She has an excellent knowledge of the sector and this was demonstrated in the quality of the candidates provided.

“Scott found me a new role which suits me perfectly and I'm absolutely thrilled that at last I can get my career back on track again. I’ve been working with Scott for a year inbetween other temp roles and he worked so hard through some very challenging times.

I've been very impressed that he kept me updated with new roles and guiding me through interview processes, with extra interview prep help which I've never had through any other agency. Interview feedback has always been useful and detailed, and even letting me down gently when things didn't quite go 'according to plan'.

All in all Sewell Moorhouse, Scott, and the rest of the team whom I've also worked with, have definitely been the best agency I have dealt with over the last 2½ years since I was unfortunately made redundant from a previous role. Well done and keep up the good work!”

Hi Karen,
I just wanted to say a very big Thank you for your recommendation to David for the Credit Managers role. You have always been incredibly supportive of me and have successfully placed me in my last two jobs covering the last 8 years so I really hope its third time lucky too.
I would love this role to be my last one (In an ideal world!!).
Ive no idea how strong the other candidates are or where their fortes lie but I assure you that I will do all I can to secure this position. I know that you will do all you can to place me and that you are there if I need clarification or extra advice and moral support, and I really do appreciate it.
Thanks again Karen.

...out of the MANY recruitment companies that I've been in contact with you were one of the most professional and personable and I would definitely use and recommend Sewell Moorhouse in the future.

Global Credit Manager

Turner & Townsend Plc

“I have dealt with Sewell Moorhouse (SM) in Leeds for many years both as a placed candidate and as a recruiting Group Credit Manager, but more recently as the Global Credit Manager at Turner & Townsend Plc (T&T).
The business has grown over the last couple of years, significantly overseas and as a result of this we needed to recruit new staff to support this growth.

These roles have been across finance ranging from temporary, permanent and fixed term contract and I have therefore worked closely with Ryan Dyer as my single point of contact (SPOC) in filling these roles. SM & Ryan use a method of recruiting that is unique and successful that gives us here at T&T the opportunity to use their Leeds city centre offices to see a group of candidates for 1st interview. This allows us to not only compare the interviewees but allows us to make a decision on who we like much quicker.

SM & Ryan Dyer totally understand our requirements and expectations and they take them seriously and make it their business to tell me if they believe they can really match the candidate to us and our culture. I always give SM & Ryan the first opportunity at recruiting any temporary or permanent staff at T&T”.

I have worked with Sewell Moorhouse both on the client side and candidate side for over 10 years now and always found their service to be high class and professional.
Over the last 12 months I have used Sewell Moorhouse and Laura in order to resource some temporary staff. After liaising with other agencies I decided that the best candidates that were a fit to the job requirements was the ones sourced by Laura.
The temporary resource was a hard working individual that was professional in their approach which was as expected from Sewell Moorhouse.
Should I ever have any future requirements I would not hesitate in contacting Laura in the first instance.

I have known Laura for at least ten years as a reliable and professional recruitment consultant.
She has provided me with numerous high quality ledger staff and credit controllers, for at least three of the companies that I have worked for.
She does not send client details for any potential candidates that are not of the highest quality. Her approach is highly focussed on providing an excellent and slick service. If Laura should ever return to West Yorkshire, I would not hesitate in asking her to assist me in the future.

Just wanted to drop you a line to thank you very much for helping me secure the role at John Brash & Company. I'm absolutely thrilled and feel that at last I can get my career back on track again.

It's been great working with you (on and off inbetween other temp roles), you've worked so hard through some very challenging times.

I've been very impressed that you've kept me updated with new roles and guiding me through interview processes, with extra interview prep help which I've never had through any other agency. Interview feedback has always been useful and detailed, and even letting me down gently when things didn't quite go 'according to plan'.

All in all Sewell Moorhouse, yourself and the rest of the team whom I've also worked with over a few years - Lynsey and Rachel - have definitely been the best agency I have dealt with over the last 2½ years since I was unfortunately made redundant from Napier Brown (a job which you also secured for me through your Leeds office). No-one else has worked so hard and been so dedicated - and I have been registered, I think, with most other agencies covering this area. So well done and thank you again. If anyone asks me about registering with an agency I always recommend they give you a call.

