Kate was very good at building relationships with the hiring manager to understand the type of candidate required. My favourite things were the personal touches, a real understanding of the requirements of the role but also of the less tangible things.

Katie Bates, UK People & Culture Manager, Coba International Ltd
Macildowie screened the candidates thoroughly, not just for job suitability but also for business and team fit. They took the time to get know, not only what the vacancy was, but also who we were as a business, our mission, our vision and how we were looking to grow.

Natasha Glenn, Credit Control Manager, Citron Hygiene
Macildowie had a great pool of candidates and filtered the CV’s effectively which, for me, took out the hard work of finding the correct individuals.

Rakesh Sava, Accounting Manager, STERIS® Solutions Limited
Our experience was different from other recruiters we’ve used. Macildowie tend to screen candidates and only send those suitable

Nina Harris, Finance Manager, Omega Red Group Ltd
Delighted with the service Macildowie have provided, placing two fantastic candidates into my team in a tough candidate market…exactly what I needed. Thank you!

Natalie Walker, Head of HR, Now Pensions
My favourite thing about Macildowie was the bespoke targeted service. I was surprised by the speed with which we got a strong shortlist of candidates.

Ellis Rooney, Site Finance Manager, Pepsico
What surprised me most was the speed at which candidates were sourced and that all candidates submitted for initial screen were of the right calibre to interview

Carol-Ann Martin, HR Manager, Healthnet Homecare
The candidates who joined us felt really well informed about the process and said how honest & open Macildowie were to work with.
