Customer Review

I would highly recommend Nigel James Associates, having worked with Lloyd extensively they deliver great candidates relevant to your vacancy brief.  Very proactive and great on communication.

Emma Sterland, Chief Financial Planning Director, Evelyn Partners

Customer Review

Lloyd and I have been working together for nearly four years now and have relatively recently shifted to working exclusively together on mid to senior level appointments. What I really like about Lloyd is that he never pushed exclusivity, instead choosing to put his energy into consistently delivering against whatever brief we put in front of him. As a result, over time we realised that exclusivity was a no brainer as no-one else was coming close to delivering the quality or breadth of candidates that Lloyd was able to present. An important aspect of this is Lloyd’s understanding of the nuances of our business and its culture, which allows him to seek and present candidates who are likely to have a fulfilling and long-term career with us. This makes the whole process incredibly efficient and effective for all parties. He’s also a straight-shooter and I’ve found him to be fair and reasonable even around the occasional tricky negotiation, in fact it’s those kinds of discussions that have created trust and goodwill on both sides and enabled the relationship to flourish. I expect Lloyd to be an invaluable partner in delivering recruitment aspects of an ambitious growth plan.

I have worked with Lloyd to fill a number of positions. I found him easy to work with. He listens and ensures that he fully understands exactly what we as the employer are looking for, not just in terms of technical ability of the candidate but also personality to ensure that they fit well with our business. This then allows him to provide high quality candidates and makes the whole process so much easier.

Customer Review

A good leader has the ability not only to talk, but also to listen and to understand even those things that are not said. Julie has this leadership trait.
She spoke with me only once; to find out what I was looking for in my next role. She put my CV forward to only one employer. She prepared me for the interview... and so many days after, I’ve landed the job! She is such an excellent example of how nice someone can be. Thanks Julie; for all your help.
