend her services to anybody."

"I have used Tracie several times, when I have been looking for a new challenge. I have always found her to have a very professional approach, when dealing with me and has great market knowledge. She has introduced me to several business' and I would have no reservation in using her services again."

"Tracie was instrumental in helping me find the right job when I was relocating to London. She took the stress of finding the right opportunity out of the process and presented me with a selection of excellent choices. I would not hesitate to recommend Tracie and the excellent service she provides."

"When I realised I had made a bad move in my last recruitment role I approached Tracie from Spencer Hunt who had been influential in helping old friends and colleagues move their career forward. Not only did she arrange an interview for me straight away she also chauffeured me there in a Porsche and guided me through the rest of the recruitment  process with speed. I’m now extremely happy in my new role and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tracie and the Spencer Hunt team again, thanks Tracie."

"I can highly recommend Helen to any experienced Recruitment Consultant or junior out there looking for their next career move. She gave a professional, friendly, and prompt service to me when I was looking to move from my previous company. She met with me and gave an in depth interview where she took on board my experience and listened to what I was looking for. She then delivered on all accounts. I hope not to use Helen again in the future, but for all the right reasons!!! I will however recommend her to anyone I know looking for a move."

"When Helen approached me with regards to an opportunity I was not looking for a role and didn’t want to move.  “No harm in listening to the opportunity” she said… and she was right!  Helen's no pressure, listen-to-the-facts, approach meant I instantly trusted her (rare in recruitment I am sure you will agree).  When I had decided that I wanted to, Helen arranged an interview and helped me every step of the way.  Even when it came to offers she didn’t force me to agree to anything I didn’t want to and, with the help of Jo Green also, I was able to secure an offer I was truly happy with.  The support I was offered by them was beyond anything I could have asked for.  Definitely the only rec-to-rec I would use or recommend - a cut above the rest.  Thanks guys!"

"Working in recruitment I am constantly bombarded with phone calls from rec 2 rec agencies – but the approach of Spencer Hunt was different and I agreed to meet and then use them for my recruitment needs.  Dealing with Spencer Hunt was a pleasure – Tracie, my point of contact throughout the process was professional and thorough throughout and in our first meeting established exactly what I was looking for with a knowledgeable approach to the industries I was looking at.  The companies I was interviewed by were a perfect match not just industry wise but also matched both my personality and my other personal requirements. Tracie was knowledgeable about all the companies she sent me for interview with and at no stage did I feel pushed into going to see a potential employer. I am now in a role that exactly suits my requirements – and I know I would not be here if it weren’t for Tracie and the Spencer Hunt team. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for the best rec 2 rec in this area."

"Before dealing with Tracie and the team at Spencer Hunt. I had previously spoken to Rec to Recs who I didn’t feel addressed what I was looking for but would instead try and push me into generic roles that were easier for them to find. Tracie was a break from the norm! She was attentive and informative and she listened to what I was looking for, before coming back with two options for overseas work quickly. Throughout the interview process, Tracie was in constant contact with both me and the client. She and Jo were thorough in their approach and briefed me fully on both the companies and the individuals that I met. Tracie was quick in getting feedback and whenever I had any questions about the relocation was speedy in getting responses from the client and working out a route forward. Whenever Tracie was unavailable, I dealt with the wider team at Spencer Hunt including Helen and Jo who were also very helpful. As a result of the great work carried out by Spencer Hunt I have accepted a role in Houston, Texas which I am very happy with. I would thoroughly recommend Tracie to any Recruitment Consultant seeking a new role (and have already done so). I was very lucky to experience the service both she and Spencer Hunt provided. Tracie is by far the most attentive Rec to Rec I have dealt with and has made a potentially stressful situation very easy!"

"During my last role in recruitment I was feeling it was time to move on. I was approached by Jo who helped me find my new role. Having worked with Jo in the past, I felt she knew exactly what role and organisation would suit me in my next role, which she did exactly. I found her to be extremely supportive and consultative during the whole process, she paid attention to my needs, and listened to what my requirements where. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jo and Spencer Hunt to anyone in the future and should I need to recruit myself, Jo would be the person I would call."

