Reviews of Spear Recruitment Ltd

l. p.

I am exceptionally pleased and very happy with the service I have received from Spear recruitment. Within one week of them receiving my CV I had been recommended for an interview and was offered the post! Marcia and Ben worked meticulously in every aspect of my job application and the moral support they gave me was outstanding! I have never experienced this level of commitment and care from an employment agency. I highly recommend Spear recruitment and would not hesitate to use them again if ever necessary. I sincerely wish them all the best!

Wonderful experience working with Spear Recruitment. Luke Boddington was brilliant in getting my new position for me and was thoroughly professional and was always willing to go the extra mile offering advice and answering any queries I had. Just over two months into my new role and loving it so far. I can't thank and recommend Spear Recruitment enough.

D. H.

I would highly recommend Spear Recruitment Ltd. Charlotte Roscoe was very friendly & helpful. She kept in regular contact with me (which is far more than I can say for the majority of recruitment agencies I have used in the past!), and put in real effort to find me a position - the company she placed me with wasn't even looking! She is a real credit to Spear Recruitment and I would encourage anyone looking for work in finance or accountancy to contact Charlotte Roscoe, I really can't thank her enough for helping me to find my dream job!

A. G.

Charlotte was a fantastic recruiter who really listened to what I wanted in a role and found the perfect match. Within a week I had been given multiple interviews at great places and had found the ideal job for me in 7 days. Couldn't ask for more, would highly recommend!

M. N.

This company has a real passion and drive to get you back on track. Both Edd and Darren have been super helpful and professional with finding me my new job. I had left my old job unexpectedly, thanks to these guys i had a new job lined up on the same day. i had interviews coming out my ears. This the only place i would recommend if you are looking for a job ! Thank you again for everything you and your team of experts have done for me. Kind regards Mike Allen

J. W.

I've dealt with Spear twice in my career and both times I have found them to be exceptional. Darren has worked hard to develop a business that hasn't strayed from the personable and professional approach that he had with me many years ago. I highly recommend the team, have spoken with and dealt with a number of them. Don't hesitate if you are thinking of using them as a business or an individual. Keep up the good work!

Y. X.

Firstly, these guys were absolutely brilliant. They lived up to all expectations and have provided me with the next step to progressing my career within the motor trade. I very much look forward to my new position at Mercedes-Benz and thank Spear Recruitment for providing me with the opportunity. A huge thank you to Charlie Grant, an absolute diamond within Spear and a brilliant asset to the company. Thank you once again!

J. R.

Charlotte helped me throughout my process of finding a job to having offered one. This was my first time finding a job through a recruitment agency and the process couldn't of been more smoother. Charlotte was very informative, helpful and really friendly, she was never intrusive or full on, like other agencies who approached me. A very recommendable agency. :)

H. S.

Joe was great from start to finish and I'm very grateful to him for his help getting my job! He kept me updated on the progress of my application regularly and was really friendly constantly. I would 100% recommend Spear to a friend as the process offers a lot more than most recruitment agencies which support you. 10/10 would use again!

R. A.

I am exceptionally pleased and very happy with the service I have received from Sean Berryman at Spear recruitment. Within a week of receiving my CV I had been recommended for an interview and was offered the Role! Sean has worked meticulously in every aspect of my job application and the moral support He gave me was outstanding! I have never experienced this level of commitment and care from an employment agency or any recruiter. I highly recommend Sean Berryman of Spear recruitment and would not hesitate to use Him again if ever necessary. I sincerely wish him all the best and too keep up his exceptional work!

A. N.

Annie helped me secure a permanent role after being self employed working as a contractor for many years. She kept me in the loop throughout the whole process and helped coach me for my interview. Once I secured the role Annie went above and beyond by helping negotiate a great package which I did not expect to receive. She was a fantastic negotiator and advisor. I am extremely happy with the service Annie provided me from start to finish and feel very lucky that she contacted me about the role by sourcing my cv from job boards. Thank you Annie!

