What they’re saying about usSuccess stories from our valued candidates and clients
“Cedar successfully place two very good candidates with us, one for the Head of Sourcing and the other Customer Development Manager. The recruiter took the time to understand our needs and our pains and successfully came up with the right candidates within strict time constraints. I would happily use Cedar again for our hiring needs as they were not pushy, forceful, or salesy, which is a breath of fresh air”
Recruitment Challenge: Attracting talent with commercial finance experience
Nick Sambridge, Finance Director – IT and Transformation, explains that his biggest recruitment challenge for Post Office Ltd is attracting senior finance professionals with commercial experience.
“I have worked with Cedar on both sides of the process, having been headhunted for my current role and they also found me some great candidates for my team. Cedar is the most proactive recruiter I have come across in a long time, always transparent, honest, and great work ethics.”
“Cedar have greatly assisted me in building the team I need to deliver the business requirements in a challenging environment. The team have taken the time to get to know me and my requirements achieving a high level of successful recruitment. They are dependable and high in integrity, and go the extra mile to support me and they work hard to make recruitment for me as smooth as possible. They never complain when I give them an impossible task and, when I was in need of immediate short term staffing assistance; the team were quick to help. They are very effective at their job and it’s a pleasure to recommend Cedar as accomplished recruiting professionals.”
“Having worked with Cedar for a number of years they have become the first port of call when I am looking to fill a position. They have consistently delivered a selection of high-quality and well-vetted candidates to the business and most importantly candidates who are appropriate for the role on offer. Clearly, a lot of thought and time goes in to this process and it is the mark of a great agency when the candidates are not only very targeted to the role but well prepared for the interview.
I have sourced both interims and permanent candidates and on the interim side, Cedar has the bench to be able to provide quality individuals quickly and efficiently. The absolute key to our relationship has been the deep understanding by Cedar of our business, what we are looking for in people, and being able to provide candidates who fit the roles and culture of our company.”
“Our most recent hire nearly didn’t happen. Only through the tenacity and insight of Howard and his team at Cedar were we finally persuaded to interview the candidate who we eventually hired, otherwise his CV could still be sitting on the ‘unlikely to be appropriate pile’. Cedar offer a genuinely consultative service and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.”
“Cedar is a pleasure to work with, I have worked with them on both ends of the spectrum where they headhunted me for my new role and also found me some great candidates for my team.”
“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.”
