Listen. Advise. Deliver.

“Having worked with Cedar for several years they have become the first port of call when looking to fill a position. They have consistently delivered a selection of high-quality candidates. For interim placements, Cedar has the bench to provide quality individuals quickly and efficiently.”

“I came to know Cedar when they placed me as a candidate a number of years ago, and have used them a number of times since then. They have always taken the time to understand the dynamics of the role and culture of the team and the organisation. They also understand that time is precious, and have always provided high quality shortlists and well briefed candidates. They are my first ‘go to’ option when I am recruiting in the UK, and have placed a number of successful people with me.”

“Cedar has assisted us in a number of senior financial recruitment campaigns. They take the time to understand what the critical drivers are for a candidate to succeed within our business and provide strong consultative advice on the most effective ways to secure the best talent available in the market. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cedar as a genuinely value adding recruitment partner.”

“We commissioned Cedar to fill a challenging Senior Strategy Manager role which required a very specific set of competencies. Cedar not only provided a fast and efficient service but were a pleasure to work with, responsive and accommodating of our recruitment timescales. They identified relevant individuals in a highly  professional manner and constantly demonstrated a clear commitment to succeed. I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar and will be working with then again in the future.”

“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.”

“Belron UK recently engaged Cedar to support recruitment for an urgent interim requirement. Cedar quickly established our requirements, both technically and culturally and provided a shortlist of CVs along with succinct candidate profiles. This meant we were able to quickly appoint the right candidate for delivery of a key project and we will be working with Cedar again to fulfil other requirements across the business. It was a pleasure to partner with a professional agency who provided an outstanding service.”

“Recruiting in Procurement was new for me coming from a Finance background and having previously managed a stable procurement team.

Cedar has helped me to recruit two roles in my new Procurement team: an interim IT Procurement Manager and a permanent Procurement Analyst and on both occasions Louise has made the process as easy and efficient as possible.

For the interim IT Procurement Manager, after discussing my requirements, they sent me the CV of the perfect candidate who was available on short notice and experienced in the area. They organised a meeting with the candidate within days and even the culture matched my organisation. I hired the candidate immediately for a start on the following Monday. The candidate is doing a great job in her role and is an asset to the team.

For the Procurement Analyst, I asked Cedar for help after having a bad experience with another recruitment agency due to the specific nature of the role.

They provided a short list of candidates that were spot on and despite one candidate disappointingly accepting an offer somewhere else, the new recruit is starting this week.

Cedar’s ability to understand requirements both technically and in relation to procurement competencies along with Cedar’s effective processes have delivered success for my team.”

“Having worked with Cedar for a number of years they have become the first port of call when I am looking to fill a position.  They have consistently delivered a selection of high-quality and well-vetted candidates to the business and most importantly candidates who are appropriate for the role on offer.  Clearly, a lot of thought and time goes in to this process and it is the mark of a great agency when the candidates are not only very targeted to the role but well prepared for the interview.

I have sourced both interims and permanent candidates and on the interim side, Cedar has the bench to be able to provide quality individuals quickly and efficiently.  The absolute key to our relationship has been the deep understanding by Cedar of our business, what we are looking for in people, and being able to provide candidates who fit the roles and culture of our company.”
