Banking Associate
Lee has a refreshingly genuine and personable approach to recruitment. He understood what I was seeking and used his connections well to match me to the right options. Thank you for a relatively seamless and efficient job hunt - and for the congratulatory lunch thereafter!
Jonathan Isaacs
Marc has delivered a properly consultative service to Red Commerce and has filled some of our most business critical and 'hard-to-find' positions. He understands the challenges that our business faces and the skills we need to overcome these challenges, and his candidates always hit the nail on the head. Marc's candidate management skills are exceptional and he sets all candidates' expectations in exactly the right place; this and his commitment to providing accurate and honest feedback to both us and his candidates at every stage of the process has always given us the best chance of securing the people that we want to hire. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Marc to anyone who is looking to hire top legal talent!
