Testimonials

Discovered by Andy on LinkedIn

I was in the lucky situation to be "discovered" by Andy on LinkedIn. Andy is fantastic to work with. He not only possesses a great insight into his clients' businesses and requirements, he is also a great judge of character and has a really good feeling of whether a potential candidate would be a good fit for a company. He keeps both parties’ interests in mind and helps to support very fruitful collaborations. I can strongly recommend Andy to both, companies looking to fill a vacancy, and people looking for new opportunities.

Lewis Aulton, Recruiter Extraordinaire

It is with the utmost pleasure that I can recommend Lewis Aulton. He was highly professional and expedient in handling all the details involved in negotiating a VP level position. He rapidly communicated developments and kept things moving in a positive way. The speed at which we completed the process was surprising. It was less than a month from when I first met Lewis to receiving a more than satisfactory written job offer. In my over 30 year career, he stands head and shoulders above any other recruiters that I have met. Having been on both sides of the interactions, I have encountered many quasi-professionals in the recruitment profession - people that don't communicate, don't follow through and don't keep appointments. Lewis is not like these people at all, he is a consummate professional and conducts himself accordingly. He would be a true asset to anyone looking to either find or fill a position. I personally found him to be a joy to work with, a shining beacon in a sea of mediocrity. He is a rising superstar in the recruitment industry.

Working with Hannah was great!

Working with Hannah was great! Hannah was very knowledgeable about the industry and always brought great candidates forward. She kept me in the loop at all times and I was impressed with the caliber of candidates and responsiveness. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a candidate in the food/bev/ingredient industry or for a candidate looking for a role. They really do their homework!
