Bio
Matthew Winfield
My experience with James was very positive. In addition to securing a good match for me, he was helpful in honing my job search and refining my CV (with good results!) He is dedicated, responsive and efficient. His willingness to speak plainly and honestly is something that I feel sets him apart from many other recruiters.

James got me a fantastic position in an established creative agency. He truly made the process as easy as possible, was engaged and supportive in every step, eager to get feedback after each interview, regardless of the time zone differences, and happy to help build confidence and share important tips. I got the job I was hoping for and the salary I asked for. It was as simple as that!
Max Benjamin
Contentious, diligent, wise and knowledgeable. I found James to be superb in every aspect of his work. A personal touch whilst being very professional. James supported my transition into a new sales/BD role as I was looking for a fresh challenge. Communication was first class. He advised and supported at the key moments which made a pivotal impact in my success to landing the role. Thank you James.
