What they’re saying about usSuccess stories from our valued candidates and clients
“Having dealt successfully with Cedar in the past, I was confident in appointing them to deliver this project and they again exceeded expectations. From start to finish they delivered a consultative and value added service, the culmination of which has meant we hired three great candidates. I have no hesitation in recommending Cedar.”
“Our most recent hire nearly didn’t happen. Only through the tenacity and insight of Howard and his team at Cedar were we finally persuaded to interview the candidate who we eventually hired, otherwise his CV could still be sitting on the ‘unlikely to be appropriate pile’. Cedar offer a genuinely consultative service and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.”
“Working with Cedar as a candidate and client has been an excellent experience. As a candidate, I was provided with a thorough briefing of a potential client’s background and requirements, which helped to properly prepare for the all-important initial meetings. Conversely, when I required additional resource, Cedar were quick to understand my requirements and provide an outstanding choice of candidates who could hit the ground running and work under tight deadlines. An excellent service all round from Cedar.”
“I met with Cedar as we were struggling to fill the Interim Project Accountant position despite using other recruitment agencies for a number of weeks. After discussing our brief in detail with Cedar we were confident they understood the urgency of the project and knew exactly what skills/ experience we were looking for. They also understood the type of personality we needed to fit into our existing team. Cedar sent thought a shortlist of fantastic candidates who were immediately available that same afternoon. After a quick and efficient interview process we hired our perfect candidate and she started working with us on the Monday – the end to end process took just 4 working days. Cedar have access to an impressive database of interim candidates who are available at speed.”
“Following a failed open recruitment process for a media and marketing procurement manager, Cedar were recommended to me by another charity and I was very happy with the service I received. Cedar matched us with a high calibre candidate who had the technical skills and cultural fit that we needed. I am very happy with the appointment.”
“We worked with Cedar on a challenging position that other recruiters had struggled to fill. They quickly understood the brief and sourced high quality candidates. We are very pleased with the process and outcome.”
“I cannot thank Cedar Recruitment enough for their professionalism, communicativeness, support, and for finding me the perfect job match! They’ve been a genuine partner for me throughout the whole process.”
“We engaged with Cedar for the hiring of a Finance Manager in one of our portfolio companies. The team I worked with demonstrated a deep understanding of the role’s needs and great professionalism throughout the process. What we liked the most about Cedar was that, despite the very narrow brief of the role, they managed to introduce a very diverse set of suitable candidates, each of whom had unique strengths to contribute, beyond the role’s requirements. The diversity of the candidates introduced contributed to us being even more confident in our final candidate choice. We would highly recommend Cedar as Recruitment Consultants. Thank you very much for your support in this, I look forward to working with you again in the future!”
