What they’re saying about usSuccess stories from our valued candidates and clients
“Very supportive and grown-up environment Excellent training and progression routes available Inspiring and successful colleagues Very genuine and approachable CEO and Senior Leadership team Regular celebrated employee success Hybrid working model Continued company growth.”
“I had the pleasure of being supported by Cedar across all levels of Finance recruitment from part qualified through to senior hires. At all the stages of the process, it was clear they had a fundamental understanding of the calibre of individuals we were after as well as working together with us to give useful insight and market knowledge. This allowed us to be competitive in market place when it came to top talent. I was impressed with the knowledge of the business they had and the strong relationship they had built with key stakeholders. They gave me the confidence t that they could inform and advise the business without my intervention. I would highly recommend Cedar and look forward to work again with them in the future.”
“We have worked with Cedar now on a number of roles and have found the service in terms of regular contact, and quality of candidates to be of a very high standard. I was impressed with the time they took to understand our recruitment requirements and they found a candidate that met our needs and was a perfect fit for the team.
I would certainly be happy to recommend Cedar as I would be confident the service would be exemplary.”
“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.”
“Cedar helped me to recruit permanent finance professionals in my previous company who went on to become part of the talent pool. At Montessori St Nicholas, being commercial and financial is key to a Charity with trading subsidiaries that fund its social impact programmes. The team at Cedar put forward the right people, first time for both interim and permanent finance roles and are key to helping me build the finance team that we need for the future. For me, an ingredient to achieving that success is knowing that Cedar is a partner and not just a service provider.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Cedar to find a full time CFO. We were looking for a very specific type of candidate, which they very much understood and definitely delivered on. From our initial consultation, through to the selection, shortlist and negotiation, they made everything very simple and straight forward.”
“The team focused on ensuring the fit was right on each occasion, rather than “throwing a lot at the wall and seeing what sticks”. They answered all of my many questions and made sure I felt completely comfortable and supported along the way, I could not fault anything!”
