Testimonials

First Milk Limited - Richard Hollingdale, Commercial Director

"Thank you for Denholm's support in the recent recruitment for the Marketing Director role. The speed of reaction to our changed brief was very positive. The quality of candidates shortlisted was of a good standard, and I am sure we have found the correct person for the role.

I look forward to working with you again on future assignments".

Emperor - Sally Binnie, Head of Account Management

"Denholm provide a very thorough, experienced service and are a delight to work with, I would absolutely contact Denholm for future requirements. A great company, they were extremely informative, helpful and quick to respond. Great to work with".

RAPP - Becky Bishop, Client Services Director

"Denholm not only understood exactly our requirements for each vacancy, but also intuitively grasped the right sort of personalities would fit our team and culture. Combined with immaculate service, I couldn't manage without them".

Edrington Group -Jan Anderson, Group HR Manager

"The Edrington Group has worked with Denholm for a number of years to fill several key Marketing and Commercial vacancies. The team at Denholm always work closely with us to fully understand our requirements ensuring that the candidates that they present meet all requirements and are of the best 'fit' for the company".

Denvir - Suzanne George, Chief Executive

"We use Denholm exclusively for all our important roles, most recently on the successful search that resulted in Claire Kinloch joining us as MD. Their consultants are the best networked in the business, and John Denholm's experience in building successful marketing businesses brings a higher level of understanding to the recruitment process and a discerning eye to the vital issue of cultural fit.

They definitely see beyond the CV".

MacDonald Hotel Group - Ruaridh MacDonald, Sales and Marketing Director

"MacDonald Hotel Group recently worked on a Head of Marketing vacancy with Denholm. They worked closely with us as a business to fully understand our requirement and best ‘fit' for the role. I have no hesitation in recommending Denholm. They are able to see beyond the brief and really pull out the stops to ensure candidates not only match from a technical skills perspective, but also culturally. Every recruitment process has its hiccups, but Denholm worked closely with us until we found a successful outcome".

Spider Online - John Campbell, Owner / Director

"When running a fast growing and relatively young business they always say get a good lawyer and a good accountant. I would say add recruitment consultant to that! Denholm give us the peace of mind we need when recruiting".

Culture Sparks - Charlotte Wilson, Senior Partner

"Having already advertised directly without success, we approached Denholm at short notice with a brief to source an experienced Market Research Manager, with specific knowledge of tools frequently used in our sector, for 12 months maternity cover. Due to time restrictions, it was beneficial but we assumed unlikely that the successful candidate would be available almost immediately due to time restrictions. Denholm responded quickly and effectively by providing us with a high-calibre shortlist of candidates, enabling us to fill the role with ease. The whole process from start to finish took just over two weeks, which was a fantastic result."

Morrison Bowmore - Donna Clarke, HR Manager

"Denholm Associates and Morrison Bowmore Distillers have worked together over many years during which time they have always strived to truly understand our business and recruitment needs to find the best possible candidates. They focus on how best to represent our business to candidates".

McClure Naismith - George Frier, Corporate Partner

"We were delighted with the service we received from Denholm, in particular their ability to understand our needs and source a range of appropriate candidates. The quality and speed of their feedback is also first-rate".

Scottish Friendly - Calum Bennie, Marketing Manager

"Over the years, I've consistently found Denholm delivers. They understand marketing and financial services requirements and if they don't immediately have a candidate that meets your particular requirements, their professional team will make the effort to find the right selection of candidates for you."

Scottish Widows - Richard Clark, Previously Head of Product Development and Marketing

"Denholm's service is both friendly and professional. Their knowledge of the local market and the opportunities they have access to are second to none".

Newsbase.com - Will Carmichael, Managing Director

"We gave Denholm a (typically) vague and difficult assignment looking for a fairly rare type of candidate. After only a short period of time, a candidate was found who matched, and in some cases exceeded, our criteria. After the interview process, we were then particularly pleased at the considerable time that was then invested in us and in the candidate in order to ensure that everything was in order and that there were no possible hitches. We were given excellent advice throughout and I know that the support given to the candidate was first class as well".

Burn Stewart Distillers - Andy Calder, Regional Director

"Denholm fully interpreted our recruitment needs and operated with the upmost professionalism throughout our recruitment process for a senior overseas commercial post. The short list of candidates was very close to brief and it has been a real pleasure to work with them".

Weir Power and Industrial - Linzi McGuire, HR Business Partner

"Denholm Associates have presented me with some excellent marketing candidates, whom we have appointed to marketing positions within our Company. This is due to Denholm having a real understanding of the job and person specification to ensure that candidates succeed in the role".
