Testimonials
Steven Connellan
Director of Financial Control, RAC
Duncan really homes in on the required skillset of the sought individual and very successful in identifying candidates who can meet your needs who generally do not have CV’s with anybody else in the market. Great to work with.
Derek Starling
CEO and CFO with strong International background and successful turnaround experience
As a long established Interim Finance Professional, I found his interviewing technique extremely stimulating and inspirational. He has great business ambition and focus and I am certain his undoubted expertise in matching the right Interim to the right Client will ensure continuing success and growth for his business.
Brian Corrway Turnaround
CFO
I gained my first role as an interim through Rob as far back as 2001 and have continued to work with him over the years. Rob builds long term relationships with both his clients and candidates and seeks to match personalities as well as skillsets. He is good at maintaining communication between clients and candidates and is always well briefed on the role he is recruiting for. Rob is honest and to the point. He is my first call for advice on the interim market, trends, rates etc. I’d be happy to recommend him and look forward to working with him again in the future.
Mark Hendy
Interim CFO
I first met Rob in the late 1990’s and have been both placed by his company and used his company for my own recruitment needs. Rob is one of the most proactive practitioners of his craft that I deal with, who takes time and goes the extra mile to understand his clients, his candidates and his market.
