The Simmance Partnership have been fantastic partners in helping to build our Commercial talent. They spent time to really understand our vision, needs and culture, which helped pull together a strong candidate list, meant the process was really efficient, and ultimately brought in the right talent. We look forward to continuing our partnership, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to others.
The Simmance Partnership have become our go to recruitment partner for all commercial hires. Steve is great at taking the time to really understand what we are looking for and not afraid to challenge our thinking to help make sure we get the right person. Steve appears to have a great candidate base and I particularly like the way he narrows down the short list and uses an on-line video tool to help ensure we only bring genuine contenders in for interview thus bringing pace and purpose to the process. As an SME with a relatively small commercial population it is crucial we get things right and we keep going back to Steve because he has consistently helped us hire well both in terms of raw talent and cultural fit.
Steve knows the UK Talent Pool, like no other. He engaged with us quickly, showed us an energy and agility to make things happen at pace – all of which we needed to create an entire team from scratch. Steve is refreshingly different to his counterparts within the recruitment community. He is not afraid to challenge preconceptions...
It was clear from my first interaction with Steve and his team that we had chosen the right partner for our recruitment needs. Their rigorous approach and responsiveness to our feedback allowed us to accelerate with pace through the recruitment process. Steve’s brings a wealth of valuable experience to the table and helped greatly in screening and selecting suitable candidates for interview stage. This was evidenced by the time he took to understand our business, category and job spec. We look forward to working with The Simmance Partnership for our future Sales and Marketing needs.
Having dealt with Steve and the team for over 30 years as both candidate and client I now exclusively turn to The Simmance Partnership for all my sales and marketing recruitment. Their knowledge of the European FMCG market is 2nd to none, Steve and the team have always listened to my needs and continued to deliver accurately against our briefs. Over the years their headhunting has been 2nd to none and their quality of candidates has allowed me to build several successful businesses.
Guided by the candid approach of Steve Simmance, who has been an FMCG recruiter for over 25 years, we provide a true counterbalance to the norm, encouraging transparency and reality, factors so often missing in our industry today.
