Who we work with

This is a two part answer.

We only represent an organisation after we have assessed them as a business and concluded that we are confident partners to help achieve their growth strategy.

We engage in a detailed conversation with their CEO/ senior leadership team, and we look at what they are designed to do, their history, their vision, their culture and if they are offering career defining opportunities/ justifications for their next hire(s).

If our values don’t align, we politely decline to proceed.

Most if not all the experienced candidates we represent are exclusive headhunt approaches, successful individuals who are keeping an open mind to what could be available to them outside their current firm.

We approach talented recruiters with a meaningful opportunity, often tailored to their experience with the freedom to further develop their career alongside an uplift in earning potential.

I have worked with Tom over a number of years and he has become my go-to recruiter when I need to find good talent. I have happily recommended him to colleagues and he has worked particularly well on quite specialist searches for us. What I love about working with Tom is that he is honest, only introduces me to genuinely relevant people and works as a true partner to get things over the line. He listens to feedback, knows the candidates he introduces us to and genuinely has their interests at heart. Anyone who has joined us through Tom’s introduction speaks highly of him and talks about how well he has supported them.

I've known Tommy for 20 years and have recommended him to many colleagues and friends during that time. He is authentic, hard-working and absolutely passionate about recruitment. He always goes out of his way to understand company values and aims to find genuine fit with the people he introduces. Beyond that, and importantly in my opinion, he's a good person with a fun personality and great sense of humour.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Tom during a pivotal point in my career journey and I genuinely can’t thank him enough. From the very beginning, Tom went above and beyond, offering not just professional guidance, but a level of personal support that truly made all the difference. He never tried to sell the dream or sugar-coat anything, which I deeply appreciated. Instead, Tom offered honest, realistic advice grounded in experience and that made me feel incredibly supported and well-prepared. He was always a trustworthy ear, genuinely listening to my concerns, hopes, and hesitations without judgement. What set Tom apart was his ability to make me feel confident enough to put myself out there. His encouragement was never forced or generic, it was sincere, considered and exactly what I needed at the time. He was an integral part of my growth and belief in myself throughout the process. I truly hope our paths cross again in the future. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Tom to anyone looking for not just a recruiter, but a genuine ally in their career. Thank you, Tom you really made a difference.

Relocating to the UK market after nearly two decades abroad can be both exciting and daunting. As someone who recently returned from Australia after 18 years, I wasn’t sure what to expect when re-entering the London job market. Working with Tom made a real difference in that transition. He brought a strong understanding of the current London landscape and, more importantly, an optimistic perspective on how my international experience could translate locally. His insight helped turn what could have been a challenge into a genuine opportunity. It’s rare to come across someone who can balance deep market knowledge with a practical, forward-thinking attitude — and for that, I’m incredibly grateful.