A. G.

If you want someone on your side that will work with commitment, professionalism and real effort then call Spear and ask for Dan. He does what he says he will do, he keeps you informed daily with updates and doesn't give up on you. I used various agencies recently when job hunting but Spear & Dan in particular really stood out whilst others promised but then did nothing. I genuinely cant speak highly enough with regard to the service I have received from Dan. Excellent from start to job offer.

M. H.

Couldn't recommend enough. After deciding I had to start looking for a new job due to risk of redundancy I saw what I believe is my perfect job being advertised so of course I had to apply. I sent my CV in the evening and by 9am the following morning I had already received a call from Annie Welsh. After a discussion around my current circumstances and CV my details were then passed onto the company. The same day I heard back from Annie asking me when I was available for interview with them company. At this point she also congratulated me on getting invited for interview. That gave me the confidence to remember that I am good enough and it was already an achievement to get to that stage. The day of the interview Annie called me and sent me a lovely message wishing me luck. After my interview we spoke again and I passed my feedback to her. A few days later Annie called me to provide me with the feedback from the company - she said she'd read it out to me and I was then convinced that I was about to be read a rejection speech she then said "Hi Annie, as discussed we would like to make an offer of employment to Michelle". I absolutely loved how she done that, almost teasing me and what a feeling when you then realise it's not a rejection. Annie was lovely from the get go, very kind and helpful. Anyone who deals with her to assist with their job search is definately in the best hands.

A. J.

Laura was absolutely fantastic through the whole process of my securing my job. She knew the type of work culture and environment that would suit me, and my current role is so far the best job I have had. She was also very professional and understanding with a sincere desire to help. I would recommend her and the agency any time and any day

H. B.

I have been looking for a job in the property management industry for some time, looking for the right job is not easy when you are working full time. After many night scrolling through job sites attending interviews, phone interviews I was getting nowhere fast well fast enough to hand my notice in. I had a call from Luke Bodington who told me he had a role that I would be interested in, following a few phone calls between myself and Luke I had an interview for a role I have been looking for within a week. Following my interview I received a text message from Luke as promised requesting a call back as I was at work. Luke has been polite professional and consistent with everything he had to offer, today I am grateful that I am now looking forward to starting my new job knowing it’s the right job for me. Thank you Luke

J. D.

I have used spear twice over the last 5 years, the first time amongst other agencies, unfortunately it was a while before I discovered spear, and after countless calls with other agencies, Spear had me an interview leading to a job, after just a couple of weeks! In December they managed to secure me another job, again, within just a couple of weeks of my initial enquiry! Fast paced professional service, I dealt with Chris both times who was faultless and obviously has very good relationships with companies. Thank you Spear! See you next time :)

A. E.

I am extremely impressed with the service I received from Spear Recruitment!! Two days after I posted my CV I got a phone call from Charlie Allen. He asked me a few questions about me and the job I was interested in and he told me he will call me back to let me know if he had news for me. Four days later he got back to me with an interview, set me up with a date and so I got the job. But he didn't stop there, after I got the job he texted me to ask me how the interview went and if i was pleased with the job. I want to say a massive thank you and I definitely recommend Spear Recruitment!!!

J. F.

Ive worked really closely with Ben over the last couple of months finding a new role in the healthcare industry alongside working full time. Ben has been a valuable source in this search and has offered me support with making sure I have the right skills for the role and preparing me for interviews! I would highly recommend Spear Recruitment for anybody needing the support of a recruitment agency.

Fantastic from start to finish. Had several possible interviews lined up within days of speaking to them. I dealt with Charlotte who was always willing to go the extra mile when helping with organising interviews or seeing how they went by giving me a call after (even on the phone directing me to a place once). After I had found my new role, even helped with little things like getting documents over to the new job and keeping me updated as to where things were at. Couldn’t have asked for any more. Cheers Charlotte!

