“We first tried Cedar when we needed a high quality candidate, fast. They didn’t disappoint, and unlike many other agencies we had tried, provided us a highly credible shortlist of suitable candidates. We could have filled the role several times over. Since then, Cedar hasn’t disappointed and each time we’ve needed to add to the team, Cedar have delivered credible candidates. They seem to know the candidates they represent well, and they have handled each of our engagements with swift efficiency, which has taken the pain out of recruiting for senior candidates. Happily recommend Cedar to anyone who doesn’t enjoy the recruitment process.”

“The team was able to step in immediately, fully understanding the brief and our culture, and within a week had provided a number of very strong candidates. Within 2 weeks we had concluded the process and recruited the perfect person for this role, with all expectations exceeded, for this crucial time-critical role.”

“I have used Cedar over the past ten years as both a client and then a candidate. They are always my first call as nine times out of ten they will come out on top. They seem to really understand the roles they are recruiting for and the candidates they have, which not only gets a great result, but often means they do it with the fewest potential candidates saving everyone’s time.”

“Cedar were incredibly responsive and took the time to understand our needs. Their advice was sound and the candidates high quality. Within 2 weeks of contacting Cedar, we had a Head of Finance in post who we are very pleased with. I’d thoroughly recommend them.”

“We worked with Cedar on a challenging position that other recruiters had struggled to fill. They quickly understood the brief and sourced high quality candidates. We are very pleased with the process and outcome.”

“Cedar’s recruitment service is impeccable. Whenever we request candidates, the Cedar team go through all the CVs available to them and only send me relevant candidate profiles for the role. This saves me infinite amounts of time as I never have to review a CV or interview a candidate who is unsuitable for the role. The team are always on hand to give advice and give regular updates on developments with candidates – even when they are out of the office or on leave! The standard of the people they provide is extremely high and 99% of the time we recruit the candidate Cedar puts forward.”

“We commissioned Cedar to fill a challenging Senior Strategy Manager role which required a very specific set of competencies. Cedar not only provided a fast and efficient service but were a pleasure to work with, responsive and accommodating of our recruitment timescales. They identified relevant individuals in a highly  professional manner and constantly demonstrated a clear commitment to succeed. I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar and will be working with then again in the future.”
