G. Metcalfe:

“From my initial contact through to job placement I have received first class service from Kate at Willcox Matthews. Regular contact and a friendly professional service. Thanks for the opportunity to further my career.”

A. Peranzi:

“What more can I say about how great the team at Willcox Matthews is ? When all of the other reviews have already covered every single detail ? I guess, I have to highlight Josh B, he contacted me, offering my new role and very diligently answered all my questions, gave great advice and liaised with my new company right up to my start date. I found the recruitment process very straightforward and really friendly, this is the first time that I have moved to a new role and other recruiters have contacted me in the past, but the experience felt rushed and made me fee like they were just after the commission from the employer. I don’t think I’ll be changing roles for the foreseeable future, but if I do, I’ll definitely check what options Willcox Mathews has before even checking any job sites. Thanks for all the help and support guys.”

R. Bravington:

“Wilcox Matthews got in contact with me when I was looking for new employment. I have worked with Many recruiters over the years. But I found the level of service with Wilcox Matthews (Connie) professional and informative.
They found me a dream job. I would highly recommend there service.”

Excellent communication skills, professionalism and remarkable relationship management are just a few of the many qualities witnessed and worth mentioning. I have no doubts to recommend.
Thanks for all the support!”

Shaun Mollon, Director @ Plazology: 

“Plazology have been using Willcox Matthews for the past year and have successfully placed two excellent candidates with very different job specifications.

As a company and me personally, I have tried to stay away from recruitment companies as I have found them very hit and miss. Many times have vetted CV’s which are nowhere near the level required of the job specification provided. In Willcox Matthews case, this has never been the situation; to date, every CV I have read has been of interest and quality. They listen carefully to our job specifications requirements, and having spent many hours going through Linkedin, and CV-Library I am amazed how quickly Jake and his team deliver alternative candidates, saving me time and allowing me to focus on other tasks within Plazology.

I look forward to developing our recruitment strategy further as both our businesses grow in size”.

Tatiana:

“I have been contacted by Jake in regards to a position that he believed I would be suitable for, and we always communicated well with each other. Whenever he was away, he would call back as soon as possible, or had someone else calling me if needed. It has been great working with Jake and a bit with the two Matthews 😁, especially because I got the job. Thank you all for your help and support along the way!”

 

A. Birchall:
