“What I like about Peter is that he doesn’t try to get you into just any role, but tries to find the right fit for you and his client, given the current stage you are at in your career and what your aspirations might be.”

“I met Peter initially and was immediately struck by his willingness to listen to what I wanted from my next role. In this space, this attribute is rare. Peter possesses a deep understanding of the profession and I found his guidance invaluable through what at times is a difficult process. His professionalism is a tribute to him and all of the above qualities set Peter apart from his peers. I could not recommend anyone more highly to take charge of someone’s career progression.”

“I have worked with Peter Jones since 2000, both as a candidate and although mostly as an employer. I have always found Peter to be tenacious, thorough and very knowledgeable about the market.
I most like that Peter would not try a fit a square peg in a round hole for convenience. He will always look to do what is right for both the employer and candidate.”

“I have worked with Peter for the last 12 years so he knows the firm and our requirements extremely well. I have always found him to be highly professional in his approach and always deals with applications and vacancies with the utmost confidentiality. He has always met all the candidates before discussing them with me, only putting forward those candidates that he knows will fit with our requirements. The ratio of candidates who we have made offers to in comparison to the CVs received is extremely high. I hope to be working with him for many years to come.”

“I contacted Peter after he was recommended to me via a friend. My 17 years of media and production accounting did not dissuade Peter from taking me on. In fact Peter worked with me to help offer my previous experience in the most positive and relevant light.
I am happy to say that it worked and Peter was supportive throughout the process of finding me the next challenge in my career.”
Richard Nicholas, Head Of Production Accounting, EWY – See “Services”
“I have always been sceptical about working with recruiters as I never felt they had your best interest at heart… however, having worked with Peter over the last 4 years I feel privileged to have the support of a consultant who I know has my best interest in mind. I would highly recommend Peter on a professional and personal level to anyone looking for career advice and their next step as I believe that such a sincere approach to recruitment is a rare find. Many thanks for all your advice over the last 4 years… very much appreciated!”

“Peter Jones was responsible for securing my current position. I felt that he was not only able to match my experience with available roles in the market but more importantly he was able to consider my career aspirations. Peter made sure I was well prepared, always making himself available to answer my questions and kept me informed at every stage of the process. During the time that I worked with Peter I found him to be approachable, professional and honest.”

“I am pleased to say I have worked with Peter for the past 15 years, during which time I have forged a strong professional friendship based on mutual respect. He knows our firms’ culture and requirements extremely well, always striving to maintain a high professional standard whenever we work together. His approach is simple……….look for the best match for candidate and client by listening and asking questions. Unlike many so-called ‘consultants’, Peter actually understands the way our profession works. I look forward to working together for many years to come.”

“After 10 years of being at the same Top 20 firm, I had my reservations about finally taking the plunge and seeking alternative employment.
I had met with various recruitment consultants in the past, but soon tired of being sent to unsuitable roles, which were not tailored to my individual requirements.
Peter was recommended to me by one of my colleagues and on meeting up, found him to be a “breath of fresh air”. I tasked him with very strict criteria, and he identified a role for me which at first I was slightly sceptical about. Thankfully, I took on board Peter’s advice and it was the best move I have ever made. After 12 month of being with my new firm, I was promoted to partner. I would therefore recommend anyone looking for accountancy roles to speak with Peter!”
James Hargreaves, Partner – Streets – See “Services”
“What made Peter stand out from the rest of his competitors was the fact he spoke to me at a point in my career when I was content with how things were going. He listened to what I said and told me he would contact me in a years’ time. The fact he did wait a year before contacting me again, showed he respected my position and that he was genuinely only interested in placing people in the right role at the right time. From start to finish the service provided was of the highest calibre. Peter’s professionalism and support was exemplary and I was impressed at how complimentary the firms that I saw were about Peter. This summed up my experience when making the all-important decision to move.”

“A personal service, where time is taken to understand your goals and aspirations. This results in only opportunities that are specific to your requirements being given for you to consider. You can then explore and question these opportunities as you wish, as the emphasis is on making sure the right role for you is found, rather than what is immediately available.”
