Finlay James Reviews 

Great Experience with Emily! Hugely friendly and a massive help. Was a pleasure being placed in work with Emily and would definitely recommend to anyone!!

Emily Lewis was amazing! Not only was she so encouraging and transparent throughout the whole job search process, she also gave amazing interview prep and spent an hour on the phone with me the night before just going through the JD again and making sure I felt as prepared as possible. She was the first person I told when I was offered the job because she was so integral in it happening. Can't think of how you can have a better recruitment experience than with Emily

I’ve been lucky enough to find help at Finley James. Not only the company really goes the extra mile for their candidates but they make you believe in yourself like anybody else. I was mentored and guided through my job research journey by the amazing Emily Lewis, which she is the definition of REAL. A trait very hard to find in a competitive scenario as recruitment.
If you get to know her you can see the genuine love and passion she have when it comes to help people.
Truly inspired and accomplished.
Finley James is in my opinion something you don’t want to miss on.

It was a genuine pleasure to have Hollie Wells assist me with finding my new role.

We spoke literally every single day with any sort of update and advice on how to approach the interviews which was amazing..

My interactions with Finley James have been second to none. This is all possible through the vibrant outlook and approach by Holly Wells. Holly really takes the time to learn about the professional and personal sides of each candidate. If I am ever asked as to who I would recommend as a recruiter, Holly is at the top of that list.

Where i do start ? HHHmmm Holly Wells at Finlay James Manchester office has been outstanding almost like my imaginary wife,mentor and guidaince when it comes to looking for a new role as to the much insight,gurdance and patients she puts into this, since from day one when i was contacted by their team and Holly Wells took over my profile as she dealt with roles directly matching my experience and skills and ever since I have been consistently impressed with both Holly and Finlay James firstly from the complete profiled details and insight i get of an organisation and role (honestly think they can use this insight as a revenue stream) as the insight is second to know you can find of a company even from wiki or google and then Holly she gives me calls and update every day and second as to the process and applications she is working with which you rarely get this days, prepared me extremely well for interviews, been very patient with me & kept in constant contact.Having dealt with numerous agencies in the past and not had great experiences, they have restored my faith in agencies, making me feel like an individual rather than just another number

Nadya helped me in my job search, she supported me in my interview preparation process and took the time to review my presentation before my panels. I am impressed by her professionalism and dedication to her candidates. Thanks!

Worked with Gregory who provided me with a fantastic set of options. He worked very professionally and ensured that everything was timed, coordinated and executed to my highest expectations. Will definitely return to FJ for my job opportunities.

You don't change your job every day and you don't change it out of nowhere. There is always a combination of multiple factors, including the right people you meet. Nadya from FJ was one of those right persons who really made difference to me. The way she was taking care and accompanying me during the whole process gave me the right feeling and convinced me to make the right decision. Nadya was highly professional, reliable, responsive and very supportive. I would highly recommend her as a first-class professional in her field!

In an ever crowded recruitment market Holly is a breath of fresh air. She is full of energy and passion. She uses her people skills to make the painful process of finding a new role painless and enjoyable. I highly recommend her and she is an asset to FJ

Finlay James were a great help in my search. They were highly professional and organised and were able to get me involved with a number of great opportunities. My consultant Ben Stevenson was excellent and highly diligent and provided detailed prep and feedback throughout the entire process, more so than any consultant I've worked with previously. I had a great experience and would highly recommend.

Aaron was hands down one of the best recruiters that I have ever worked with.

He would always go the extra mile taking calls outside of working hours and making sure that every requirement of mine was adhered to.

Aaron was a pleasure to work with from day one and we established a great client/friend relationship.

FJ successfully placed me in my job as a Global Account Manager. I very much appreciate the collaboration with Kerry Sanderson. She was a good coach and helped me where she could. Thanks so much for this wonderful experience.

I had the pleasure of working with Aaron for a brief but successful period of time where he put me up for an amazing opportunity. I believe Aaron's success comes from his work ethic and his ability to deliver on promises. Aaron will listen to you and make sure you're fully prepped at all times. If you're working with him, you are in very safe and capable hands. I see Aaron as not only someone who will find me a job, but will be there throughout my career as a trusted advisor.

A committed professional!

Holly found me on LinkedIn and matched me with a very exciting opportunity; regrettably for me it didn't work out, but Holly was a shining star along the way. She kept in touch, was flexible, sent me great updates and helpful guides... would be more than happy to continue working with her in the future.

When speaking to Holly you can expect 100% commitment! She has recently "tracked" me down on LinkedIn, matched my skills to an exciting opportunity she was recruiting for and held my hand through each and every step within the recruitment process. Be prepared for timely follow up calls, prep emails, friendly chats to keep in touch and most of all - a recruiter that takes her job serious and gets it done whilst being personable and friendly instead of pushy and forceful!
Well done Holly, it was a pleasure to work with you and I see a bright future for your career! Keep up the excellent work!

Our company is not originally from the UK and found the London market for sales to be extremely competitive which is why we turned ourselves towards recruitment companies. From the first phone call, Gareth, our main contact at Finlay James, was asking all the right questions, strongly contrasting with the other agencies we had reached out to. The candidates presented by consultants, in our case mainly by Leigha, meet the requirements we listed. Finlay James consultants take the time to build relationships with candidates, they are responsive, they share and accept feedback and they are consistent in the way they present our company. We have concluded it makes more sense to deal exclusively with Finlay James in the UK for sales hires due to the quality of candidates and the quality of service and would strongly recommend any company to take a similar approach.

Working with Finlay James has been a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!

Isobel is a diligent recruiter who takes great pride in understanding your requirements and making sure each role is a perfect fit for both parties. She has an obvious passion for recruiting and her communication and career advice was first class. I have no hesitation in recommending her for anything recruitment related.
