Testimonials

We engaged Tandem to manage a large number of new Design Technology positions and implement the complete restructuring of our recruitment process to form an onsite service. Throughout our relationship I have been thoroughly impressed with the professionalism Tandem have shown. Our account was managed by Dan Huckle and he quickly grasped what we were looking for, not only in respect of the technical skill requirements but also the important behavioural and cultural fit aspects too, showing a real understanding of the people and business issues affecting our hiring decisions.We were particularly impressed with their understanding of the Architecture and Design industry, its nature and how this can alter the recruitment process.

I engaged Tandem to help with the organisational restructuring and MBO of Oakland Construction. The project consisted of an executive search campaign to establish a new board of directors, the implementation of a new HR structure and upskilling a team to help with the future support of any recruitment projects as Oakland Construction grows. The end result exceeded my expectations having not only achieved all my goals but doing so in a confidential and professional manor. Tandem Talent executed my requirements perfectly and I could not recommend their services enough to any organisation looking for recruitment services and talent consultancy.

I have worked with Dan Huckle of Tandem Talent for a number of years and would highly recommend him to both prospective companies and executives looking to move on. I have had first hand experience of Dan's skills from both perspectives and cannot rate him highly enough for the added value he brings. Dan's strengths are his network, that are not only names in a book but serious contacts that he maintains close relationships with regardless of their circumstances, his extensive knowledge of the industry and his overriding desire to provide the best service possible throughout the process. I am always confident that Dan and the Tandem team will own the assignment from idea to delivery and will challenge me constantly throughout to ensure I get the best results possible. As the world wake...

We approached Tandem with a vacancy that we had been looking at bringing into the business for some time. It was evident that there was a skills shortage for our requirement in the South West but Tandem Talent were able to use their extensive network and deliver a number of suitable candidates. There was the obvious challenge presented to us by COVID-19, both in terms of the remote interview process and the number of candidates available. We were also presented with a challenge around a specific candidate that Tandem quickly fixed and got the recruitment process back on track. Tandem offers a really consultative approach and has some great advice to give around the market conditions and the recruitment process. They appreciate the balance of being in touch but also ensuring that they ...

We engaged Tandem Talent to help us secure a candidate for a vacancy that was crucial for the ongoing growth of a new product line within Bottomline. We were looking for a very niche skill set and needed someone with experience as both a product manager and a subject matter expert within the fraud and AML space in the banking industry.I was really pleased with the consultative and targeted approach that the team at Tandem took. Their ability to deliver a fantastic candidate within the timeframes we had agreed on, has ensured that the business can move forward on the timescales we have in place with our end clients. I would happily recommend Tandem for anyone looking at engage a talent partner in a targeted executive search campaign.
