Mia - Excellent Experience

I had a great experience with Burman, it was Mia that contacted me regarding a role that am now currently working in and enjoying. She was very professional in keeping me informed throughout the entire recruitment process and made sure all of my questions were answered. I would highly recommend Burman as a recruitment agency.

Alaina was super good

Alaina was honest, responsive and made the candidate experience super smooth. Her manager was also amazing given that he had some pressing personal issues going on in the back too.

I have experience of dealing with…Grace and others

I have experience of dealing with Grace, Rigers and Alex. I have to say each are very personable. Grace is particularly engaged and supportive in ensuring candidate needs are met. It is great that Burman treat candidates as people, individuals with aspirations and needs. They proactively remain in touch whilst you are in the employment market and that can't be said of all recruitment consultants.

Outstanding

From the first point of contact through to securing the role, Mia was there every step of the way. She was professional, driven towards win/win outcomes, communicative, kind and a great cheer leader. Mia is a fantastic ambassador for her profession and a great agent to work with.

Thank you, Olivia - amazing!!

I cannot praise (or thank!) Olivia Davies enough for her absolutely stellar work. Liv reached out to me regarding a few positions in HE that matched my experience and made the process smooth and transparent from start to end. I told Liv what my criteria were, and she only returned vacancies in line with what I was looking for - and now with her help, I've secured the biggest leap in my career to date. If you work in HE and are interested in a change, absolutely reach out. Thank you again!

Worked with Burman for a while and I have found them so professional , efficient and very approachable.
I have had a lot of dealings with Ellie Of late who has been exceptional in managing my contracts. Ellie has continually marketed me to other clients whilst also working to secure me extensions.

Rare - an Agent that actually cares.

Burman have a great on-boarding process, clear and easy to understand.
Harry Attwell was professional and clear, he represented me well with the client and was always responsive to my requests, emails or calls.
I have already recommended Harry and would have no hesitation working with him again.

Great experience with Burman

My experience with Burman has been excellent. Jonathan, Ellie and Brad are the best. I worked with Jonathan when he was recruiting for a permanent role and the service received was outstanding from assisting with preparation, providing all necessary information to making sure the role was a fit for both parties. On the contracting side now, I've worked with Ellie and Brad, and they are just as outstanding as Jonathan. Ellie recruited for a contract role which was my first and left no question of mine unanswered, reassuring me at times and provided so much information on the process, ensuring all went smoothly. In the role, she always checks in to make sure it's going as expected or better and provides opportunities for future contracts should they be of interest to me now or later.

On the rare occasion that Ellie has taken any well deserved annual leave, Brad has stepped in to cover and the level of service does not falter.
I highly recommend Burman and more specifically Jonathan for those on the permanent side and Ellie or Brad for those looking for contract roles in IT.

I have only recently decided to start contracting and Burman was recommended to me. Ellie is amazing, she has helped guide me through setting up as a limited company as well as getting me my first contract, in record time. I start work on Monday and thanks to all the hard work and reassurances from Ellie, I am looking forward to my career as a contractor.
