TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials

''Working with STOIX has been great. They took the time to understand the very different vacant roles within our business and ended up recommending different solutions as appropriate. STOIX are clearly long-term relationship builders, demonstrated by the post placement follow ups among many other things. The transparency of the terms of placement has been refreshing and it is for these reasons plus many more that we wholeheartedly look forward to working with STOIX again.''

CFO of PE Backed Retailer

“Above and beyond the provision of high-quality candidates and having a detailed understanding of our needs, his work was much more that of a business partner than a typical supplier. Taking the time to come and meet me and to understand our work culture/environment, working flexibly to suit our ever-changing needs, providing market insight and dropping the sales chat at the door, he is an excellent resource to have had on the occasions we have needed help externally. I also have full confidence that Neil is doing what he can to help secure the best talent for us, whilst being completely transparent throughout the process.”

Global HR Business Partner – FTSE 250

“Neil is always completely honest about how he feels his candidates may/may not fit in to our business. Perhaps most importantly, any candidates we meet are always fully briefed about both our business and the role they have applied for. It is clear to me, that Neil has not mis-sold them anything and has been as honest with his candidates as he is to us as the client. At times, Neil will really push back on candidates if he feels they are a good fit for the business. He has a positive and proactive approach and can be relied upon to deliver quality candidates.”

Head of HR – PE Backed International Business

“Neil is a consummate professional and not your archetypal finance recruiter. I've experienced honesty and transparency with Neil and he has demonstrated fantastic negotiation skills; and certainly in my case, genuinely looked after my interests.”

Managing Director, Private Fitness Business

“Neil is a very strong recruitment agent who takes time to understand your business and the type of candidate that works well in your organisation. Neil is very good at shortlisting good quality candidates for each individual role and has a high success rate at placing candidates for the role. I always found with Neil it was quality of candidates carefully selected over quantity.”

Experienced Group CFO – Various FTSE 250 PLCs

“I have worked with Rory since 2008 as both a candidate and as a recruiter and would highly recommend him. His approach is focused on quality and understanding the needs of his clients and candidates alike.”

Group Finance Director, UK PLC

Case Study

We retained STOIX after an internal recommendation to source a high calibre, Head of Finance in what is a truly pivotal and newly created role in the business, supporting the high-profile requirements of a plc environment. Our previous hiring process for a similar key position took over 12 months and was extremely challenging. Time was of the essence with the current incumbent leaving the business imminently, but quality could not be sacrificed.
