What our customers say...
-
Cost and Financial Accountant Distribution/ Logistics Company, Suffolk
"The service from yourself and Compass Point was very professional, the main plus points were the proactive approach and the speed of response. The successful candidate has fitted in very well and has quickly become part of the team."
-
HR Manager - Wholesale Supplier, Suffolk
"I have recently successfully used Compass Point, in particular Paige, both as a candidate looking for a new role and then for recruitment in my new position. Paige was nothing but friendly, supportive and efficient and took time to understand what I was looking for in my personal search for a position and also from a business point of view whilst recruiting. Paige took time to understand the Company, its culture and the role which really helps in getting the ‘best fit’."
-
Senior Commercial Manager - Refrigeration Company, Suffolk
"Having recently used Compass Point, and specifically Annette, to fill a permanent vacancy I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to prospective clients. Annette took the time to develop a good understanding of both the role and my specific requirements for the candidate, which was reflected in the quality of CVs provided and ultimately the candidate who filled the role. Annette was personable and professional at all times and was a pleasure to work with. "
-
Operations Director - Engineering Company, Suffolk
"I wanted to find and take on quality staff across a multitude of disciplines; we have historically been faced with the dilemma of either trying to do it ourselves or dealing with the challenge of fending off the unsolicited attempts from recruitment consultants willing to throw bodies at a role. Historically we had a broad range of companies we worked with but of late have found that all of the best candidates were coming from Compass Point. We now always give first refusal to Compass Point after the team have taken the time to really understand our specific requirements and provide us candidates of the highest calibre, all of whom have added significant value to our company. I have no hesitation in recommending them."
-
Tracey
"Annette made the whole daunting process of searching for a new position really easy and straight forward, Annette kept in touch with me throughout the whole process, and thanks to listening to what I was after matched me to my ideal position, I would definitely recommend Compass Point."
