Testimonials

Whitehall Consultants continuously seek valued feedback from both Clients and Candidates to ensure we never cease in our efforts to improve how we service each and every individual. We have made available to you some of the comments volunteered by those who have utilised our services.

However, working in the Public Sector dictates that levels of confidentiality must be adhered to at all times. All Authorities have a responsibility to ensure that best value is sought in every transaction procured with the Public purse. This demands fair competition and as a result our Clients must remain anonymous to avoid promoting one service provider over another.

Please be assured however, that the comments made available to you are genuine and recent statements.

A personal service, which is unusual in the recruitment sector. I was most pleased with how they tailored specific roles to my skills and experience.

This candidate was placed with a top five Consultancy.

Very prompt and helpful responses to my queries, adapting the assignment to fit with my circumstances. I was most pleased with the suitability of the assignment and the assistance of the consultant.

We sought and negotiated a post for this candidate critical to her personal circumstances.

Whitehall have provided a speedy and professional response to our business needs, providing a tailor made service with experience and detailed knowledge of local government processes. This moved our agenda forward and enhanced our strategic objectives. They have been swift and rigorous and are a pleasure to do business with.

This Head of Children's Services was sceptical that an interim consultant could integrate into their processes and achieve their aim.

Excellent service, thanks very much. I liked the way the guy's kept me informed at every stage. Both people I dealt with were very supportive and professional.

This candidate took the big leap from Perm to contract work.

Very professional without being 'pushy'. Went out of his way to make sure I was well informed. I was most pleased with the interest taken in me
personally.

This candidate is now in the 14th month of their contract.

Excellent service and respectful of my workload! The consultant was courteous, clearly explained the service and was very knowledgeable, hard to see what I'd like improved.

This Director of Social Services recruited one of our long term associates.

From the very start, Whitehall recognised that this was no ordinary sourcing arrangement. They actively sought to understand the programmes requirements, not just in terms of levels of experience required, but also our desire to ensure that the consultants we engaged would be able to influence senior managers effectively and “hit the ground running.

Head of Transformation, City Council. Recruiting Workstream Leads

Worked within the agreed timescales, very knowledgeable and this showed in their attention to the detail of the brief. I would work with Whitehall again.

This Programme Director of Adults Services had previously been struggling with internal processes.

I was (and still am) impressed by the companies ability to communicate with their clients in an effective, and more importantly, transparent manner. They saw their main priority as ensuring they found exactly the right skill match for the task required. It was never a question of just placing as many candidates in front of us as possible and the results are tangible. All candidates provided by Whitehall were engaged by the programme.

Programme Director, Consultancy/Authority Partnership

I was most pleased with the constant communication and support, David was always professional, helpful and understanding through some very testing times!

Despite a protracted and difficult process, our candidate is now enjoying her new permanent role.

I went for the interview with a clear and accurate understanding of the post. I was most pleased with the encouragement and attention to detail.

Now a consultant for one of the 'top five consultancies'

At a time where the need for independent expertise is increasing in the social care sector, I found it refreshing to work with a company that clearly understands thoroughly its niche market. They pay great detail to their client's assignment requests and, equally they work hard for the consultants they represent. I know from experience that the same cannot be said of many of their competitors. Excellent, knowledgeable, five star customer service.