"Jo Green from Spencer Hunt approached me last year about a new position which was 100% suitable for what I was looking for. Throughout the recruitment process Jo and her team kept in constant communication with me, provided comprehensive details on the company and the role, and regular feedback throughout the (lengthy) recruitment process. I would thoroughly recommend Jo and Spencer Hunt and I am now using them to recruit a number of Consultants for me know that I have started in my new position."

"Thank you so much for your help Tracie.  If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have the chance of this life changing experience."

"At a time when there where some very mediocre recruitment to recruitment companies trying to send me for interviews for roles that were the complete antithesis of my requirements, Tracie really was a breath of fresh air. She took into account everything I was looking for, what I wanted to do and what I didn't want to do and advised me of all my options really thoroughly. I had to disappoint Tracie after being offered two positions and taking the other, but due to the personable relationship that she had taken the time to build with me, It was one of the hardest decisions I had to make and that was primarily due to her.  Completely would recommend Tracie, a fantastic recruiter."

"I just wanted to say thank you for your continued help and support whilst I was seeking employment. Both you and your team are second to none and your expertise is unrivalled in the Rec to Rec industry. Having worked with numerous other recruiters throughout the years, I must say that Spencer Hunt is the best I have ever had the pleasure of working with. You do what you say you will do and have helped me reach my goal in obtaining the position I wanted! I will have no qualms about reccommending you to the friends that I have in the industry! Thanks again"

"I have known Jo Green for over 4 years, having maintained a relationship throughout my recruitment career, despite being happily employed. As a result of the understanding we built I didn't need to look anywhere else when deciding to move on!Jo was explicitly aware of my background, but more importantly, my personality and the environment that would suit. I was soon talking to a newly hired MD, based on Jo's belief that we would work well together, and I have started an exciting role with lots of potential.No CV slinging, No square pegs in round holes, just an honest approach and true consultancy."

"I have used Tracie at Spencer Hunt to find the last two roles in my career and both times I have been more than impressed with the level of service provided by her and the team at SH. Unlike most Rec-to-Rec’s, Tracie didn’t put me forward blindly for any role that may make quick money and I felt that I was dealing with a professional who knew the market well and had my best interests at heart. Advice was honest and well researched and any constructive criticism well placed and timed. Most importantly, she listened to what I wanted in my next move and reacted to those requirements, rather than any personal agenda (again unlike most Rec-to-Rec’s)."

"After 2½ years with one recruitment company I had decided it was time for a move.  Helen at Spencer Hunt assisted me in finding this new role.  She had kept in touch with me following a meeting we had had one year earlier and so was naturally my first port of call in this search.  Through out the process I found Helen to be highly consultative and at all times, she paid attention to my needs moving into my next role (these were discussed at a recent face to face meeting).  I would have no hesitation in recommending Helen and Spencer Hunt to anyone else either looking to recruit or looking for work in the recruitment industry."

"I used the services of Tracie at Spencer Hunt to get an opportunity of a life time. Spencer Hunt are really like no other Rec to Rec. I met Tracie face to face which was a refreshing change; she listened to what I wanted in my next role and delivered. My CV was not sent to a million and one other agencies, in fact it was sent to one and thanks to Tracie's time and effort to understand what I wanted, my CV only needed to be sent to one company! I am now living a new life in Singapore and although this is a huge move for me, it has been made so much easier through clear communication, professional service and attention to detail from Tracie and the team. If you’re looking for the right move in your career I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Spencer Hunt."

"Just a quick one to say thank you for all your help.  I will have no hesitation in recommending anyone to you and Spencer Hunt.  Honest, knowledgeable, professional and real people - no pushy sales speel...  A proper company."