N. H.

Was told Friday that the company that i was meant to start for on Monday was closing in 30 days and i was loosing my job. Spoke to Darren and he passed my details to Ed who was on the phone within 30 mins of me speaking to Darren. Ed managed to secure me 2 interviews today (2 working days after) really pushed for the best offer for me and i have been offered a job this morning! I couldn’t thank these guys enough! 5* from me!! Thank you again!!

A. W.

After dealing with Charlotte I would definitely recommend Spear Recruitment to assist anyone in their job hunt. She was very professional and really easy to talk to. Thank you so much for all your help!

C. R.

David has been the best recruitment agent i have dealt with for a while, he was very professional throughout the whole experience and went above and beyond to help me secure my next role. Although my role wasn't secured through David he did get me out there and a number of interviews which turned into offers. If i do look to move in the future David will be my first point of call !

E. A.

Using Annie at Spear Recruitment has changed my opinion on Recruitment Agencies as a whole, they definitely seem like a Company who are interested in forming long term relationships with Employers, and not just interested in making a quick sale, placing the wrong candidates just to secure their fee! I was impressed with the level of attention our vacancy was given and how quickly we were able to find a suitable candidate! Thanks Annie!

P. B.

Ben Moses rang me bright and early on Monday morning after I had posted my CV on a vacancy on Sunday evening. By Wednesday my interview was scheduled and by Thursday afternoon Ben rang to offer me the job!!! He has been super helpful and attentive and I want to say a huge thank you for believing in me!!!!

h. s.

This company have been amazing in helping me find employment. Through out the job hunting process I spoke to the same gentleman each time; who was always willing to help with anything I needed. By far the best experience I've had with any recruitment company.

c. b.

I used spear at the end of last year, having accepted voluntary redundancy. Charlotte managed to find me a great job in a matter of weeks. Charlotte was brilliant throughout the whole process, ensuring I was kept informed, prepared and chasing for me. 5* service thoughout. Thanks Charlotte!

A. R.

Very skilled team and extremely professional group of people. Got me into 4 interviews in space of 10 days and helped me to get job offers from all of the employers I interviewed with. I highly recommend their assistance.

J. M.

Just wanted to say that we recently had a post to fill for a manager in an accountancy practice. We decided to use some recruitment agents to assist us with this process. Spear recruitment and in particular Laura Farmer was especially helpful in this process. Laura was very clear and efficient throughout and eventually found me the right candidate! Laura service by far outshone all the other competitors. Highly recommend to anyone.

M. z.

I cannot thank Liam enough! After him and his team reached out to me for help with my recruitment process they fully exceeded my expectations with their friendly approach and consistent results. They're very good at their job and I can't imagine any firm in their sector that could do better.

M. E.

I couldn't recommend them more. Honestly, If anyone could land you a job its these guys. After a phone conversation with Ben Moses, he was able to quickly secure a job interview. After putting in what was required from the interview, I was offered the position. All at a time where i desperately needed to change jobs. They made it happen. No time wasting. A review is the least i could do.

M. S.

Thanks to Ed for finding me a great position. Superb communication, no false promises, just quality service from an exemplary recruitment company. I have no hesitation in recommending Spear and the 5 stars are well desrved. Thanks again Ed.

k. f.

Spoke with Annie a couple of months ago when I was looking for a new role, she was so helpful and lovely to chat to. She answered all my queries and even spoke outside my working hours which helped me get the ball rolling quicker. I’m now in a job role which I love and work with a great team. Thank you Annie!

D. M.

This was my first dealing with Spear Recruitment and i cant thank Abbie enough for helping me secure my new position. Abbie is such a bubbly and professional character and clearly very good at her job. I would highly recommend using this company.

