John is passionate about matching potential candidates to suitable roles. He has a direct and honest approach which I have found to be refreshing. He takes time to fully understand the candidates' requirements and skills. Whilst I have been looking for a new role he has kept in regular contact to ensure that I have felt fully supported and updated. I would strongly recommend John and his colleagues.

Working with John at Henry Nicholas is a pleasure. He really listens to my recruitment requirements, asks lots of questions, and sends truly appropriate candidates for interview. I would much rather focus on quality than quantity, which is what I get. I wouldn’t hesitate to brief John/Henry Nicholas in the future, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend John either.

John and his team are superb. Very proactive and refreshingly straightforward to deal with. I would thoroughly recommend them if you're looking for the right person or the right role.

John has been working with Archant Specialist for the last 6 months when we first decided to relocate a variety of our sales functions to Cheltenham. He took time to learn about us as a business, and therefore our needs and requirements. As a result we have only had to interview people that were absolutely relevant to our business and have hired most of them.

I engaged Andy to recruit for an urgent position within our agency. Knowing the candidate pool in our area was very shallow, I was very impressed by the speed and the quality of CV's Andy provided. He took time to learn our requirements both in skill set and cultural fit and provided us with a great candidate who has now become a valued member of my team. Overall a really great job and a pleasure to do business with. I highly recommend Andy to anyone who is looking to recruit and do so with confidence.

Andrew is quite simply a standout recruiter. In the past three months, I have seen probably over one hundred job descriptions and have spoken to countless recruiters. Andrew is up there as one of the best two recruiters and, in this competitive space where agencies strive for excellence, that's saying a lot. Andrew is always polite, never pushy, a superb listener, an absolute ninja at matching CVs to roles and a great human being. All too often, a conversation with a recruiter can feel mechanical, but that's certainly not the case with Andrew. And, to top it all off, Andrew is perfect at liaising between the candidate and the hiring company, even when there are monumental hurdles to overcome.