"I could not have been more impressed with the way that Spencer Hunt dealt with my move in December 2008. From the initial cold contact call from Helen (which was quick and concise to limit awkwardness) to signing the new contract, the process was smooth and seemingly effortless which confirmed to me that Spencer Hunt are extremely good at what they do. The industry knowledge of both Helen and Jo Green was phenomenal and put to excellent use, at no point did I feel in any way pressured or rail roaded into any unwanted interview situations, and when the process began with the company I eventually joined, interviews were organised within 24 hours and feedback was immediate. Having worked in the industry myself, it was as good an example of recruiting professionalism and agency to client relationship that I have seen."

"I would like to commend Tracie and Spencer Hunt on their fantastic and thought out search that was taken on my behalf by them. I found them to be very easy to talk to, understanding and feel that they found the best placement for me. Before using Spencer Hunt I had used many other Rec to Rec companies and found them to be all the same. Spencer Hunt really stood out with their quality of service and dedication to find the right role for the right person and if in the future if I decide to move I will use them again."

"I would like to take this opportunity to commend Tracie in not only her continued support when finding me a new position but also her professionalism and genuine care and concern that I found the right role.  I would recommend not only Tracie's services but that of Spencer Hunt when searching for a new position."

"Having never worked in recruitment before, the advice given by Tracie and the team during the process was extremely helpful. In fact, my initial meeting with Tracie was an absolute pleasure. Moreover, she was extremely knowledgeable about the firms she worked with and the culture within those organisations. Thus, I felt that I had a competitive advantage when compared to other candidates during the interview process. I feel that her efforts helped me greatly in being offered the job.Finally, her client after care has been excellent as she rang me to find out how I was settling in. I am very impressed with Spencer Hunt and would have no hesitation in recommending them to a friend."

"I was first contacted by Tracie from Spencer Hunt over the telephone at my previous place of work. Although I was not particularly interested in moving the opportunities which she initially mentioned made me think it was worthwhile to meet her for a chat. Tracie throughout our correspondence was very understanding and courteous in discussing opportunities through with me. At times where it proved difficult to talk she would provide alternative forms of communication (e.g. Txt) and be patient enough to wait for me to call back. I approached the meeting itself rather skeptically believing that all headhunting companies looked simply to put bums on seats but was positively surprised when Tracie demonstrated that she and Spencer hunt were willing to take the time to listen to my aspirations and where I wanted my career path to go. We then discussed opportunities to suit my ambitions. Throughout the interview and offer procedure Tracie remained very supportive, chasing up information which I required, however trivial, and keeping me in the loop as where the offer was up to etc. Following my acceptance Tracie remained in contact on a regular basis ensuring that I was happy with the deal and following up any queries I had for the client. I would definitely recommend Spencer Hunt and Tracie Hope to anyone who is looking for a career move. I found her services helpful, informative and friendly and have already passed on her details to a few friends within the recruitment industry who have suggested a move.Although I now feel that I have found my dream job I intend to remain in touch."

"Having worked for the same company in recruitment for the last five years I was new to the marketplace and had little idea of my options. When Jo headhunted me I found her professional, forthright and personable, not at all like the horror stories I had heard from colleagues about other Rec to Recs. Jo met me for interview, listened to my needs and requirements and quickly came up with a shortlist of suitable companies I could choose between before marketing me out to them. Jo also persuaded me to meet a client who I initially had reservations about, with whom I have now accepted a role. Throughout the recruitment process Jo kept in regular contact with me, listening to my needs and never exerting undue pressure. I would not hesitate to recommend Jo to my friends and contacts as a Rec to Rec and would definitely considering using her and Spencer Hunt in the future."

"I was referred to Jo through my colleague who was also dealing with Spencer Hunt. At the time I was really unhappy working for Netsource and was looking to further my career in Recruitment. I found Jo to be very helpful and made sure that she obtained every detail about what I wanted from my next position so that she could find me exactly what I was looking for. I found that I could be honest with Jo which is something that you don’t get with a lot of other consultants so I was able to trust her a lot more. I also found that Jo was very honest with me and if I was being unrealistic with what I wanted she would point this out rather than giving me false hopes.  Jo sent me for interviews to a wide range of company’s and by doing this I was able to gain an excellent knowledge of the recruitment market as a whole and not just one sector.  I am very happy in my new position and I believe that Jo made an excellent match. I am constantly looking for people to pass over to Jo as I am confident that she would place them in an excellent position. For me Jo comes highly recommended."

