Simon Bown,

Director of HSEQ

Working with GS2 to recruit our Sustainability Lead - Development was a completely different experience to any recruitment I had done in the past. I had already seen a successful outcome of this approach when they recruited on behalf of the Better Buildings Partnership. What you get with GS2 is a very personal approach - they genuinely care that they are providing the right candidate and the right solution, and they manage expectations well.

Janine Cole,

Social Impact and Sustainability Director

The level of service, both for me as the client and for the candidates was exceptional and the quality of all candidates was extremely high. From the initial briefing to the final placement of the successful candidates I could not fault the approach and ethos. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with Josh and GS2 again in the future.

Alison Grogan,

People Director - Group Functions, Compass Group

GS2 helped recruit for two critical roles within the BBP and for a short-term project manager. The service from them has been exemplary.

From the detailed engagement on the brief to scoping out the market, the process was set up for success extremely well.

They really understood our organisation, our recruitment needs and how best to position the roles for potential candidates.

The initial engagement GS2 undertook with candidates, including interviews and candidate profiling was incredibly thorough meaning that we received a very high quality of shortlisted candidates.

They worked alongside us closely all the way through the recruitment process, supporting us and the candidates to ensure our expectations and aspirations were well matched.

As a result, we are incredibly fortunate to be welcoming some fantastic talent into the BBP team - what more can you ask?
