I would like to express my gratitude to Liezel. Liezel is the best recruitment agency I have ever met! Her urban design background allows her to give me good advice on my career as a landscape architect in the U.K. I am very impressed by her enthusiasm and professional services! If you are looking for a new challenge in landscape and urban design, Liezel is definitely the person can help you and you can trust.

Liezel is one of the best recruiters I have worked with. She did exactly what she said she would and got me an interview in a couple of days. I could not recommend her enough! She helped me get the job I wanted and advised me all that time. Definitely contact her if you want are into the landscape/ urban design field. You won’t regret it.
