Aviko
"We’ve tried advertising roles in the traditional way in the past, but we realised that Coburg Banks have a much wider reach than we have, allowing them to attract and select from a wider pool of talent. This means that we’re getting to see people that we wouldn’t normally get to see."
Nelleke Flikkenschild, HR Manager, Aviko
MGI Coutier
"Having attempted to recruit in-house in the past, we were delighted with how simple Coburg Banks made the entire process, from first briefing to finding our perfect candidate! Coburg Banks have continued to build their understanding of our fairly specialist industry and approach in order to bring in candidates who are not only high quality, but exactly the right match with our business."
Natalia Gorbunova, HR Manager, MGI Coutier
JWA
"Coburg Banks helped us to find the right people in some areas of the commercial team for which we were finding it very challenging to recruit, thanks to their unique approach to finding and selecting talent. They ensured that our positions reached not only the people actively looking for a relevant role, but those who weren’t and who might be a perfect match for our organisation."
John Welsh, Managing Director, JWA
The Regent Group
"Coburg Banks has become an important recruitment partner for our company. We have worked with other recruitment companies in the past. But what we found was different about Coburg Banks was that they have a more focused way of attracting and selecting from the talent that is available out there, helping us to reduce our cost per hire."
Mark Cuthbertson, Commercial Director, The Regent Group

Sue Stephens
"I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the way you supported and encouraged me to go for this post. You are a very skilled and professional person, and I don't say that to many, because I'm a bit of a stickler when it comes to quality and professional presentation. You have a wonderful way of putting people at ease; I found your communication skills excellent, and you come across as friendly, positive, informative, and encouraging. Well done and thank you!"
"Don't under-estimate the power of your skills and persuasion, you have a wonderful gift, use it well and it will reward you with much success and happiness."
"From a very happy and appreciative applicant."
Sue Stephens, Candidate

"I have used Coburg Banks (and its predecessors) for 6 years. During that time they have got to know me well as a customer and have a good understanding of my requirements. They have recruited a number of people for me from shop floor to director level and have always provided a professional and responsive service."
"More importantly they have always worked hard to find me the right person for the job however demanding the assignment and elusive the right candidate. And over the years they have found me some first class people."
David Betts, MD Aerospace Manufacturing business
Capita Symonds
"I needed to fill a specialist role with our business to drive continued growth within the public sector outsourcing market place."
"I had been impressed by a more junior candidate that Coburg Banks had previously placed into our organisation so when I went to them with a brief for a more strategic role I was hopeful that they would be able to identify suitable candidates for me in this challenging and very specialist role."
"The appointed consultant was attentive and honest in his approach and was able to provide me with a number of candidates. He took time to understand my requirements and recognised that I was recruiting to build a team and needed a balance of competency and attributes as well technical expertise. He also filtered the candidates well so as not to waste my time and one of the candidates supplied by the consultancy was offered and accepted the post and has now started with our organisation and I am confident that he will be a success."
Jonathan Thomas, Capita Symonds
Edge Publishing
"Working with Coburg Banks is always productive. They take the time to visit our office and understand the requirements of the roles we were recruiting for."
"The strength of service comes from pre interviewing prospective candidates, so that I not only have a CV but also a detailed background to each candidate, I have confidence in Coburg Banks’ selections and can then quickly recruit from their recommendations."
Mark Cuthbertson, Commercial Director, Edge Publishing
Joy Robson
"My first contact with Coburg Banks was not like that of other recruitment agencies. The consultant who helped was very friendly & the information was precise & full. Also when he promised to get back to me, he did in fact do so, which made such a difference."
"I was successful in securing the job that I was interviewed for and am very happy in this role. I can add that I would not hesitate in recommending the agency to anyone for a prompt & efficient service."
Joy Robson, candidate
Gerry Probert
"I found my experience with Coburg Banks to be an extremely pleasant one, plus the consultant who looked after me had the skill to look beyond the CV and truly understand who I am and what I had to offer a potential employer."
"From there they went off to sell the person to my employer rather than a stereotype. It was excellent to deal with a professional."
Gerry Probert, candidate
