What our clients say:

Mark has been a brilliant help and support during my recruitment into James Hall. I had constant support throughout the recruitment process and beyond during the induction phase. Mark knows his job and retail very well and knows how to select the right people for the best roles. Thank you so very much.

Mark Gammidge, Convenience Store Manager

Adem has advised and assisted me with several applications and career changes over the years and last year placed me in Karen Millen. He was so supportive and professional, which lead to me being so happy at work now- it’s the perfect role for me and I’m so grateful for all his advice and time! I’d strongly recommend him, and do, to anyone looking for sound advice and support every step of the way!

Sophie London, Dual Site Retail Manager at Karen Millen

Great people to work with but Zac’s BBQing skills leave a lot to be desired.