"After having a couple of dealings with Spencer hunt (both Jo Green and Helen McNamara). I would have to say that I would highly recommend them to any Recruitment Consultant that has found themselves either working in the wrong sector or company.  After meeting with Helen I set out my stall of ideal types of consultancies I would like to work for size, ethos etc. within a couple of days I had a couple of interviews arranged via Helen in which I more than happily accepted an offer from one of them, and now feel I am in the right place finally.  Helen demonstrated an excellent awareness with regards to the industry and especially a huge amount of patience as I wasn’t the easiest of candidates to work with. Although I hope I don’t need to use Spencer Hunt again, they would be the only rec2rec I would use should I need to."

"I have recently been placed as a Divisional Manager by Tracie of Spencer Hunt Recruitment. I was initially contacted by Tracie regarding a specific vacancy she was representing. She took the time to meet with me and it transpired that the vacancy was not suitable for me.  During the meeting Tracie asked relevant questions and ensured she understood my requirements to consider a move. Due to her understanding she was able to be creative with her efforts and turned up a number of alternative vancancies that I should consider. These vacancies were obviously matched to my requirements which meant that she had listened to what I had asked for. Tracie had taken the time to understand my next move was a career move and ensured the opportunities she presented were relevant and appropriate.  Throughout my search process Tracie conducted herself with professionalism and ensured that she anticipated the information required to assist me. She not only provided client information, but it was clear that she had a working relationship with the clients she represented, ensuring I was kept informed and updated on the process of my applications.  Throughout the process I found Tracie to be supportive and realistic in her dealings with me, a refreshing change from the sales-pitch rec' to rec' consultants who constantly headhunt in this market place.  I would definitely recommend Spencer Hunt to contact should you be looking for a career move and have already done so to a number of colleagues and friends."

"I would like to thank you for your time and efforts in assisting me gain the position of Divisional Manager. Having used Spencer Hunt in the past as a client I was aware of the professional standards you set and this was only reinforced when working with you as a candidate. Whilst I had stated that I was not `Actively` seeking a new position, you presented me with an opportunity that suited perfectly and was unique in the market, without bombarding me with irrelevent opportunities. I found your approach to be supportive throughout. Many thanks."

"Tracie and the team at Spencer Hunt took the time out to establish what I was looking for in my next career move during a face to face meeting, and they presented me with 2 opportunities that both fully fitted what I was looking for.  The whole process was both professional and friendly with all the feedback and communication exactly how agreed. If Tracie was not at hand there was always some one available to answer any questions that I might have had throughout my search.  Ultimately the sign of a good recruitment to recruitment organisation is that I am now in a role that is exactly what I was looking for.  There will only be one choice when I need to use a rec to rec service Spencer Hunt, it was a privilege to work with Tracie and Jo and it has restored my faith in the environment."

"I just wanted to say a huge thanks for all your help in my job search. I'm delighted to be making the move into legal recruitment (fab that you convinced them to see me even though I've not worked in legal recruitment previously). It was a pleasure to meet with you and I am delighted that you really listened to me and understood the kind of organisation I want to work with. Having been in recruitment for many years, I felt very strong that I knew exactly what I did and didn't want and you certainly seemed to pick up on that quickly and easily. I was relived that you understood my thoughts on the job move and you were really supportive throughout."

"I recently utilised the services of Spencer Hunt following my decision to look for a new position earlier this year. I found the service they offered to be a class apart from any other rec to rec firm I have used. In all honesty I had a very dim view of that sector, but I can say now that the service provided was outstanding. My needs and aspirations were listened to and acted upon swiftly, leading to me securing an excellent role within 3 weeks of commencing the search, and one which matched my criteria exactly. I would be happy to recommend them to anyone and I certainly will not look elsewhere should I need help with my next move. Thanks for the great new job!!!!"

