Here are just a few testimonials from some of our many satisfied clients;
“ I have worked with Durham Professional Services for the late 18 months and have been extremely impressed. From day one my engagement with them was professional, supportive and personalised. It has been wonderful to work with an agency who really takes time to understand what you are about, matches your skills and values to client vacancies and making your feel valued and important to them. “ Thanks for all your support and keep up the good work. “

"Working with Durham and in particular with Gill has been one of those gem discoveries that once found keeps you coming back again and again. Her ability to see beyond the brief to understand the need and talent sought is a carefully crafted skill that undoubtedly yields a dividend. Applying this insight to a market search, the candidates she yields are often not what you expect but invariably are always the talent you need'
Simon Fairbairn, Head of Professional Services, Ingenico
I would strongly recommend Gill and the team Durham. My experience with them was first class! Gill supported me all the way from initial contact through to offer – and beyond. She and the team were always available for a chat and took the time to really understand me and the role that would work best for my career… something you don’t get with other ‘volume’ recruiters. You could tell that the relationship with my eventual employer was strong as she could see past the standard job description and instead see the role for what it was, how it would work for me and how I would work for the role. This insight was invaluable, especially in a buoyant job market – you want your recruiter to act in your best interest, in which case I can’t recommend them highly enough!

He has always demonstrated a level of dedication and determination to meet and exceed client’s requirements, and to readily enhance the process with his strong sector experience. He is regularly a first port of call for direct and clear advice."

"I found Gill to always get to know and understand her clients and candidates in equal measure. I continually returned to use Gill on numerous roles because not only did she produce good candidates but she delivered a quality service time and again. Gill is one of the best IT recruiters in the Scottish market place and I would have no hesitation to use her again and to recommend her to colleagues and managers. I wish Gill all the success in the future and look forward to working with her again."
