I am delighted to be able to provide this reference on behalf of Zak Malinsky and the team at Davies.
During December 2021, within a very compressed deadline, Davies were contracted by L&C to provide 6 complaint contractors to support us in working through our outstanding case load. I can not endorse them highly enough, for their speed and efficiency in sourcing the support required, the high calibre of individuals presented for selection and how smooth the process was to put them in place. Over the following 6 months whilst the contractors worked with our in house team, we were continually supported by Zak via open lines of communication and review, allowing us to complete our project in good time and budget.
L&C Mortgages
The challenge was considerable, given the short time-period available, the vast number of records to successfully migrate and the potential harm to policyholders that could have occurred as a result of a prolonged period of disruption.
Together we created new processes and had to embed new staff for MTAs, MID updates and NCDs. Given the workload, Christmas/New Year period and the ongoing impact of the pandemic, the Davies Team pulled off a significant accomplishment.
The positive outcome for policyholders and Faraday should not be under-estimated. We are truly grateful for their dedication, skill, and hard work. This accomplishment could not have been achieved by many others.
Faraday COO
Mandeep was fantastic in helping to secure a new role, going above and beyond with her support to ensure I was fully prepared for the role I was going for. She took the time to understand my skill sets, understood in detail the requirements of the role she was proposing, before working closely with myself to perfectly prepare for the interview. Her communication skills are excellent and she calls when she says she will, an often underappreciated trait. All in all I had a fantastic experience with Mandeep and would highly recommend anyone looking to take further steps in their careers to reach out and gain her support. Many thanks Mandeep.
Jess is an excellent recruiter who has a wealth of market knowledge, she combines a strategic outlook with pragmatism to ensure recruitment is always a success. Having worked on a number of campaigns together I was impressed by her stakeholder management and overall contribution to the recruitment strategy.
I’ve been both a candidate and a recruiting client with Davies and can recommend them wholeheartedly. As a client, they just helped us fill a new marketing role where we had some quite specialist requirements. They took the time to understand our needs and adapted based on our feedback on the initial set of CVs. We got a strong shortlist of candidates, and were in the nice situation of having a difficult choice in the end. We secured a great hire, and I would gladly use Davies again.
General Manager Marketing at Firstsource
I have recently worked with Davies whilst they were supporting me to secure a new job role. They have been fantastic and very proactive, kept regular contact and updates throughout which made the whole process straightforward and personal. I could not have asked for better support and guidance and would highly recommend anyone looking to secure a new role to reach out to Davies.
Training & Quality Manager
I had the fortune of being contacted by Davies and Brian about a new project. I am so grateful for the continued support and follow up I received from the team to make sure I had everything I needed to succeed in this project. Davies always has a plan B and provides support and goes the extra mile.
Philip Morris International
Throughout the recruitment process Brian was patient and professional, keeping me up to date with any updates and developments. He understood my needs and was able to ensure the process was smooth for both me and my future employer. I have now started in my new role and am grateful for the support and guidance over the last few months.
Global Operations Manager
I am delighted to be able to say that my experience has been exceptional. Having dealt with recruitment consultants in the past, I was not expecting the level of commitment I received from Richard. I never felt like “just another candidate”, he was genuinely passionate, professional and direct.
Candidate
I have worked with Davies on several occasions and found them to be outstanding. I have no hesitation in trusting them across the full process of recruitment. From early discussions during initial formulation of the role and its price point; to identifying candidates and ultimately their engagement, the team has been great providing quality candidates that not only look good on paper but shine both technically and on team fit.