"I would like to recommend Spencer Hunt Recruitment to anyone in the recruitment sector looking for their next move, having been approached by other head-hunters in the past I can say that their level of professionalism during the time I was looking for a new move is unrivalled.  I met with both Helen and Jo before meeting with any potential employers and was thoroughly impressed by their level of commitment and contact throughout the whole process, they both have an excellent and unrivalled understanding of the recruitment market place, and found me the ideal company which would value my skills and provide me with the next stepping stone in my career."

"Having been in recruitment for a number of years, I was delighted how Spencer Hunt helped with my job hunting. After my initial meeting with Helen I was confident that I would be only put forward to career opportunities that would suit my requirements. I was impressed that suitable interviews were arranged quickly and unlike other Rec 2 Rec's I was supplied with Job Descriptions and company information. I would recommend Spencer Hunt to other colleagues who would expect the high level of service."

"Being in a managerial role for a number of years put me in a position when I was looking for a new role and change of market my options were fairly limited. I contacted Jo for some advice and after a few phone calls she was talking to me about the role I am currently in!!! The skill shown by Jo and her staff has been second to none and thanks to their hard work and meticulous attention to my needs as a candidate, I am now very happy and settled in a new more challenging role. I highly recommend Spencer Hunt on the basis of professionalism, confidentiality and excellent market knowledge."

"Joanne helped me to find my new position within company c. I found her to be well informed about the organisations that she works with and the culture of her teams within these companies. She suggested several organisations that I might be interested in and was able to provide detailed information regarding each of the companies that she had recommended.  She managed me through a 3 stage interview process with company c and was very quick to deliver feedback and comments from these meetings. I found her to be very friendly and helpful with a real focus on understanding of candidate's requirements.  I began work with company c at the beginning of October and I am confident that Joanne has helped me to find a very suitable role that I will enjoy for the foreseeable future."

"I was placed by Jo in a Regional Manager role for the north nearly 6 months ago. I have recommended ex colleagues to Jo when they have been looking for new career opportunities due to the accuracy of the suitability of the positions offered to me. In fact, only one position was pursued actively by Jo for me to go to the interview and she insisted that I saw the client!! Three interviews later I took the position that I was offered and to be honest I could not be happier.  Spencer Hunt did not bombard me with opportunities that were close to the mark, but not close enough they did pressure me into the interview with this company but for the right reasons!!!  I hope not to have to use Spencer Hunt again, but if I were to be on the market again Jo would be my first call.  I am now using Jo to source consultants in 3 different locations and have every faith in a successful outcome."

"I was extremely impressed with the service I received as a candidate from Jo at Spencer Hunt. She listened carefully to my requirements and approached my job search in an extremely professional yet very friendly manner.  She took time to understand exactly what sort of company I would be interested in and did not send me out to pointless interviews. What also filled me with confidence was that fact that Jo had personally met all the directors' who I was attending interview with. Having completed a law degree and with experience in recruitment, I was very keen to move into legal recruitment. Although I did not have direct experience of this, Jo was still able to find me some excellent opportunities. I would recommend Spencer Hunt highly!!"

"I have been in recruitment since 2000. I originally joined a Commercial Team of a privately owned Consultancy and in a short space of time became the manager of the division. Due to relocating down to Manchester I joined a Technical Consultancy to provide me with a new challenge and learned about engineering in particular the Nuclear Industry. After a year and a half I decided to join a large Construction Company who had an internal recruitment division however unfortunately things did not work about and I became very unhappy with my role so took the bold step of leaving without another job to go to! Within 3 hours of me leaving my mobile rang and it was Jo of Spencer Hunt who said she had just learned I had left my job and could she be of assistance? I went in the next day to see Jo and was delighted to find she actually listened to what I wanted and where I felt my strengths and weaknesses lay. Later on the same day she arranged an interview for me with company a and within a couple of days of meeting with them I had an offer and they had an acceptance.  In today's recruitment market there are lots of Rec to Rec companies out there but very few take the time to find out candidates career aspirations beyond reading their C.V and I felt that Jo took that extra bit of time in ensuring I joined the right company which indeed I did."
