What they’re saying about usSuccess stories from our valued candidates and clients
“We recently retained Cedar to help us find a high calibre finance director within a very tight timescale. Cedar provided a shortlist of 5 excellent candidates within 10 working days, each one of which could have performed very well in the role. They managed the search process effectively and efficiently, ensuring that we were able to appoint our preferred candidate. I would have no hesitation in referring Cedar to any business looking to hire Senior Finance Professionals.”
Livingstone
“When our Managed Service Provider (MSP) was unable to provide suitable candidates for Denmark and Portugal, I tasked Cedar to support us across two projects. All our roles across both countries were filled within a short timescale. Cedar was informative and engaging throughout the process, working well with the Hiring Managers. I highly recommend Cedar; we would have been lost without them.”
Willis Towers Watson
“We engaged Cedar to assist us with a particularly specific brief. Their attention to the process was excellent, candidates were all of a high quality and they gave good quality advice to us throughout the search. Having worked in the industry I know first-hand how much effort they put into the search. Well done and thanks.”
Ladbrokes
“Cedar quickly and efficiently supplied us with two shortlists of international candidates, from which we hired two exceptional people. Cedar provided consultative advice throughout the process and their transparent approach helped us secure our chosen candidates. I was deeply impressed with their full understanding of our requirements and the speed at which they worked without sacrificing quality. I would thoroughly recommend them.”
Intuit
“Cedar has placed a number of strong candidates within our Finance team and we can always rely on their promptness, quality and professionalism.”
Optegra
“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.”
Save The Children
“I’ve worked with Cedar on a number of recruitment opportunities over the last few years which, in an industry where the maxim that ‘you are only as good as your last assignment’ is particularly relevant, is testament to the quality of service that they provide. Cedar has made a conscious effort to understand my management philosophy and the things that are important to me. They also take the time to understand the corporate culture and the environment into which I am looking to recruit. This results in an efficient recruitment process, a relevant short list and appointments that have a fighting chance of success.”
Associated British Foods PLC
“Hats off to you on this one. The candidate you supplied is a great advert for Cedar. “
