We ultimately hired an individual who has so far had an exceptional impact on our business. Because of our experience on this occasion, we will certainly choose to work with Nigel Wright again. Highly recommended.”
Chief Executive, Café Nero

“I was impressed by the consultant’s resilience during this process, where converging issues made it difficult to source candidates, as well as to visit our site. They did make the trip eventually, though, which added to their understanding of our culture and helped them to attract some great candidates for the procurement manager and supply chain director roles.”
Global Head of Talent, BrewDog
