The quality of candidates was exceptional, the search absolutely reaped dividends. We were genuinely spoilt for choice and had several appointable people. The process was smooth, professional and incredibly thorough, and the way Lauren understood our organisation, our values and the kind of leader we needed made a real difference. This was an important role for us, and we’re delighted with the outcome. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner.

Ellie and Anna were such great support when recruiting for our Public Affairs & Advocacy Officer. I simply didn't have time to do all of the legwork, but really needed to find a high quality candidate; after a few calls with the team, I had such a great selection of candidates to choose from. The worst part was that everyone I interviewed was so wonderful, I found it incredibly hard to choose one person for the role. My sense from all of the candidates was that they really found Ellie and Anna to be kind, supportive, and approachable. I got the sense that they really understood who the candidates were, and what they were looking for in the role (which did ultimately help when making my final decision). I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you to you both!

Murray Mcintosh have been incredibly helpful in delivering a successful candidate for a challenging role at BEAMA. As a small organisation we don’t often lean on agency support and in the past this hasn’t helped us. But we found the right recruitment agent who help recruit fantastic candidates for a specialist role in the energy sector. In a competitive employment market their help has been so valuable and we are so pleased with the result. All candidates they shortlisted we incredibly impressive and we weren’t expecting to be faced with such a hard decision. Huge thanks to the team and we look forward to working with you again.

Principal Systems Engineer at JCB

Chris’ first-hand experience of working as an engineer and being educated to degree level in mechanical engineering undoubtedly allowed him to understand the requirements of the engineering roles at JCB. This pace of recruitment support is greatly appreciated and allowed the recruitment project to process at speed and with the correct messaging. This was a critical time for JCB and the need to supply a high volume of quality candidates was pivotal to our project’s success. Chris was diligent and focused and was in constant communication with us to ensure the process ran as smoothly as possible. Additionally, he shared a range of relevant market feedback that allowed us to refine and improve our process/search. Having produced results efficiently and accurately, I had no hesitation in recommending Chris and Murray McIntosh to other areas of the business that were experiencing similar. Chris has continued to support us even though some of the roles we initially briefed him on have been to converted to permanent from contract roles. He has shown real value as a recruitment supplier in being flexible, understanding and delivering in any areas we offer him.

I cannot recommend Anna and Murray McIntosh enough! I came into contact with Murray Mcintosh as a job vacancy I was interested in was being managed by them. Despite this, they took an interest in my whole career and how they could help me develop it. I was allocated to Anna Kelly who was amazing from day one. She explained every step of the way to me concisely and clearly. There was not one moment when I felt confused about the next steps or what to expect. Anna and her colleague Lauren even went the extra mile, helping me out with technical hitches which made me 20 minutes late for my first interview! In addition to guiding me through the interview process, in terms of admin but also offering to practice likely questions, Anna listened intently to everything about me. She helped me identify my strengths and how I could apply them to this role but never pressured me at any point to accept the next stage of the interview. She clearly wanted me to be comfortable with any new job and I really do feel that she would have been honest with me if this particular role was not right for me. I’ve not worked with a recruitment agency before who invested so much time in getting to really understand client. Having Anna involved in this process made the whole experience so much easier. No potentially awkward conversations with a future employer about salary expectations, aspects of the role that you may not thrive in as much as others etc… Even now that I’ve secured the job Anna checks in occasionally to see how my notice period is going and if I have everything I need for the new role. I cannot recommend Anna and Murray McIntosh enough! Professional, polite and friendly with timely and concise communications. Thank you Anna!

I must say that over the past 40yrs of working at some of this countries biggest and most prestigious projects (and industry) I have in all of those years had many agencies working to get me the right position and if that position didn’t work out they ran for the hills!! A unique situation to put someone in so trust has to be defining, but now to the agency recruitment specialist Murray McIntosh, after being let down and leaving a position early even though it was supposed to be long term, the team kept the pressure on and said they would do their best. 3-4 months later I am now working for that same company in a better position! They are absolutely outstanding in attention to detail and never giving up on the values all recruitment specialists should aspire to be like. Murray McIntosh are a credit to the profession and I can’t them enough for giving me the opportunities they had promised and come through with. Bravo!!
