testimonials

"I have now worked with Tim Green over several years both as a candidate and a client. His boundless energy and enthusiasm for the job in hand has never ceased to amaze me and makes him a pleasure to work with. It is rare to find an exceptional recruitment consultant who is so keen to do their best for the business (and the candidate) and who takes the time to understand the firm and its culture. I have been delighted with the high calibre of candidates put forward and always rate his continued help and advice that his wealth of experience can bring to all recruitment issues."

Andrew Childs, Vice President, Director of Finance, HOK International Ltd


"Tim at Penfold’s has helped me find my last two roles, one in London and one overseas. He is very professional and has always acted in my best interests. I would certainly recommend Penfold’s to friends and colleagues who are looking for their next career opportunity."

Suzanne Maloney


"I have worked with the principals behind Penfolds Consultancy for over 10 years. I have found their approach to recruitment to be refreshingly low key - no hard sell, no random CVs from completely unsuitable candidates, no unsolicited phone calls . They take the time to understand your finance department, the dynamics of your existing team and they understand that it's the personality as much as technical ability that matters. Every candidate they have placed with me has worked out so that says it all really!"

Gerard Brosnan, Finance Director GI Partners Ltd

 

"I am writing to express my thanks and appreciation of the recruitment of permanent accounting personnel that I have received from Brendan Marrable at Penfolds Consultancy. Brendan took the time to come to our offices to meet us and this has enabled him to gain a very good understanding of our culture and what we look for in an employee. This means that we always interview a very good standard of candidate from Penfolds and the hardest part of the process has been choosing which candidate to take!
I would have no hesitation in recommending Penfolds to any company thinking of using their services."

Craig Matheson, Commercial Director Lend Lease Europe Ltd

 

"Unlike other agencies I spoke to, Penfolds actually listened to what I was saying I wanted and where I wanted to go with my career, rather than throwing lots of unsuitable roles at me and hoping one of them would stick. Penfolds suggested a role in Abu Dhabi which suited me exactly and supported me while I was going for the role. I am now waiting for the contract to arrive from my new employer."

John Leighton, Candidate

 

If you’re a finance professional and have an interest in the property world then Penfolds Consultancy are the people to take you further. They have a great client base, a very personal touch and have the unique ability to understand the needs of both parties.

Paul Lorimer-Wing, Candidate

 

“What I have always liked about the way Tim works is that he makes sure he understands what I want and produces great short lists of people, pretty much all of whom could do the job. This means my time is not wasted and I have a good group to choose from meaning I can focus on who is the best personality and culture fit for the business. Tim also doesn’t mislead me like most recruiters. So far I’ve been pleased with all you supplied.”

Richard Jones, Group Finance Director Helios Properties Plc

 

“I was introduced to Penfolds by a friend, who said that I would like their approach. He was right. Nick Buick visited the office, and was an important first step. I felt that he really understood our business requirements and more importantly that the dynamics of personalities was crucial to me. His approach was very personal and very flexible. The candidates were extremely well briefed and very prepared. I truly feel that I have built an invaluable business relationship for the future. I will unreservedly recommend Penfolds to any business associate, and indeed, will leave future recruitment in their very capable hands.”

Kamla Gardner, Finance Director Universal Consolidated Group Ltd

 

“Our Finance team has grown considerably over the last two years and during this time Penfolds Consultancy Ltd have helped us with both contract and permanent placements.
They have worked closely with us to ensure they understand our specific requirements, which has resulted in them providing a consistent quality of candidates who are well suited to our business.
They are also honest enough to tell us if they don’t have the appropriate candidates for a specific role, a refreshing change when dealing with recruitment firms.
We are happy to retain Penfolds Consultancy Ltd as one of our preferred recruitment providers.”

Tim Wood, Finance Director Cambian Group

 

"Penfolds provided us with a prompt, personal and professional service which was targeted on a selective number of CVs that matched our specifications and job description. This makes the recruitment process so much easier to manage. We have had no hesitation in using them on a subsequent assignment."
