I have been fortunate enough to work with The Simmance Partnership as a candidate on two occasions and I can’t recommend Steve, and his team, highly enough! Steve’s knowledge, guidance and professional integrity is unparalleled. As a candidate, you receive an individual service that makes you feel like you’re part of a collaborative and high-performing team. There is constant communication, prompt follow-ups, the sharing of industry knowledge and insight, and support throughout the entire recruitment process. On a personal note, it is clear that The Simmance Partnership is built on human connection. Steve, Catherine and Debbie are an absolute pleasure to work with and orchestrated a smooth and enjoyable recruitment experience in both instances. A refreshing and liberating recruitment experience!

Steve is THE man when it comes to a human approach to recruiting in the FMCG world. He seems to have the trust & the ear of recruiters in the most prestigious companies and knows about so many relevant Sr. Management roles that suited my interests. I think it comes from the fact that he cares & has a genuine interest in people's careers and understand companies’ true expectations. Thus, I strongly recommend him to candidates, employers and future employees.

I’d highly recommend The Simmance Partnership. Steve and his team are highly personable and incredibly professional. Steve took the time to understand me as an individual. He quickly ascertained what my key skills were, my ambitions and what work environment I would thrive in. He made useful suggestions with regards to my CV. I felt suitably prepared and ready and excited for my first interview. Post interview I felt well looked after, I was provided with helpful feedback and felt supported throughout the entire process. I was really nervous about reaching out to a ‘recruiter’ but The Simmance Partnership is more than that. By having honest conversations I actually learnt a lot about myself throughout the process.

Fast result is the phrase that comes to mind with Steve. In less than 2 months from my first call with Steve & The Simmance Partnership, we had secured a role, in line with my career path in a new industry and country. Steve takes his time to understand his clients' current and future career and/or hiring requirements while sharing concrete industry knowledge and advice. He looks for a win-win position between prospective employees and employers and stays in touch with clients even after services are rendered to ensure they are happy with their choices. It was a pleasure working with Steve and The Simmance Partnership, and I would highly recommend for recruitment needs.

I had the pleasure of dealing with Steve & The Simmance Partnership recently to secure me a new role. Steve is very experienced so understood the next role and company I was looking for from the start . We had numerous conversations and face to face meetings to be able to connect on a personal level. Steve knows his clients business in depth and is in direct contact with the hiring manager and HR so is able to get to timely decisions during interview and contract negotiations. Connecting on a personal level in terms of being realistic, programmatic, straight talking and letting me make the decisions on next steps made the whole process of finding a new role seamless and actually quite enjoyable. Thanks Steve and the team.
