Richard's Experience Summary

I always receive an excellent, professional service and great advice.

I have always been extremely happy with the service I have received from Nigel Wright, and in particular Richard Morgan. Richard has a fantastic understanding of the people on his books - employers and candidates - and takes the time to match specific requirements to specific skill sets and experiences. This directly led to a placement for me at a previous employer (Sevcon) and also reduces the amount of wasted time and frustration experienced when dealing with other consultants who contact me with countless inappropriate positions. I am familiar with all of the main players on the local financial recruitment scene and Nigel Wright are without question my number one. I hope this continues.

We initially approached three agencies to discuss a Finance Director vacancy at The Port of Blyth. It had been a long time since we had recruited at that level and we needed make sure we got the right person. We selected Nigel Wright because of its long-standing reputation and expertise. We were also impressed by the lead consultant's market knowledge and offer of an added-value approach. This was a challenging assignment. We needed an FD with a unique skill set as well as cultural affinity with the leadership team and ways of working here at the Port. Nigel Wright shortlisted six strong candidates who matched what we were looking for. The documentation submitted helped inform our own interview process. This was all done within a very tight schedule and demonstrated complete understanding of our business needs.

The contacts with you have all been professional, friendly and informative. The original call from Mark to discuss my application ensured that the role would likely suit both parties. The Teams interview with Mark and Richard was detailed and a real two way conversation. Richard telephoned after the first interview with your client to ascertain my feedback and ensure that I was comfortable with the role. Throughout, you have been interested in my thoughts and aspirations and have been able to provide full answers to questions that I have had about the role and your client.

I found Nigel Wright to be a very professional and approachable recruitment firm. I met with Richard Morgan who was extremely helpful around my search having moved up from London to the North-East area. His knowledge and advice regarding the area, functions and how they could help me were very good and informative.

Excellent informed, personal, and experienced advice, both on the role and organisation to ensure it married up to my career and professional expectations, whilst ensuring culture and fit with the team and I. Simply invaluable.
