Testimonials
"In the past I have stayed away from Rec 2 Recs but HR&S has truly restored my faith with their extreme professionalism. They took out the time to meet me in person and listen to ,what it was that I was looking for, in order to progress my career. They always took out the time to brief me fully before approaching any clients, and I never felt I was pushed into any opportunities that were not right for me. Heywood - Professional, Caring, Genuine. I will not hesitate recommending you to friends."
Alieh Yadegari – Researcher, Healthcare Search Specialist
"I have known Simon from H&RS for around 7 years, he has always acted with distinction as advisor, career councillor and supplier in almost equal measure. He has proven himself to have my best interests in mind throughout the highs and lows of my career regardless whether I was speaking to him as a candidate or a client. I have always found his advice relevant, robust, informed and honest and I hold him in the highest esteem as someone who will help me grow any business I am part of. As with most long term successful recruiters he has the innate ability to know who will fit in where. He encourages entrepreneurial sprit within the mid market, assisting candidates moving up from contingency space however also give his own view of reality. I haven`t met anyone better in the executive search recruitment to recruitment market."
Raj Tulsiani, CEO, Green Park Interim & Executive Resourcing

"I am amazed at the lack of professionalism shown in the rec-to-rec market, so well done for being a cut above the rest."
T.H., Financial Markets Search Consultant, Boutique Firm
"During my recent career search, I assumed my future employment would be secured by myself and not a 'rec-to-rec' recruiter. Heywood was recommended as a fall-back option to my search.
Throughout our discussions , I found their input to be commercial, insightful and objective. Not only did he place me, he will undoubtably prove a valuable consultant to operate on the 'other side of the desk' on my behalf. Job well done, HR&S!"
Jonathan Jones - Senior Finance C&I Manager, Advantage Professional
"We have used HR&S for several years for recruiting consultants and resourcers. Over the years, their service levels have been consistently high, providing sound impartial advice during the recruitment process. They have found us some very good people. They have been flexible enough to adapt to our changing business needs. Our current consultant, really is a good recruitment partner. "
Sheldon Paule, Chief Executive, Cameron Kennedy
"I have recently started working with HR&S and would like to say how impressed I have been with their ability to listen to my requirements and provide a professional and consultative service appropriate to my brief.
I find the current market conditions very challenging, as quality candidates have several options and are aggressively pursued by a variety of firms. HR&S has consistently managed my recruitment process effectively and assisted candidates to make the decision that is best for their development. I recommend HHR&S to prospective clients without hesitation."
Richard Pickard - Manager, Ambition
"In such a candidate short market it is essential that we have confidence in our recruitment partners to deliver good quality personnel. HR&S has listened to our needs, taken time to understand our business and has consistently found the right candidates for us. I strongly recommend them as someone who is head and shoulders above their competition!"
Mark Woolford - Senior Manager, Jonathan Wren
"HR&S called me just as I was about to accept a job elsewhere and thank goodness they did! They arranged for us to meet within a few hours of contacting me and organised an interview, with my now employer, for me that day- 5 months later I'm loving my job; am working for a fantastic company and enjoying being very successful. I can't thank HR&S enough."
Emily Walker, Permanent Consultant, Harvey Nash
"...the data (research into recruitment salaries) had proved invaluable and will be implemented in April."
David Crawford, Managing Director, Carlisle Staffing Services
"HR&S reacted with an urgency and tailored approach to my requirements that is unparalled within their industry. Within 24 hours of meeting with them I had several interviews confirmed with agencies that matched my profile. I was consulted on every stage of the process and detailed feedback was provided after every interview. They took time to listen to my needs and never once did I feel pushed towards unsuitable roles. Due to their professionalism, broad range of roles and unsurpassed level of candidate service I would have no hesitation in recommending them to my friends and peers."
Name Withheld, Internal Audit Consultant, Michael Page
"We first started working with HR&S after they were recommended to us by a candidate that we met through another source. During the 6 months that they have been supplying us they have taken the time to understand our organisation and the high quality threshold that we set for recruits. HR&S is very active in headhunting potential candidates and they arrive well briefed about JM and nearly always make it through to subsequent interviews. They are very vigilant during the offer stage and helped us get all the people that we have offered. Most importantly HR&S have found 3 excellent people for us who are all doing well."
Louise Smith, Managing Director, JM
