Graham Hughes at IRC has been outstanding. Thorough, thoughtful and a level of proactivity i have rarely encountered. He listened well to our very specific needs and we have recruited to two key posts as a result of his efforts.
I would recommend Graham without hesitation.

Professional and Friendly

I was approached by Maria with a role and company that aligned with my own goals and ethos. Throughout the recruitment process Maria has displayed the utmost professionalism, as well as going above and beyond the call of duty to ensure the on boarding process went well. Any concerns or queries were responded to quickly and thoroughly.

Maria continues to stay in touch, to ensure a smooth transition. A genuinely friendly person who has your best interests at heart, I would have no hesitation in recommending Maria or IRC to anyone looking for a new role. She is a credit to IRC.

Highly recommend this wonderful company

Maria has been a pleasure to deal with, she is professional and very friendly. She guided me through each stage of the job search and interview process calmly , she is such a positive person who makes you feel like you can succeed at anything. I have used recruiters in the past but none of them compare to the support I have received from IRC. So if you are looking for a new role I would highly recommend IRC.

Professional and pro-active

Professional and pro-active in finding us a suitable candidate. Where as other recruitment agents promised much and delivered little, Jonathan gave us a level of service he promised at outset and delivered.

A willingness to help

Graham took time out of his busy schedule to help myself, a young professional trying to figure out what career I want to pursue. He gave in-depth advice on the roles discussed while also using his contacts to further help my journey. His help has been invaluable and I cannot speak highly enough of him.

Michael was an absolute pleasure dealing with, he was on the ball with assisting with in reviewing my CV, setting up interviews and preparing me in each stage.

He is supportive in the role he brings to recruitment and really made the transition between my old company to my new one an easy jump.

Justin was a star!

Justin got in touch with me on LinkedIn after i was made redundant from my previous job. He took the time to speak with me on the phone about what my experience was and most importantly, what i wanted from my new role - i found that most recruiters would rather just request a CV from you without wanting to know anything else about you and i find that quite off putting. I found him very knowledgeable, friendly and informative. I have been able to secure my new position due to Justin's pro active approach at what he does and i can't thank him enough!

Brilliance!!

We have used Independent Resourcing Consultancy for the last 18 months and have been hugely impressed with Lewis & Nick, their professionalism, attention to detail, ability to deliver to a brief and work in a timely manner - and all at a reasonable cost. In a fast-moving market such as financial services, we need recruiters who can deliver and act with complete integrity at all times. Lewis and his team of dedicated recruiters have proved beyond any doubt that they are a class act. We would not hesitate to recommend them and we look forward to working with IRC for the long term.

Quality and dependable, the very best.

I have known Lewis for over 5 years now, and as a recruiter he is absolutely first class. He always goes the extra mile to make sure his clients are supported, from initial contact, right through to placement in the new role and beyond. I met Lewis through an initial recruitment hire, where he placed me into a company he was working with at the time. Everything he did was excellent, he stuck to his word and delivered on everything he promised. As an individual Lewis is dedicated, diligent and extremely focussed. He works extremely hard and gives his all to the people he works with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, and his company IRC to anyone who is looking to move role, or looking to recruit into their company.

I met Holly after being shortlisted for a Band 6 Physiotherapy position with Virgincare. Virgincare partner with the NHS and local authorities to deliver publicly funded health and care services all across England. Holly helped me to prepare fully for my interview and negotiate my contract. From the beginning of the recruiting process to getting on board with the job, Holly supported me throughout this journey. She has been immense support during the process. I found my mentor in her leadership. I am happy to recommend Holly as a great resource and as a Recruitment Director.

Exceptional service throughout the entire process

Having never used a recruitment firm before, and having run my own firm for 25 years, I wanted a new challenge and to move offshore. To be honest I wasn’t too sure where to start but IRC and Lewis in particular were referred to me. I met with Lewis and he briefed me regarding an opportunity based in Switzerland. IRC took the time to arrange flights and support with costs with flying me across to Geneva to meet with the client. I could not recommend Lewis and IRC highly enough. If you are looking for a new offshore role make sure that you use IRC as your first point of call. Thank you again guys!

First class service

If you are a Financial Services professional and looking for your next chapter, look no further than Lewis and IRC.

Lewis genuinely listened and understood what I was looking for when considering my next career move. The personalised service provided was brilliant and with Lewis's help I have now been able to secure the perfect new job which ticks all my boxes.

If you are looking for a new job or to find the right person for an opening in your company, I would highly recommend having Lewis and IRC working along side you.

Fantastic from start to finish. Lewis and IRC are great at what they do and are always highly professional. Lewis has been my point of contract throughout the process to find a new job opportunity and is always available and prompt to answer any questions or concerns. A true professional at what he does and goes above and beyond.
