What they’re saying about usSuccess stories from our valued candidates and clients
“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 Cedar team are brilliant and gifted recruiters, who really care, listen and focus, to best understand their clients’ needs; and amazingly translates them into customized research. They know how to get the best out of people! What really impressed me, is just how efficient and polished the process is. It’s without hesitation that I recommend Cedar if you are looking for the best Recruiters.”
“After struggling to recruit a Finance Manager with suitable restaurant experience, I was introduced to Cedar by our new MD and the step change in the both the quality of candidates and the focus/support from the team was immediately evident. They successfully placed a candidate, initially on a short term basis which subsequently became permanent. The professionalism and expertise that Cedar exude is impressive and is the reason why I haven’t looked elsewhere since that first recruit. From from both a business, and more recently a personal perspective, they offer impartial career guidance.”
“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.”
“We instructed Cedar to help us hire a Financial Analyst – Global Operations position as we were not finding candidates with the right skill-set coupled with the right cultural/personality fit for our business. We also had an urgent need to fill the role and ideally wanted a candidate on-board within three months. Working with Cedar was a revelation, they sent through three excellent CVs and we met with two great candidates and took both through the final stage interviews resulting in us making an offer to a truly excellent candidate. Cedar offer a very fast, efficient and highly communicative service. The whole process took just 10 days – a great experience!”
“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!”
We retained cedar to help us manage a critical senior finance hire. They took a very comprehensive briefing, gave great advice on how best to approach the market, and then delivered a high-quality shortlist populated with candidates who had both the right skillset and the right personalities.
The whole process took only 6 weeks from project sign-off to offer and we secured a great candidate much quicker than I expected. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cedar as a genuinely value-adding recruitment partner.
“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.”
