Invaluable support after redundancy
A big thank you to Alex and the whole team at Build My Talent. After the sudden shock of the collapse of ISG, Alex created several WhatsApp groups to support all of us, these have been invaluable as they have provided everyone with a constant source of information and help. Knowing there was this support has really helped myself and my ISG colleagues. Alex also helped by sending out our CVs to companies and checked in to see how we were doing throughout this difficult time. Thank you BMT!

Buildmytalent Review
The team at Buildmytalent have been amazing with everything that happened at ISG. Not only did they get everyone together during this difficult period, but this enabled everyone to help each other with advice and new opportunities. They also organised potential new employers to be able to contact all those that were made redundant at ISG.

An amazing team who worked quickly and efficiently to help ISG employees. Great support throughout the redundancy process!

Great service and communication at a very challenging time for 2500 odd members of staff suddenly made unexpectedly redundant, pulling together many different suppliers and contacts to find roles for a significant proportion of the team at a rapid pace. Thanks for all your help
Excellent BMT
The communications from Alex at BMT has been excellent. Alex has always kept in contact and provided any updates. The work Alex and his team have done to ensure employees who were made redundant from ISG got employment elsewhere has been amazing.
Great service
Alex's team got straight to work in forwarding our CV's to the various construction companys out there in one swoop and kept us well in formed of all outcomes...lm now in work 4 weeks later with a superb firm...Great service Alex...Cheers.
ISG collapse and the aftermath
After the collapse of ISG this company set up a community on WhatsApp and several WhatsApp groups for all of us to join - there were over 2000 of us that lost our jobs without warning. Alex and his team allowed us all to keep in contact in a very unnerving situation, helped to collate all the information for us re jobs, job seekers allowance, legal stuff. IT advice. He set up a jobs network matching employers to job seekers. At a time when we were in shock we felt we weren't alone and any advice was available easily and from people going through the same thing. His help has been invaluable.

Buildmytalent were really helpful in providing support to myself and
a number of colleagues after the company we worked for went into administration. The speed at which Buildmytalent was able to put together resource identifying vacancies in different regions really helped us get back on our feet. A really valuable asset. Thank you
Build My Talent to the Rescue
I cannot recommend Build My Talent and Alex Ramsden highly enough! When ISG entered administration, it was a challenging time for many of us. However, Alex and his team stepped up remarkably, providing invaluable support during this difficult period.
They worked tirelessly to set up communities and communication networks that made a real difference. Their guidance on CVs and job applications was outstanding, helping many of us present our skills in the best possible light. What truly stood out was their dedication to connecting those affected by the redundancy with potential new employers.
Thanks to their efforts, I felt supported and empowered during a time of uncertainty. Build My Talent is a shining example of how a team can make a positive impact in the lives of individuals facing adversity. Thank you, Alex and the entire team, for your unwavering support!
Thanks to Alex and Team
All I can say is thanks to Alex and team, in these unprecedented and unsettling times.
Did a lot of work to help all ex ISG people in finding alternative jobs.

Alex and the team at Build My Talent…
Alex and the team at Build My Talent were super supportive and helpful when ISG went into administration and employees were made redundant. It is so encouraging to see that we were not alone and had good people around us that helped us with CV writing, job search and general information around redundancy process. Thank you for all your efforts!
What an amazing team
What an amazing team. Stepped up when ISG people needed help. They have been incredible support. They stepped in without being asked and coordinated with us and companies out there willing to help.
Alex is an absolute legend who I will always be grateful for
Brilliant company and people
Very grateful for all the work that Alex and the team put in to help me and former ISG colleagues after we were made redundant with no notice. They are lovely people, super helpful and really great at what they do! On top of that, going above and beyond would could be expected of anyone by setting up a community for us all to connect and adding in companies looking to recruit, as well as directly helping many colleagues secure new roles through their CV matching facilities. Would recommend their services to anyone and everyone!
Unfailing support & guidance
Alex offered guidance, practical advice and hours of his time making sure we, the ISG victims, were supported, heard and signposted to relevant bodies and companies. I’m sure I speak for everyone involved when I say he made the unbearable much easier for us all!
Just brilliant …
Alex and his team have been unwavering in their support for ISG colleagues, they jumped in it straight away, creating WhatsApp communities that otherwise wouldn’t have happened, they have sent cv’s, offered advice, shared opportunities and generally been amazing. A shining light in all the darkness we have experienced. Thank you, thank you, thank you
