“Professional, excellent listeners and understand the exact needs of their customers. The Cedar team always go the extra mile and provide solid consultative advice. These are just a few reasons that I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar when looking for procurement talent or indeed for anyone looking to progress their own career.”

“Cedar is a very customer focused, reliable and professional partner when it comes to sourcing talent. I’ve worked with them on a number of roles at GU and they demonstrated not only their speed of response but also the ability to present true talent.

They are quick to understand the needs of the client and marry this up with a deep knowledge of the finance talent pool.

I liked them and their grounded approach to the business.  They develop long term relationships based on trust and performance. I’ve have already recommended them as a very professional firm.”

“I have been working with Cedar over the last ten months, firstly as a candidate from Dubai looking to relocate back to the UK and then as a customer looking to bring on high caliber team members. Cedar looks after the best interests of their candidates and customers and have been very supportive. The candidates put forward have filled both permanent and temporary roles.”

“We instructed Cedar to help us with the appointment of an Interim Group Corporate Finance Manager. They quickly understood our brief and set to work sending us CVs for five high calibre individuals. We conducted three interviews from this shortlist and subsequently offered the role to an excellent candidate. The entire process was completed in just five days. We were extremely impressed not only with the quality of the candidates but the speed at which they could be provided. I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar’s interim practice.”

“Having worked with a number of recruiters finding Cedar was a real delight. Their attention to detail, ensuring that the client and candidate are a perfect fit, is second to none, and they were in regular contact throughout the whole process. Follow-ups pre and post-joining the new business were invaluable.”

“Due to Generator Group’s continued success and future growth plans, I engaged Cedar to support us with the recruitment of an Interim Procurement Transformation specialist. I was impressed with their understanding of what Generator, as a group, were looking to achieve and valued their advice and guidance on the skill-set required to transform procurement within our business internationally. Cedar is well networked within their niche and quickly provided a shortlist of  senior candidates with deep knowledge of our market which we subsequently hired from. I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar.”
