“Amy was instrumental in the search for an Assistant Director for my department. The search required a high degree of skill and sensitivity as the hire was required to be Emirati.
From the start of the search through conclusion of the same, Amy’s professionalism and responsiveness was outstanding. After meeting with me to get a clear picture of the Department's needs and an understanding of the skill set necessary for a candidate to excel in the position, Amy methodically went about securing potential candidates, candidly discussed their strengths/weaknesses and worked tirelessly in paring down the list of viable candidates to a manageable number. At all times, she kept me apprised her progress and coordinated times for me to interview the final candidates. The level of customer service I experienced working with Amy has been unmatched in this country.
The selection has proven to be an excellent one and largely due to Amy’s keen eye for spotting talent that matched the Department's needs. My high recommendation of her is unequivocal and I look forward to working with her in the future.”

“I have worked closely with Amy over several years in different organisations in the UAE. Amy’s ability to provide quality candidates that are the right fit for both the organization and role requirements has been excellent. We have worked closely together to source various roles from Western educated Senior finance Emirati’s to a UAE National HR professional.
Her attention to understanding the specific requirements of each role, including culture fit as well as technical ability, is greatly appreciated and assists in ensuring the right candidates are presented within often tight timeframes.
Amy’s patience and ability to communicate effectively with both candidates and hiring managers, also ensure a smooth and positive experience for all involved. I would highly recommend Amy for any recruitment work, particularly for UAE Nationals.”

“During my time working with James he worked with us as a true business partner.
As a long established global company, we place great importance on working with external partners who understand and appreciate the unique values of the organisation. James always undertook his work for us and screened candidates with these requirements forefront of mind and this diligence, combined with his specialist knowledge of the local insurance industry, ensured he was our preferred partner for sourcing roles at all levels.
I was always appreciative of the time James took to genuinely interview and understand candidates before passing them on to the HR team. I always felt assured that James was acting in the best interests of the business and he always conducted himself with the utmost discretion and integrity in our interactions.
I would happily recommend James to other organisations seeking the services of a highly professional individual to support them in their sourcing requirements.”

The candidates that she presents are solid, qualified, impressive and relevant to the role that she presents them for.
As a recruiter myself, I appreciate Amy’s follow through and follow up, as well as her approachable and knowledgeable manner.
Amy’s work ethic and commitment are above reproach.”
