I joined Investigo last year (after 4-5 years in the recruitment industry) and genuinely can’t think of a better platform to build an exceptional recruitment/search career. The standard set within the firm is tier 1, the leadership have a strategy and drive that is shared throughout + they provide all the support someone could need to get there - best thing is everyone has a fun time doing it. Looking forward to the future

I've worked with Luke Colley over my last couple of roles and have to say his professionalism and insight has been invaluable. He has introduced me to some great opportunities over the years and has always been incredibly helpful and honest in his feedback. I look forward to many more years of working with Luke and the team and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a role within FM operations / senior management.

My experience with Investigo - Lorraine Johnson, particularly - has been nothing short of excellent. Very friendly since the beginning and really engaged with the whole process. Lorraine has kept frequent contact to let me know about every step of the process and even after I got the job, Lorraine is still very engaged, approachable, always available to help when needed. Investigo has actually changed my life, I must say. So thank you, Investigo! :)

Julian Wakeford belongs to a small niche of recruiters who work hard on both sides: the client and most importantly the candidate. I have been fortunate enough to experience Julian's thorough and yet very personal approach with his candidates: Assessment: a great understanding of the hiring company's requirements, matched with the candidate's most relevant and matching competencies. Preparation: a detailed pack to the candidate with information about the hiring company and how to perform well at interviews, Organization: attention to details, timely reminders to the candidate for upcoming interviews, full availability (almost) 24/7 for any last minute questions, Communication & relationship: ultra-transparency - Julian is someone I can trust, prompt feedback and regular updates - Julian is genuine interested and eager to maintain regular conversations with his candidates and always available to talk. In a nutshell, a star! LR

L. N.

It has been a pleasure working with Investigo while searching for my desired interim finance role. Julian Wakeford & his team secured interviews for me very quickly and gave lots of guidance for my preparation which is much appreciated. They are very responsive and have made each step of the recruitment and onboarding process as simple as possible for me. I will be in touch when I'm looking for my next role!

J. C.

I'd like to take my hat off to Investigo for finding me my current contract. I'd seen the advert posted but assessed that, although I felt I was good for the role, it didn't look like that on paper. Chris Brown had the foresight to see through all of that and reached out to offer the role. As a long outsider I then won the role and have enjoyed it ever since. A remarkable bit of visionary work by Chris.

P. H.

Working with Chris Brown to secure and negotiate a PM Contract with ABP. Chris was at all times professional, accessible and (compared to other Recruiters) I felt that Chris was representing me to the Client and not simply trying to close the deal. His perspective was always realistic and credible. He kept me updated on all the necessary communications and arrangements for and post-interview, providing me with timely feedback and advancing through the Admin./Paperwork to help me have a smooth transition. Based on this experience I would very much recommended Investigo.

E. M.

I have been working with Sean and I could not run out of great things to say about him- he is extremely professional, helpful, and thorough. I've worked with recruiters in the past but I have never felt as if they were "at bat for me" as much as Sean has been. I will most definitely be recommending him to all of my colleagues who are looking for new jobs.

M. P.

I have worked with Luke Colley from both aspects of recruitment, being placed and recruitment. Investigo set themselves above other organisations by truly understanding both the roles and the candidates. The personal and professional approach is refreshing, I find Luke responsive and professional. I would highly recommend their services, and look forward to working in partnership with them for years to come.

L. J.

Investigo definitely are second to none! I was placed by Luke Colley and found the Luke took the time to really understand my requirements and personality to ensure genuine matches for potential roles and subsequently longevity! His industry knowledge, understanding of what people want, the ability to challenge with humility and network are perfect! In the few instances I interacted with the wider team at Investigo I found this to be the same. Having used Investigo to source candidates I can confidently say i was met with the same attributes! Given the market it can be an easy mistake to make to think that they are no different from other talent sourcing organisation but it's my view that the team's ability to create a more robust connection with candidates and recruiters places Investigo ahead of the rest!

K. T.

My experience with Investigo has been very positive, Lorraine is very friendly and kept me informed about the process of getting my current contract. She dealt with any queries I had swiftly. I would highly recommend Investigo

A. B.

Having decided to change career, I joined Investigo at the beginning of the year with no previous recruitment experience. They have given great support, guidance and provided a fantastic platform for me to develop my recruitment skills with an opportunity to working in an exciting and growing market. Can't recommend them enough!

A. G.

Simon helped me secure my latest role and was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He took the time to understand my situation and the type of role I was looking for, and only put me forward once we had agreed that it looked like a suitable opportunity. He also ensured that I was well prepared for every stage of the recruitment process, and gave me a few unconventional interview tips which really helped! I would highly recommend Simon and Investigo to both employers and candidates due to their friendly, honest and professional approach to recruitment.

S. O.

Lauren Pocknell has now placed me two times and has been amazing. From start to finish, she's been an absolute pleasure to work with. We talked about several roles before landing my new position and she went out of her way to keep me updated and check in with any progress at every stage. Lauren and her team got me through BPSS quicker than I've ever been through it before (2-3 days), meaning I was able to start work very quickly with the client. In a market where there are so many agents, often with little differentiation in their offering - Lauren and Investigo stand out as a recruitment company I'd love to deal with going forward into the future. Thank you Lauren!

