What our Clients and Candidates say

  • Tony Adams MBE, Founder and Chairman - SIX MHA

    "Once again, the employee you found has been and is brilliant.  Thank you so much.  You have now achieved a 100% success rate, in hiring for us.  Seemless, professional and perfect in every way.  Thank you."

  • Iwan Lewis, CEO and Artistic Director - THE BARN THEATRE

    It’s the personal touch. Katharine Landale seamlessly became part of the Barn team during the recruitment process, listening to all our needs as well as offering sound advice at every step of the journey. I was particularly impressed with her care of the candidates, it’s a stressful process going for a job, and Katharine made sure the candidates turned up giving the best account of themselves- which made the decision-making process more difficult. We were spoilt for choice. Recruitment in the arts sector is particularly challenging at the moment, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else."

  • Lucinda Sowerbutts

    "Bold New Recruitment makes a daunting task very straightforward. We were delighted with the applicants and would not hesitate to recommend BNR”

  • Nick Hornby, Managing Partner - CERNO CAPITAL

    Bold New Recruitment made our search for an experienced person to fill a part time role in our office easy. They understood exactly what we needed and ensured we had a number of excellent candidates to interview. As a result we have found the ideal employee for our business. I thoroughly recommend their services."

  • Alex Thompson - Candidate

    "Anyone reading this who feels like they might need Katharine’s input and services, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She placed me into a process and was exceptionally well informed, asked really incisive questions in preparation and was laser focussed on the long term positive outcome for both the hiring side and the candidate. Happy to give more input if it would help anyone.'

  • Gabrielle Shaw, Founder - GABRIELLE SHAW COMMUNICATIONS

    "We have been delighted with Bold New Recruitment and their  attentive, professional and targeted approach. Our strategy business within the luxury sphere requires very specific candidates which are hard to find and recruiting is often very time consuming. BNW delivered within days several very well qualified candidates, one of whom we were delighted to employ immediately. They were all well prepared and arrived with a very good understanding of our business. I have known Katharine a long time and trust her completely. Anything she turns her hand to with be a success. I was thrilled to see the energy and care she put into finding the perfect fit for us. Her network is superb and I am sure this and her unique approach to professionalising flexible working will allow her to be very helpful to many companies and make great inroads into this sector."

     

  • Sam Lane

    At last an agency that understands that women of my age (55) are more than capable and have a ton of life and work experience to offer to prospective employers. I found it very difficult to be taken seriously by a number of other agencies but with Bold New Recruitment, I was put forward for a job that suits me down to the ground and was offered the position the same day as my interview - and I was the 11th candidate! One very happy customer!! Thank you Bean and team".

  • Lucy Johnston, Founder - BREAD & BUTTER MARKETING

    Your help in both crafting the job spec and making me think about what was important was so valuable. Thank you. You helped me to realise that being honest about my set up being based around my family was OK, and you encouraged me to promote the flexibility I can offer. The successful candidate told me later that this was a huge part of the appeal of the job. She also used your platform to apply for the job, and I think having hosted the job spec on a recruitment site made the process much more 'official', for me and for the candidates. 

     So I just wanted to say thank you for all your help with it, and good luck with what you're doing, I think it's so important!"

  • Frances Ryder, Business Manager & NED - SIX MHA

    “I respect your approach and decision making. I see you as a person that I can trust, seek both friendship and colleagueship and I know wholeheartedly that you also offer a sound guiding hand for Six MHA and I hope that the future is bright for us all.”

  • Alex Thompson, Managing Director - DOJONO

    “Katharine did a fantastic job of solving what was an already challenging brief made even more complex by the onset of Covid-19.  Despite this she was able to source, filter and then create a very accomplished shortlist without being able to actually meet them face to face. As a result the interviews we then carried out were all on brief and worthwhile.  Thanks to her sterling work, patience and attention to detail we were able to attract exactly the hire we needed.  Katharine is great fun to work with too.  I could not recommend her and Bold New Recruitment highly enough."

  • James Shaw, CEO - HPOWER GROUP

    “I’m hugely grateful to many people who’ve helped me on this journey including: Katharine Landale for your support, patience and encouragement.”
