Client Testimonials
What Others Say About Us
I’ve worked with Toby and his team for over fifteen years now and he’s my first choice search professional. The work he puts into research and confidential reports goes above and beyond, ultimately leading to a first class process and successful senior hire. When I was Director of Capita Property & Infrastructure, Holtby Turner were the most co-operative UK Executive Search firm that I used – placing over 40 candidates in 10 years. Their research is excellent, candidates always top rate and their understanding of our business ensured we achieved a great fit.
Jonathan Goring, Group Development Director, U+I plc
We worked with Holtby Turner in relation to a senior role within the organisation. We appreciated their professional, confidential approach, and the interest they took in getting to know the organisation before embarking on the search. We would give Holtby Turner repeat business as they delivered what we required and are happy to recommend them for senior recruitment.