A. N.

Liam Nevitt's attention was excellent. Very quickly, clearly and most importantly, he is constantly attentive throughout the selection process. Thanks to his help, I have a good job. 100% recommended. Very good management in the recruitment process

M. R.

I dealt with Luke Bodington who was excellent. Called when he said he would call, emailed when he said he would email and always replied to any questions i had. Perfectly happy with the role he found for me and the service I recieved. Luke did all the leg work for me and this made the process so straight forward. Thanks Luke.

J. B.

Used Laura Farmer and Spear for the first time. Cannot find a fault with the service of Laura. Laura was clear and transparent in communications, gave me an honest appraisal of candidates, sent through relevant CV's, and most importantly provided CV's that were reflective of the candidate. I cannot thank Laura for making my staff recruitment so simple, quick and easy. Will definitely be returning when i am recruiting again.

R. M.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t really read any of the reviews before I dealt with the company (a consultant called Charlie). However, from start to finish this was a simple, excellent service and I really felt like they cared. Exceptional customer service!! Thank Charlie for helping me obtain my new career, in an an amazing environment and with a great company...

K. S.

I found Ben just when I was considering a complete career change. Ben was amazing in helping rebuild my confidence and reminding me why I work in the heath care profession. He offered so much more than recruitment support. I have now been offered a new position and I literally could not have done that without his help, guidance and encouragement!

My experience with Spear recruitment has been terrific!! Many thanks to Dan from Spear recruitment I've finally found the job I was looking for. Couldn't be anymore happier with his service.

L. S.

Ben Moses has been fantastic, called me this morning with details of a job, arranged an interview the same afternoon and I've been offered the job all in the space of a day. Great service and highly recommended. Thank you Ben 👍🏻

G. C.

This is the first time I have used Spear Recruitment to fill a vacancy in my accountancy practice. I dealt with Annie Welsh and found her to be pleasant, helpful and very efficient. I would happily recommend Annie if you are in the accountancy profession and looking to recruit

s. s.

I would highly recommend Spear recruitment to anyone! all the staff are friendly, professional and never let me down especially Jack Broomfield who I have been dealing with the whole way through, he has kept me updated at all times and found me a job where I can progress and get to where I want to be! Thank you Spear Recruitment!!!!

S. H.

A very positive pragmatic approach. Excellent communications lines and always open and responsive, keeping you in the loop and engaging. Many thanks to David at Spear Recruitment, great work.

L. R.

Jack Broomfield Review I have recently started my dream job thanks to Jack Broomfield, Jack has gone out of his way to make this possible by staying behind late to speak to me, coming early of lunch and guiding me along every step of the process. My previous role was in Recruitment, so I understand the level of focus and concentration he has put on a single application in a sea of candidates is very hard to do and shows that not only is he very good at his job but secondly deserves a very nice pay rise, wink wink. In conclusion, I couldn’t recommend Jack anymore and he has been a legend in my eyes.

A. M.

I dealt with Charlie in a search for a new job, the communication was top notch, was updated as soon as he had any news and I had new employment within 2 weeks! Highly recommended to anyone looking for anyone looking for employment 5* service all round!!

s. k.

Best day when Chan from Spear called me and mentioned the opportunity of a property accountant to me. From first day till I get my first ever field job support from Spear was amazing clear and always easy to contact. LONDON

n. d.

David at Spear has been extremely helpful in my job search; really listening to everything I explained to him and keeping me in mind for incredible opportunities which matched my requirements down to a T. Thank you for a great recruitment experience! :)

B. S.

I cannot recommend Laura enough! She was fantastic. I found her very helpful, and she really understood the job and the direction of the career I was in search for. This has been a great recruitment process.

O. M. O.

Laura was an absolute GEM! guided me through the whole interviewing process till I started my role. I'd advise anyone who wants a job in a really good firm to go to Spear Recruitment.

A. S.

I have nothing negative to say about the person who helped secure a job for me in a care agency. I didn't stay with the company due to reasons around unfair work practices which every carer has to deal with but not for me. I expect if I'm at work 40 hours a week that I am paid for 40 and not 30 as is the norm.

