'I have been privileged to work with Jon since 1995. It was at that time that Jon placed me in my first Management position. I have used Jon's services a number of times since then and was delighted to finally meet him this year when he endorsed my current position as Head of recruitment for a National Mortgage and Protection Specialist. I have found Jon to be one of the most knowledgable people in our industry. His integrity is second to none and he always strives to ensure that both the employer and the applicant are a good fit for each other. He is a very straight talking person and as such I could call him an honoury "Northener", but I won't because of his accent.If you are an employer or a candidate you will always find that Jon will give you a first class service and perhaps that is why people come back to use his services time and time again. From first using Jon as a candidate and now using him as an employer if you follow my recommendation in using Jon you will never have any regrets.'

Jon sourced me the role at Aldermore and aside from being particuarly pleased as it was exactly what I was looking for, I found him to stand out from the other recruiters I dealt with in terms of being honest, calling when he had promised, unfortunately not many seem to manage this More importantly the main differentiator was his genuine knowledge and experience of the financial services sector - again not many seem to grasp this so he really stood out to me and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, and have already recommedned him directly to several friends - thanks Jon

Whilst unemployed I talked to many recruitment consultants but Jon was one of the better ones. Jon is incredibly professional, very thorough and helpful. He always contacts when he says he will and I have enjoyed talking with Jon over the past few weeks. I would not hesitate to recommend or use again.

I first used Jon over 10 years ago to get my first job in Financial Services. Over the past 10 years, I have lost count of the number of times he has helped with searches for new positions or even just advice on my next steps. He is always honest (sometimes tells you what you dont want to hear), but invariably he is right. I would and don't hesitate in recommending to Jon to friends, family, colleagues & business associates. He is wise & probably one of the most knowledgeable people I know in the industry.

Jon’s attention to detail in learning what his client is looking for and understanding what they actually need is highly commendable. His briefs and debriefs are very thorough, comprehensive and most useful. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Jon was fantastic helping me transition from one company to another helping me to progress in my career. Jon provided realistic expectations and provided clarity when it was required.

I would strongly recommend using his services.

My experience of working with Jon was exceptional.I was placed at a very interesting role. Jon was happy to help and advise me and although I was in a stressful situation he encouraged me throughout the whole process. He identified how good fit I was for the position.I would recommend Jon to anyone looking for a new role.

Jon was responsible for getting we re-employed with Countrywide Mortgage Service even after a very controversial start.

I found Jon to be intuitive and personable with a great understanding of both the Recruitment and Financial Services industries. Jon made my move back into Financial Services after a long break an easy transition as he read my needs perfectly.

Jon helped me to find my perfect position at JBR Capital, and I can't thank him enough. Not only is Jon's industry knowledge 2nd to none, he handled my on boarding with complete professionalism and care. Thanks my friend !

"John offers a very personal placement service by understanding the individuals needs and matching both parties appropriately. He is very thorough in his communication and meticulous at each stage of the journey. A true gent who takes a lot of time and care in the placement of his candidates. If my circumstances changed I would not hesitate to use John again or recommend him to anyone looking for a role in financial services."

Jon helped me with superb follow up when placing me with Slater Hogg. His advice and expertise greatly assisted me in securing what has turned out to be an excellant postion over the last 5 years.

Jon was very helpful from the start of the process. Gave me lots upfront information to help me decide if the job was right that for me. Always there to answer any questions or concerns I had. Very knowledgeable about his industry and the current state of the industry.

'I would highly recommend Jon as a person of integrity and honesty with excellent connections.'

Jon is a professional who always does hat he says he is going to do! In addition, he takes care to find out about you as a person so that he can place you in the correct environment. Jon is also a qualified NLP practitioner and every time you get off the phone from speaking to Jon, somehow, you always feel good about things!

I would highly recommend Jon. He is very professional and always keeping me up to date. Very honest and full of knowledge of the industry.

The time and attention Jon provides to find the right role is second to none. He's a quality recruiter and his efforts continue until you are completely settled in your new role. Jon's professional but personable approach helps to make the job searching process as smooth as it should be. It's been a pleasure working with Jon on more than one occasion in my career.
