    Stephen Woolf

    Group Compliance Director

    I first spoke with Philip when he approached me regards a vacancy that he was recruiting for. At this time I was open to a new challenge as I had just left my previous employment. I explained my current circumstances to Philip who listened intently and asked some questions to ensure he knew exactly what I was looking for. What I found reassuring about Philip’s approach was his genuine interest in myself and helping me find my next role, his authenticity shone through very quickly.

    Philip then put me forward to the potential employer and things progressed from there. At all times there was excellent communication and feedback when needed.

    Chief Compliance and Sustainability Officer

    Phil helped us recruit for a position within our company – compared to some recruiters commanding a similar (or more) fee, Phil really put the work in to speak to the candidates and screen them before speaking to us, and it showed in the personality of the candidates.

    Phil is great to work with and we will be using him in the future. Can’t recommend him and the Safety Talent team enough.