I have worked at Investigo for nearly 3 years and I have to say its one of the best companies I've been in. Its a really fun but professional environment and has a real family feel about it. People here genuinely want to make sure that you are happy and will support you to be a fantastic consultant. The People and Culture team they now have in place is amazing! They've made me feel welcome and I've had many 1:1s with them and Sarah. They really care about making a difference and provide support both in terms of development and progression as well as sound advice on more general things as an employee. Benefits are pretty good here too!

K. M.

Brilliant service! I was contacted by Chris at investigo in the morning, my CV was submitted for a temp contract that afternoon, video call interview with the client the following day, offered the contract that day! Chris has been great, very responsive and helpful, I can't fault him.....

O. W.

I find the team at Investigo to be very engaging, dependable and high in integrity. They have identified several people for our company successfully. They have also provided more than just a CV to a job posting for me, it's always a personal journey and they're always willing to go that extra mile. A special thank you to our very effective account manager David Blanco, who is a pleasure to recommend as an accomplished recruiting professional.

A. D.

Can't fault my experience with Investigo, they have been professional from the start. My recruiter Shendl has been great throughout the process! Would highly recommend!

O. V.

Efficient to summarize shortly. Within a week from the first contact with Chris Long, i had interviewed with the company and secured the job and had the start date on hand! Very professional, easy and smooth! Thank you!

D. Ö.

I had a great experience with Investigo and people from Investigo since day 1. They are very proffesional , had a lot patience and guided with significant expertise. Special thanks to Chris, Terry and David.

J. M.

I worked with Clint and it was an exceptional experience. He placed me with the perfect company and put me on the exact career path I was seeking. Many thanks!!!

A. M.

Shendl was a pleasure to work with. Right from the beginning she understood exactly what I was looking for to fill my vacancies. Her communication was excellent throughout the whole process - I would highly recommend her to others.

E. C.

I joined in late 2020 at a very challenging time. The level of support in my professional and personal development has been unbelievable - but more crucially I have the pleasure of being part of a team that are not only exceptional colleagues in what they do day to day, but personal friends. I couldn't recommend Investigo more as a workplace from both a professional expertise and cultural standpoint.

b. m.

Sohaila Hamid placed me in my current role and is now helping me find candidates to build out the team. Sohaila is focused on delivery and has great energy and commitment and a real pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Sohaila expertise for your recruitment needs!

C. M.

Excellent recruitment agency! I worked with David Blanco, Rohit Shah and Harrison Bristowe for a number of years across the finance, finance change and transformation world and they quickly became my go-to agency. I worked in the MSP environment for a leading retailer and so quick results and quality were paramount to our success and Investigo consistently delivered when called upon. The firm act with integrity and go the extra mile to truly understand their clients which give them a significant edge when recruiting. In the MSP world, you are encouraged to use a number of agencies within your supply chain for urgent requirements but I had every confidence in giving Investigo sole/exclusive work as they had proved time and time again that they will fulfil the role to my client's standards and expectations. They are extremely well connected in the industry and are always willing to share market insights and be a trusted partner. Highly recommended - can't thank David Blanco and his team enough.

M. S.

I joined Investigo 4 months ago. I’ve experienced a business that’s both ambitious, caring, progressive and human. I’d encourage anyone looking for a career in our industry to meet one of the senior board to see if they can shape a role to meet your ambitions

L. D. F.

David Blanco is my go to person at Investigo. He is extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. For me Investigo is not just an agency who is there to fill my roles when I need them too - it's a true partnership. David is extremely good at his job and he understands and listens. If I have to choose an agency - I will choose David Blanco and Investigo over and over! Keep up the good work and quality of candidates and support you give me!

David Manfield is without doubt the best recruitment professional I have ever worked with. He has placed me at my last two roles and both have been fantastic.

S. W.

Absolutely brilliant organisation. The best company I have ever worked for. Immensely pleased I decided to move here 3 years ago and intend on staying for many years more.

S. P.

Great service from Chris, complete transparency from the start to end process. Although haven’t started the role yet, the company has been very supportive throughout and wouldn’t expect any different upon starting, I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone.

Y. A.

Currently Im working with Shedl Van-Wyk. Previously I didn't have faith working with recruitment agency because of some bad experience in the past but she restored my trust and faith working with agency agian. She has such a positive energy that makes you feel she is very genuine and real which makes me feel confidence for the role Im applying for.

M. T.

Incredible service. Great response time, Charlotte Day was so helpful and found the perfect role for me within days

R. U.

Investigo greatly impressed me during my recent search for a new role. I had a very positive experience working with Simon Warburton, his responsiveness and support throughout the interview process was of a very high quality.

