Michael helped place me in my current role, he was consistent in communication throughout the process and made sure I was fully aware of where I was at each stage. Is clearly well-connected in the industry and gave good guidance for both parties throughout. Is a Leeds fan, but you can't have everything!

Sam, and his team, did a great job of always being available to me. I never felt like an afterthought and we had several conversations prepping me for my interviews that gave me a lot of confidence in my abilities to go out and crush it.

Sam is by far the best recruiter I have ever worked with. He was excellent through the whole hiring process and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He was consistent with his communications and followed through on everything he said he would do in a timely manner. While the first role he brought to my attention was not a good fit, he stuck with me and found me the perfect opportunity. Again, I highly recommend Sam and am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him!

I've had the pleasure of working with Sam from both sides of the table. Initially Sam recruited and got me placed in my current position. He understood the company goals, culture and ultimately their needs while explaining how my talents would be an asset to the company. He worked with me throughout the process to keep me up to speed and filled in details as needed. Since then, I have been utilizing Sam to fill positions in my team from directors to individual contributors and he has always made the job of finding qualified candidates much easier and smoother for my team as we continue to grow.
