"It has been a pleasure working with Stuart as a candidate and as a client. He took the time to thoroughly understand my skills, experiences, and career aspirations, ensuring a perfect match with the job opportunity. Also, Stuart has a positive attitude and enthusiasm, and he was incredibly diligent in keeping me informed and prepared at every stage, from the initial conversation to the final interview, and that makes him stand out as an outstanding hard-working professional. When recruiting for my team, he is someone who understands the challenges, dynamics, and culture to seek out the very best people for the team. I highly recommend Stuart to anyone seeking a diligent, positive, and professional charity recruiter."

"Stuart was enormously supportive during the recruitment process for my current role at Street League. He really took the time to get to know me and his understanding of Street League and the role of Head of Major Giving was insightful as I prepared for interviews. I really can't thank Stuart enough for finding me this role, nor can I recommend him enough as an enthusiastic and knowledgeable recruiter."

"We had an agency work a role for us with poor results, another refused because of what we were offering. Merrifield Consultants then took on our role and they came up with 6 excellent candidates in 48 hours and we were blown away. We’ve never experienced recruitment like it!"

"I truly appreciated meeting and working with Stuart. Passionate about his work and about people, he is proactive and naturally goes the extra mile, tailoring the vacancies in line with applicant skills and personality. His sharp listening skills and intuition fostered enriching interviews with prospects. They also translated into the perfect match with my current employer, both from a professional and human perspective."

"The thing I most value about working with Stuart is his humanity. Some recruitment consultants are bluffing when they say don't worry, we've got your details, we know what you are looking for and we'll be in touch as soon as something comes up. I trust that Stuart does understand what I need and am looking for, which is a strong suit in recruitment, where consultants typically deal with hundreds of clients in an industry where churn is high."

"Stuart helped navigate us through a challenging recruitment period by listening carefully to our needs and selecting quality candidates which had met our skills and experience requirements. This meant that we were finally able to appoint to positions we were hiring into, placing two excellent candidates who are settling in very well and are totally meeting our expectations. Through working with Stuart, it’s clear to see that getting the right recruiter really makes all the difference in obtaining quality candidates and success in recruitment."

"There are a very few recruitment consultants that make the effort to really understand and place candidates into roles that matches their individual needs. My experience with Claire Stevens has to be one that really demonstrates consultancy at its best. Claire was really helpful and matched a role that I am a perfect for. I was guided all the way through of from initial interview to advise on presentation tips which really impressed my new employers. I start next week as a result of the fast turn around. I would like to really extend my gratitude and thanks to Claire. Thank you for helping me back into work after I have taken a long time out from work for care duties. Other recruiters did not pay me any attention let alone put me forward for any interviews."

"Great support from Clare for the interview process and other general support. She made the transition smooth keeping me up to date as much as possible and I would definitely work with her on future opportunities."

"Akash in the beginning and Claire after, have been very helpful, supportive and understanding from the first call and through the interviews process. Very happy with the service provided."

"Akash helped us find the perfect person for our team. Throughout the process he was knowledgeable, patient, transparent and responsive. It was a pleasure working with him!"

"I'm happy to recommend Akash. I've had very pleasant interactions with him in which he came across as professional, warm, and a clear and comprehensive communicator. I also had the impression that he was quite attentive in his client relationships; he would follow up on things mentioned in previous calls, and to that degree the calls did not feel rote, but more personal. Akash does well in representing Merrifield Consultants."

"Akash was such a great help in securing a new role for me. Akash showed a vested interest in supporting me and ensuring I get a role that matches my skills and my needs. I could not recommend the team more. They are extremely competent with excellent customer service and showed a continuous level of care throughout the whole process."

"I wholeheartedly recommend Moses for anyone seeking a top-tier recruiter. Moses recently helped me secure a fantastic contract role as Senior Corporate Partnerships Manager at Honeypot, and I couldn't be more grateful for his expertise and support throughout the process. From our initial conversation, Moses demonstrated a deep understanding of both my career goals and Honeypot's specific needs. He took the time to truly understand my skills and experience, ensuring that I was a strong match for the role. He was incredibly proactive, keeping me informed every step of the way and providing valuable insights and advice that helped me prepare for interviews and ultimately land the job."