V. N.

Having worked at Investigo for nearly 5 years, I can confidently state it is by far the best company I've worked in. A wonderful environment working with professionals with the opportunity to constantly learn and grow but also a humane company constantly improving their employee wellbeing goals. Post pandemic world has made flexibility for all employees at Investigo THE norm and is only adding to our success. Highly recommend working for Investigo if such an opportunity comes knocking :)

Can only comment based on individual experience but my contact within the organisation was always very friendly and professionally,never pushy. Helped me secure interviews with well known organisations so no complaints.

Quick and smooth recruitment process during my last search for FE dev contract role. Thanks!

I’ve built a long term relationship with Joshi and Ben at Investigo and I believe they have a good understanding of their candidates and share appropriate opportunities, keeping your interests in mind.

M. B.

I've had a great service from Investigo, and particularly Edward, they have been responsive to issues and concerns and have kept me up to date during my placement. I've always felt that they had my best interests in mind so would highly recommend them. I'd say to keep up the good work and continue doing what you're doing.

R. L.

Always a pleasure dealing with Richard and the team at Investigo, whether they are assisting with a live role, or just having open dialogue around a market topic.

C.

I met Edward Dullaway just over a year ago after being recommended to him by a trusted friend. We had a brief discussion about my skills and aspirations. A month later he was talking to me about an exciting position matching my criteria. I've been in this position for a year and Edward has offered support throughout. I hope to continue working with Edward and Investigo in the future.

J. S.

Working with Investigo has been such a pleasurable experience! I cannot express how brilliant the entire process was from putting forward my CV to landing the job role! I want to give a special thanks to Gemma who has been an absolute gem during the entire process! From the initial phone call up until I was offered the position she helped me apply for, Gemma has supported me throughout the entire process making sure I was well prepared! On top of that, the whole recruitment process and landing a job role has been super quick and I couldn't have done it without Gemma! If you're working with Gemma, just know that you will have a rewarding experience!

S. R.

A professional setup with an impressive business model. Really enjoyed my time I spent with the team very engaging, and I look forward to working with them in the future

T. M.

Edward Dullaway was a useful and consistent source of quality interim candidates over the 12 months i was Interim CEO at Gen2 Property. He has continued to maintain contact on a regular basis, with a positive helpful approach and able to think creatively about how to address recruitment issues.

D. j.

Ed and Jana are always responsive and helpful. For me Investigo have performed better than other agencies I've worked with. Would recommend without reservation.

B. A.

David Taylor was very professional and supportive in helping me find a new position.

G. L.

Love this agency. Saskia got me a job on the day I arrived here. Very professional and onto it. Strongly recommended.

B. C.

I have worked with Investigo for some time now and they have never let me down. Excellent staff.

S. D.

They call you at their office pretending it is a preliminary interview, but then non-communication followed by realisation that probably they were just building their database.

A. K.

Have worked with Investigo on a number of occasions. Their service is second to none. Highly reccommend

B. W.

I have heard great things about these guys. Definitely worth a conversation with them if you are looking.

A. S.

Ed Dullaway has always been very helpful and easy to contact when needed

A. S.

Amazing recruitment agency! The support I have received throughout the recruitment process has always been hands down excellent both for contract and perm roles! A huge shout out to Richard Brook, Joe Redwood and Dean Gibb who have been a great help over the years!

P. H.

Fabulous company, found me my dream job.

T. M.

The place to go if you want to move on and up.

A. C.

My experience of this company has been through a recruiter called Gordon Levy, who first made contact via Linked In with a friendly message about a potential job. After a phone call, I had an interview arranged for am exciting opportunity and within 2 weeks of first being approached, I've been offered a fantastic role with a really great company. Gordon's dedication and passion shine through and should be commended. Great experience.

Investigo is one of the best recruitment agencies I have worked with. They always provide quick responses and share your details with other team members, to provide as many options as possible for you as a candidate. In particular, I have recently worked with Rob Huskisson who has been a pleasure to work with. He is friendly and always willing to help. Although I have decided to accept a job offer elsewhere, he has been really understanding about it, and has offered to keep in contact for future roles. I would also like to thank Jack Antoniades, who has been the only recruiter I have worked with to inform me about my unsuccessful application. In the past, I have only received successful news and nothing about my applications that have been rejected, but Jack has taken the time to provide feedback, despite my application being rejected. He also gave me a good mental boost, and encouraged me to apply for roles, which I didn't have the confidence to apply for in the past.

My experience with Investigo has been great. Very friendly from the beginning and engaged with the interview process. They have kept me informed at all times in the process. They have placed me numerous times in the last few years. Thanks Julian, David and look forward to working with Neil who I have known from my other assignment. Suresh

P. T.

Amazing business especially the consultants within Investigo. Fast and responsive and very informative. I had dealt with Julian within investigo and he had prepped me thoroughly before my interview with amazing professional advice to ensure I had the best chance in getting the position. I have used Investigo throughout my career as they focus on individual candidates rather than a numbers game in sending off CV’s. Highly recommend.

R. N.

Having worked with Investigo both as a candidate and a client, I have been consistently impressed with their service. Luke Colley spends the time upfront to understand the role requirements and the business culture, then matches them with candidates who have been thoughtfully researched and screened. Whenever I’m in the market for a new role or recruiting for my team, Investigo will always be my first call.
