What Financial Planning firms say about working with Antony George.

Straightforward, responsive, fun.

Finding candidates who are not only right for the role from a skills and experience perspective, but who also fit our culture and values. Finding technical candidates who can also thrive in a client facing role has always been a challenge.

They have understood very quickly what we are looking for culturally, which has made the process much more efficient. Everyone we have met through Antony George at the interview stage has ultimately been offered the role, which is a great reflection of the quality and suitability of the candidates they put forward.

The quality of candidates, the understanding of our culture and the communication throughout the process have all been real benefits. Sam and Mark have built a trusting relationship with us very quickly and are both easy and fun to work with. They are straightforward, with no BS, and keep us well informed through regular check in meetings.

The professionalism, fantastic communication and contagious enthusiasm made the process seamless from start to finish.

We’ve filled both positions within just two months. You’ve provided us with outstanding candidates and we know the successful individuals are total game changes.

Efficient, knowledgeable, Team spirit.

The time taken to review lots of candidates.

Antony George has become an extension of Finura; they understand our business and what we look for in a candidate. Their knowledge of us allows for targeted recruitment and headhunting, and conducting initial and first interviews on our behalf saves us an incredible amount of time.

Working with them on a retainer basis allows us to manage costs and have a streamlined process to fulfil our recruitment needs.

Fun, Engaging & Unique.

The time it takes obtaining and reviewing CVs and then arranging interviews.

Lewis and his team took all of that away and presented us with a shortlist of excellent and appropriate candidates. Whilst it took some adjustment because you don’t see all of the work going on behind the scenes, that’s exactly the point and where the benefit lies.

I’ve been blown away by the additional support that Antony George are so keen and committed to offering. I love the community that they are creating to bring people in similar roles together to make the industry the best it can be. Their enthusiasm is infectious.

Effective, professional and an absolute pleasure.

Filtering through CVs received before getting to the interview stage.

AG have taken that pressure off us by sourcing candidates and running the first rounds of interviews, allowing us to focus on the suitable candidates only.

We gained time back to focus on business operations and other tasks while we were confident that the recruitment process was still taking place and only the high-quality applicants were being introduced to us.

Friendly, Attentive, Caring.

I had never done it before and was inexperienced and uncertain as to what I wanted and how to go about it.

Very caring and understanding of my business and my objectives. They identified what I needed and then tailored their search to address these shortcomings.

The quality of candidates. The ability to manage their fee across a period of time.

Easy, Effective & Efficient.

My problem was not having the reach. My LinkedIn advert wasn’t being seen enough and those who did see it didn’t meet the essential criteria for the role.

You listen. Simple as that. You took on board what I was looking for and filtered out those who didn’t meet the essential criteria.

I now have my first employee. You put someone in front of me who didn’t meet all of the criteria but you thought I would like to meet her. I trusted your judgment and was happy that I did.

Proactive, engaged & professional.

Finding people who are actually qualified for the job they are applying for.

Approaching candidates instead of taking a purely reactive approach has meant we have had less but more relevant applications, which in our view is a big plus.

Serious time saving. I no longer have to work through a ton of applications or find time for telephone interviews. AG takes all the hassle away from the recruitment process, leaving me to get on with my day-to-day work.

Tenacious, approachable, credible.

Tapping into talent that is not actively seeking a new opportunity and having the capacity to make recruitment your number one priority.

AG took the time to understand our business, the vacant roles and the character of person we were looking to employ. Using their extensive database and contacts within the market they were able to bring a shortlist of candidates to us.

Speed of recruitment, attracting talent for historically challenging roles to fill.

Professional, Knowledgeable, Efficient.

Recruiters following the brief.

They have listened, understood and delivered.

Saved us lots of normally wasted time and got the result we required.

Professional, Simple, Effective.

Getting decent candidates with appropriate knowledge levels.

They will actively seek out the right level of candidate which suits the role on offer.

They have made it time and cost effective to recruit and also given a sense of security that a candidate, and the right candidate, will be found.

Refreshing, efficient & innovative.

Sifting through irrelevant candidates.

They screen effectively, stick to the mandate and will also prepare a video presentation from compelling candidates.

Their fixed price multi-hire mandate charging structure over a 12-month period means recruitment has become more cost effective and their interaction with potential candidates increases the chances of a successful hire.

Thorough, pro-active, honest, professional, enjoyable, considerate, superstars!

Poor service from other agencies.

With a completely different approach. The level of service and effort put in by Lewis and his team exceeded all expectations. Lewis was also able to guide me as to what I needed to demonstrate to be deemed a suitable employer for candidates.

I now have a new candidate starting in two weeks.

Friendly, efficient, prompt.

Finding the right person who fits the job description. Recruitment firms have sent me a croupier CV for an admin job, you couldn’t make it up!

By listening to what I want and searching the market for a candidate I might actually want to interview.

Antony George taking the leg work out of sourcing candidates to interview. GAME CHANGER.

Professional, Efficient, Transparent.

We were replacing an adviser who had been with us for 23 years.

They engaged the entire local area for advisers that can commute to our office and provided bespoke video interviews for us to review.

Cost-effective, enabling us to spread the cost over 12 months and giving us the confidence that they had engaged all local candidates.

Easy, quick and reliable.

Finding an effective way to recruit relevant staff.

Antony George has made this very easy.

We managed to hire a good employee through Antony George and very fast.

Time-saving, well-connected, and efficient.

Finding the right combination of skills, attitude and cultural fit, while spending significant time reviewing CVs and interviewing.

Antony George understands what we need, searches the market properly and only puts forward strong candidates worth meeting.

Strong candidate quality, a creative video approach and a smooth, professional process that has helped us make great additions to the team.
