“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.”

“I approached Cedar to assist in the recruitment of a temporary Accounts Payable Assistant for my team. From the beginning, the team were friendly, professional and ready to help. They met with me at my office so they could get a real idea of what I needed in my team. They were professional, to the point and worked swiftly. The quality of candidates and the CVs they sent across were great and I felt reassured they had really listened and understood what an ideal candidate looked like for me. Within a week I had someone placed who was capable, well presented and ready to work – what more could you ask for?

I can’t thank Cedar enough for all their help and will certainly work with them again in the future not only for temp roles but for perm roles too.”

“I came to know Cedar when they placed me as a candidate a number of years ago, and have used them a number of times since then. They have always taken the time to understand the dynamics of the role and culture of the team and the organisation. They also understand that time is precious, and have always provided high quality shortlists and well briefed candidates. They are my first ‘go to’ option when I am recruiting in the UK, and have placed a number of successful people with me.”

“I was very impressed with the level of service we received from the team at Cedar. From the outset, the approach was both personal and professional. Having met with Cedar initially, they understood exactly what I was looking for and were able to work within a short time-frame to provide suitable candidates for the roles I was looking to fill. The candidates were all very suitable, my only issue was having to make a choice given the quality of the individuals I had been presented with!

Cedar were responsive to any queries I had and provided information requested within the same day. Having experienced their service previously, I returned to Cedar as soon as I had a requirement for an additional resource, and again, the service was very efficient and the post filled within two days of my request. I would definitely recommend Cedar and will be using their services again should the need arise in the future.”

“Cedar has been my personal agency of choice for the last 10 years and we instructed them exclusively to help in the recruitment of our Finance Manager. Due to the strict confidentiality surrounding the hire, Cedar exercised the upmost discretion when discussing the role with potential candidates and allowed us the use of their offices to conduct all interviews and discussions privately. We gave Cedar a very broad brief for the person we required, both in terms of experience and part-time / full-time contracts. By clearly understanding our business, Cedar gave sound advice on our options and provided a shortlist of very viable candidates. The quality provided was exceptional meaning we only needed to interview three candidates. This made our time investment to find the right person minimal and the process from initial meeting to offer stage took just three weeks. I would recommend Cedar for their efficient and highly effective service and will be using Cedar for any future hires we make.”

​“We chose to retain cedar on a critical and urgent recruitment campaign. We found them to be structured, efficient and genuinely consultative throughout the entire process and were impressed with the candidates that they introduced to us. Cedar talk about the importance of business partnering their clients and this was clearly the case when we worked with them. I would have no hesitation in working with them again or recommending their services to others.”

“The Qualified Finance Team at Cedar possess a deep knowledge of the charity sector and have a wide and varied network of well-qualified individuals at their fingertips.   What I valued was that they took the time to understand our organisation and the requirements for the role which made the candidates presented to us already a good fit.  This was also helpful if they felt a candidate particularly shared our values and the same passion for what we do.

Having a partnership with Cedar significantly improved our time-to-hire and by working with them exclusively, they delivered the perfect candidate in just 2.5 weeks.  I will continue to use them in the future and would also recommend them.”

“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.”
