I have used another Rec2Rec in the past and had an awful experience. However Ash has been such a great Rec2Rec consultant and therefore has entirely changed my perception of Rec2Rec! He listened exactly to what I was looking for and he managed to get me into a great company which is a 100% in line with what I wanted. If you're looking for an opportunity not only will he listen but he will also advise you and give you a clear picture of the market trends!

I don't often write recommendations for people, however, the service that Ash went to was nothing short of amazing. He took his time, really struck up a chord to establish a relationship and understand what I was looking for, and went out and got me my perfect job. I would recommend him to anyone in the recruitment business looking for a position.

'From my first point of contact with Sian I experienced great professionalism, impeccable knowledge, detail and consistency, which encouraged my trust with her. Being a strong networker, Sian was always available to me throughout the journey to finding my next role, no matter the day or time, which really meant so much to me as it felt my quest was just as important to her as it was to myself. Down to my highly positive experience and relationship built, I have already recommended Sian's services to several associates and job seekers, specially highlighting her interpersonal skills, communication and detail when preparing you for interviewing. Thanks so much again to Sian Beck!
Territory Manager
I worked with Ash for a short period of time when searching for a new recruitment role in Manchester. After seeing a well put together advert on LinkedIn, I gave him a call and within an hour (or so) I had two interviews the next day. Ash listened to my preferences, and throughout the process (all of 2 days) he provided a friendly yet very professional service.

Consultative in his approach, I highly recommend Ash to any one looking to secure their next move within the recruitment industry.

Simply the best recruiter (Rec2Rec) I have ever met!! I was referred to Ash via one of my friends. From the initial conservation with Ash, he instantly understood my needs and made me feel confident that I was making the right choice by looking for a new challenge. Ash managed my expectations and with his endless list of contacts he landed me with my dream job within one month.
Finance Recruiter, Manchester
Ash was the only Rec2Rec that actually listened to my needs and offered a number of positions which exactly fitted my needs, most consultants see you as a fee but Ash took the time to get to know me, I would not hesitate in recommending Ash to any consultant who is looking for a new role.
Recruiter, Manchester
Ashley initially contacted me when I wasn’t on the market, he hypothetically asked me to describe my ideal role and then went away and made it happen. Ashley represents his brands well and I would recommend any recruiter looking to progress and fast track their career potential to get in touch.
Senior Consultant, Birmingham
Thank you again for your support throughout this process. I'm absolutely delighted with my offer and feel really excited for this next chapter in my life and my career! You've been brilliant and I can't thank you enough for the late-night calls/texts and being on hand with advice when I've needed it.
Awesome Rec to Rec!! Ash and his team enough, got me multiple opportunities in the Recruitment industry and I had no prior experience in recruitment. His ability to get my interviews but also make my priorities, his and not push me into any companies I didn't want to interview at! His professional and friendly manner led to me believing in Ash and as a team we got 4 offers and put me in the best position so that I could make the decision I wanted. He is a true grafter, you can call him anytime and nothing is too much. I owe Ash a lot!
I engaged Ashley James Consulting on difficult search with regards to locations, the service he provided throughout was fantastic securing me a number of excellent offers all in line with requirements.

I would thoroughly recommend using Ash to anyone looking for their next career move or to expand their business his knowledge and level of service are an invaluable resource.