Very best wishes and kind regards, Angela

“Hi Scott, just a quick email to thank you for all your hard work over the past couple of months in representing me and getting my CV out there...
I feel that you have represented my interests fantastically well.
You have been enthusiastic, motivated, energetic and innovative in putting me in touch with prospective employers, so much so that in my most recent interview, the employer admitted that they were only seeing me as a result of your persistence and determination. I can ask no more from you. To give this a sense of perspective, whilst out of work I have applied for approximately 60 jobs, and the only interviews I have secured have been via you and Lynsey at Sewell Moorhouse.
Being out of work is extremely difficult, and can get you down, and so your role in keeping me upbeat and positive cannot be underestimated. Your phone has always been on. You have contacted me on Sundays (which I am sure you are not contracted to do!) and I really feel like you and your company are on my side.
I am registered with other employment agencies, and I have not heard from them even once, yet you call me several times a week, every week, with new leads, feedback and sometimes just to see how I'm doing...
Keep up the good work!”

Candidate

 

“Many thanks for all the help and support you have given me, it really has been appreciated and I really do have to say that of all the agencies I registered with yours was the most professional in every way!”

"Hi Louise and Karen
Just a quick thank you for your first class service. I have found you both to be very friendly and professional. I felt my needs were taken into consideration more so than any other employment firm I've dealt with. You found me a job within one day of registering with which I start on Monday so thanks again!

Sallie Rodgers

“Sewell Moorhouse have always consistently provided us with high quality candidates. We have built up an excellent working relationship with Sewell’s for both Temporary and Permanent staff and they have listened to our requirements to such a degree that they are now able to provide a suitable candidate almost first time every time. It is because of this that they are now our first choice for recruitment. I would not hesitate in recommending them to other companies for providing the right person for the role.”

Candidate

"I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate your company, on the service that you have provided. I have recently had contact with several recruitment agencies and I can without doubt, say that you have been the most professional and helpful of them all. I have several friends that are graduating from university this year, having completed various accountancy/business qualifications and I will highly recommend Sewell Moorhouse Recruitment to them. Again thank you for all of your help."

Candidate

"I registered with Sewell Moorhouse for a temporary position and within a few hours of me submitting my details they were on the phone offering me a secretarial position. I was represented by Louise Edwards, who I thought was very professional and approachable. I would definitely recommend Sewell Moorhouse to any of my friends looking for both temporary and full time work."

Candidate

"The consultants at Sewell Moorhouse, especially the ones who helped me, deal with you on a personal level unlike other agencies that only process you as a candidate. Before I left my initial interview with Sewell Moorhouse, I had been found two job interviews for the following day one was for a two week placement, the other for a permanent position following after. I was successful at both interviews and had a job by Thursday, less than a week after initial contact. You won' t find a better agency! Thank you Louise."

Candidate

"I would like to say how much I really appreciated the way your consultant took the time to listen to exactly what sort of role I wanted and also didn't try and pretend that it would be easy when I was being so fussy. They made sensible suggestions in redrafting my CV and then made sure I was well briefed with who was who and the exact role before I went for interview. They kept me informed every step of the way, even to let me know if there was no news & I would definitely recommend Sewell Moorhouse and will be in touch if there are any further vacancies in my new company. Many thanks for all your help."

"After working alongside Sewell Moorhouse for over 10 years you'd think I'd be used to the impeccable service but still after all of this time they excel in finding me 3 fantastic candidates, all of whom start within 4 weeks. Both Louise and Karen have made the recruiting process so easy by finding the right types of people for us but most of all for being there constantly on the phone whenever I need them. I don't use other agencies because I can't find service like Sewell Moorhouse provide, they get my vacancies exclusive every time and they deliver as always with the highest of standards."

"I'm writing to thank Laura for helping to recruit our new Credit Control assistant, she had taken the time to understand our requirements and in a difficult market place she was able to provide a number of potential candidates. Laura was very honest about potential candidates and it showed that she had taken the time out to interview them before sending the CVs to us. Laura was very professional and kept in regular contact throughout the recruitment process and I would certainly have no hesitation in using her services again."
