In their own words.

“Every candidate presented was of a hireable standard.” We engaged Fairbank People to recruit two Bid Writers and subsequently two Bid Managers for our work winning team. All four hires were successful and each candidate accepted the terms offered and none were counter-offered. Colin added value throughout the process, including advising on adjustments to role seniority where appropriate. Every candidate presented was of a hireable standard, which meant we avoided speculative interviews and used our time efficiently. Communication was clear and consistent throughout, and the process from briefing to start date ran smoothly on each occasion. I would recommend Colin to any organisation looking to strengthen its work winning capability.

“On every occasion he has gone above and beyond.” I’ve worked with Colin for over three years on several different vacancies within the team. For me, finding the right person is about more than their experience on paper. Colin invests time and effort into learning about each candidate he works with, as well as the hiring teams, to really understand what we’re all looking for. This enables him to find fantastic matches and make strategic recommendations throughout the hiring process. I’d recommend Colin to any hiring manager looking to find great bids people to join their team.

“Could not recommend any higher.” Fairbank People’s approach towards the recruitment of bid professionals is the most intelligent, thoughtfully planned, considered and professional methodology I have ever experienced.

“He was dedicated to helping me find a team that matched my values.” When it came to switching industries, Colin eased any doubts I had with his guidance and reassurance that my skills were transferable and how they fitted the new role. Fairbank People recruited me into a role in a completely new industry after many years at the same company. From the start, he was dedicated to helping me find a team that matched both my professional skills and personal values, which was very important to me. Colin is personable and approachable, which made it easy to discuss my career goals and any concerns. I highly recommend working with him.

“From the minute we first spoke, he had done his research.” I am extremely thankful to Colin for helping me secure my current role. I was debating a move into a different industry but was unsure how to approach it. Colin offered instrumental guidance on how to make a seamless transition, while still working in a field I enjoy. His approach was always helpful and considerate at a time when I was uncertain what my future career would look like. I would have no hesitation in recommending Fairbank People to others looking for professional guidance in their careers.