S. L.

Laura Farmer has been very helpful securing me a job that was different from my previous experience, which what I really needed. She has guided and helped me every step of the way to secure the job. Thanks a lot for your help! Really appreciate it.

C. I.

Spear Recruitment I cannot recommend enough. I was treated like a professional not just a number, Charllote really supported me with my job search. I found a great role thanks Charllote.

S. M.

I moved to a new area and spoke with Ed a couple of times and explained my situation, he listened carefully and understood my needs and what I wanted for my future. He got me an interview with West way and tried a couple of others but they didn’t sound that good and after ed understood my needs he thought this was the best option for me and I agreed and he got Me in and it was a match perfect. Thanks mate

H. H.

I just wanted to say how impressed I am with Ben Moses...excellent customer service skills, very helpful, goes out of his way to help you and a pleasure to speak with! You don’t often come across people like Ben, highly recommend! Keep up the fantastic work Ben :)

Charlotte, I want to thank you for providing me with excellent customer service. You are passionate about helping people to find new jobs and it is so evident that you love what you do. I love that you only carry the best, you do explain everything to me about new opportunities.

S. N.

I would like to thank Annie for all her efforts in securing me my ideal job. Annie kept regular contact with me from day one which was appreciated. I would highly recommend her. Thanks again Annie for all your efforts :)

T. C.

I dealt with Ben when I was looking for a new job. He chased, called me, provided me with info and gave me really good interviews tips for the future. I will be giving Ben a shout next time around.

L. G.

I cant thank spear recruitment enough. From first communication with them every step had been fantastic and thank you to Liam for helping me along the way. I couldn't have got the role without him.

A. H.

I could not recommend this company enough. They are not just a recruitment company that spam CV’S out. They offer a personal and professional working relationship that is second to none. Ed Hatt is a credit to the company, I have been dealing with him since 2014 and it has been a pleasure.

L. C.

i was dealt with by Chris Wray and everything about him i cannot complain. He constantly kept me up to date about what he has done and what the conversations were with different employers, he constantly rang the employers to get answers, he is very professional and will not let you down if you need a job. i cannot thank him enough for what he has done. Thank you Chris

A. H.

Fantastic service given by Charlie! Would highly recommend him if your looking for any job in the automotive. No questions asked if you need automotive job. Nice and relaxed way of getting a new job

L. R.

Superb professionalism from the start. Always delivered great results and more than willing to put your needs first. Whether you are need of the right person for the job, or the person that needs that role! Really friendly too, great team!

E. U. t. M.

I was contacted by Ben when he found my cv on a job site. He has been nothing but friendly, professional and attentive. With his help I have secured a job that I know I'm going to love!

J. C.

David was fantastic and kept me inform throughout the whole process. The fact that he met me in person made me feel more like a client than a number. Would recommend David to anyone.

P. P.

I have just landed a job through Sean Berryman at Spear Recruitment and I could not be more happy! Fantastic approachable and professional service and I would highly recommend anyone seeking employment to give them/him a try.

J. H.

Charlie Allan from the automotive sector worked above and beyond to find me a role in the automotive trade, an absolute asset to the company and with more representatives like Charlie, shows that spear recruitment really can do great things, give that man a raise!

R. V.

After speaking with Ed Hatt - my confidence in this business was instantly renewed in the space of around 2 minutes. I'm looking forward to working closely with these guys once again. Thanks again, Reece

A. R.

Laura is an amazing person to deal with and an absolutely ‘A’ class recruitment specialist who know her trade very well. If I want to describe about Laura that would be utterly brilliance.

A. B.

Immensely helpful service provided by Charlotte, found me a number of potential jobs very quickly and helped me work around a difficult schedule. I would recommend Spear recruitment to everyone.

Very professional, excellent service from Liam, first time I've used Spear Recruitment and am really happy, keep up the good work guys.
