"Steve really came through for us on a critical hire for the business, he took the time to speak with us at length about the person we were looking for, understanding that the personal traits were just as important as the technical skills to ensure the candidate fitted into the culture of the business.

Steve’s performance exceeded my expectations and I truly attribute my success in securing an exciting new role to his expertise, dedication, and commitment. He carefully considered my skills and passions, and throughout the entire process was meticulous in keeping me updated on potential job openings, taking the time to thoroughly explain the requirements and responsibilities of each position, providing links to job descriptions and company websites. His advice on negotiating job offers and a deep understanding of the industry also played a crucial role in helping me find the perfect position, and enabling me to effectively communicate my worth and secure a salary that reflected my skills and experience. Even after accepting a job offer, he continued to provide support to ensure a smooth transition.

I have worked with Steve over a period of years and successfully filled a number of roles. He has always put in the effort to understand the normally complex needs to the role and business before presenting a high standard of candidates. Candidate details arriving from Steve are always worth reviewing and this attention to the needs of the role, both immediate and as the role develops, has been immensely helpful.
Matthew Backshall

I found Steve to be really professional and really understanding of my companies requirements. He placed a large number of colleagues in the business and he is great to work with.
He is understanding of our processes and the different way we do things. I would definitely recommend him to other businesses.
From candidate point of view he also placed myself and found me a really good role which I am still in and enjoying.
Keep up the good work.

I have worked with Steve for a number of years now and he is one of my go-to recruiters. Unlike many others out there, Steve and the team took the time to really get to know us as an organisation, how we work and what we need. Candidates are always of a high calibre, and we have had a good running success rate. For me the most important thing is the relationship we have - I can trust Steve to be honest and to know our requirements. He listens to our feedback and we can have some robust conversations if we need to! I would not hesitate to recommend Steve and the team and I anticipate that we will continue to work together for many years to come!

The service I received from Steve at Coalesce Recruitment was second to none.
I required a change after being with a company for 10 years and Steve approached me about the role at SAACKE.
Steve was straight to the point, very informative about the job role and great at organising and planning interviews around my work schedule at the time.
The knowledge Steve has about the companies he deals with gave me a great insight on what to expect when going through the interviewing stages and whole process.
I would definitely have no hesitation in recommending Steve at Coalesce Recruitment.

I would just like to thank Steve for the successful application with Stone Hardy as Parts Controller.
Steve's communication and commitment towards myself throughout the process was incredible. He was always a phone call away if I had any concerns or queries and without his effort and hard work I may of not been successful in securing this role.
The role is perfect for both my personal life as a single father and my working future.
Thank you once again Steve, it's been a pleasure and I would have no hesitation in recommending Coalesce Recruitment to anyone.

I have worked with Steve for over 4 years. The reasons for this are his honesty, openness and understanding of the business and it’s requirements. Steve has consistently supplied excellent candidates for us or if he has been unable to, has addressed the situation and worked with me to identify alternatives that we can pursue to fill our vacancies. The lines of communication are always open and the response time good.
Donna Stonehouse
Chartered FCIPD – Head of People
"From the first call with Steve enquiring about my interest in a potential new role, through arranging interviews, keeping up constant communication between myself and the potential employer until the day that I signed my contract and started in my new role, Steve has been exemplary.
He not only sold the role and his client to me, but in turn, sold me to his client. I have never felt so confident in a job interview, nor felt so positive afterwards.
I wholeheartedly recommend using the services of Coalesce Recruitment, whether you are seeking a new role, or a candidate to fill a role. Beyond the professionalism, he has shown himself to be that rarest of things these days, a proper gentleman."

He has always provided us with high quality candidates and really tries to understand, not just the job, but the culture of the company and the personality fit. We have recruited some great people with his support. Furthermore, Steve is easy to work with and has always been happy to give us feedback on our requirements and expectations.
