“I have retained Wallace Hind for the last 16 years, using their full range of services to recruit a diverse range of professionals throughout Europe.

Three things have impressed me about their approach;
1. Their understanding and indepth knowledge of our markets which has proved invaluable.
2. Their genuine desire to really understand our need.
3. Their ability to convert that to a quality shortlist of candidates within the timescales agreed.

Their ability to source the best talent has ensured these individuals have not only succeeded but have also been promoted within our organisation.”

Mike Scott General Manager - Europe ITW Performance Polymers.


"We have used Wallace Hind to recruit our sales and business development teams.

We have been able to recruit good quality candidates from the packaging solutions sector but in addition to this, Wallace Hind have provided us with options from outside our immediate industry. This shows a thorough understanding of the market and the skills necessary for each role.

At interview the candidates were well matched, well prepared and are briefed accurately.

We have a very good working partnership with Wallace Hind and look forward to using their service again in the future.We would recommend Wallace Hind to anybody that needs an experienced, trustworthy and efficient recruitment service"

Eamonn McDonald – HR Manager, Artenius PET Packaging

“We have worked with Wallace Hind for over five years and their team has become an integral part of our recruitment process. They fully understand our organisation the type of individuals who will flourish in it
However, for me what is equally important is candidates are always "looked after" and are made to feel special.  I have received many comments from them praising the high level of professionalism shown by Wallace Hind.
 I am convinced we would not be enjoying the current level of success without the contribution of Wallace Hind. I would recommend their services without hesitation."
Carl Wheeler - Head of Commercial Operations CSL Behring UK Ltd.

  • Expertise in searching out those candidates that clearly match my needs and wants, the role and the personality types that would fit within my organisation.
  • Clear communication to candidates the role expectations.
  • Ability to maintain the candidate's motivation throughout the recruitment process whilst managing expectations fully.
  • Timely and accurate communication to both recruiter and candidate.

"Wallace Hind placed me at Bostik in 1993.After two subsequent promotions I retained them to successfully recruit a UK key account management team.

In 2007 I was promoted to European Sales Director-Automotive. I promoted one of those Key Account Managers to my former role. They in turn used Wallace Hind to find their replacement.
 
I believe the above is testament to Wallace Hind's capability to find the best available on the market. Talk to them, you won't be disappointed." 

Dave Jones. Director of Sales Europe-Transportation Division. Bostik.

I would certainly recommend them to other organisations within the packaging arena.

Simon Endsor - Sales Manager. Coster Aerosols.


“One of the reasons Citrus Training is the fastest growing company in our market is the quality of our sales personnel, the majority of whom have been placed with us by Wallace Hind..

They have worked on a range of positions from internal sales and field sales up to senior manager level. Throughout all campaigns the time and effort they have put in to understand our business and recruitment needs has shone through. As a consequence my time was not wasted interviewing unsuitable candidates, thus freeing up valuable time for me to run my business.

I would recommend Wallace Hind to anyone.”

Wayne Taylor. Managing Director. Citrus Training.


“It wasn't just about finding someone for us; it was about finding the candidate the right role. This is where Wallace Hind excelled against other recruiters.

"We have established a close working relationship with Wallace Hind Selection over the past 2 years.  During that time they have provided consistent levels of service, flexibility to changing circumstances and a supportive approach. Wallace Hind Selection is undoubtedly an innovative and responsive Search and Selection firm”
Ray Carter- HR Director Johnson Diversey.


“We have worked with Wallace Hind over the last 6 months to recruit Area Sales Managers throughout the UK. From the very start we found they fully understood our brief, business and the type of candidate we were looking to recruit.

It has proven difficult to recruit Area Sales Managers with Construction Industry experience. Due to this it has been imperative that candidates demonstrate an understanding of our complex range of products and that the recruitment agency has understood the type of candidate that possesses the skills and experience to fulfil this.

Wallace Hind always put forward candidates of this quality, which proved a success in the recent recruitment of 2 new Area Sales Managers – in what had previously been an unsuccessful recruitment process.

We have found our managing consultant to be a very effective account manager, always available to discuss candidates without the unwanted pressure and persistence that some recruitment consultants display.”

Joseph Parker HR Officer RIBA Enterprises (Royal Institute of British Architects).


“My experience of dealing with Wallace Hind and in particular my account manager has been very positive. The service we have received has been excellent with job opportunities being turned into CV's very quickly. The calibre of candidates has generally been very good leaving some tough decisions before moving to offer.

The most impressive point to note was their ability to understand the requirements of the role quickly through expert questioning and profiling, therefore ensuring that the first round of recruitment was successful.
Altogether probably the best recruitment agents I have worked with over the last 5-years."

“Wallace Hind Selection found us a high quality candidate who exactly matched the brief given to them. The resulting recruitment has been very successful.”
Peter Myers-MD. Altomed.


“Henkel Loctite has worked with Wallace Hind for over six years and the team has become an integral part of our recruitment process, particularly in the search for experienced and successful sales individuals.  

They fully understand our organisation in terms of how we work and most importantly the type of individuals who will thrive within the Henkel group.  

They have consistently delivered shortlists of high calibre candidates and in doing so helped me make the best use of my time.  I would recommend their services without hesitation.”

Andy Fletcher. Business Manager UK. Henkel Ltd.


“I wanted to thank you for the way you approached our search for a Sales Director for our trailer business. The research you did on our business paid its rewards. The CV's you presented were on target, and your preliminary screening on the phone highlighted some real strong points (and some weaknesses) with the applications.
 
Times are tough and getting a fast result without wasting a lot of management time and resource is important on senior appointments. All 3 of the shortlisted candidates could have done the job - which is not my experience with recruitment people generally."
Mark Carrington. Managing Director.


“I have been consistently impressed with Wallace Hind’s input and recommendations……I was pleased with the candidates selected, they were all in line with the agreed person spec and I am very happy with the service provided.

Wallace Hind provide a professional service, freeing me up to focus on other activity.”

Chris Selwood- Sales Director Q-Matic.


“As a growing business the recruitment of experienced personnel within core markets has been critical to our success.
In 2001 we chose Wallace Hind as a preferred supplier because of their ability to source those experienced personnel through tailored recruitment solutions, specific to each role.

Their knowledge of my markets and their transparent and process driven approach has consistently succeeded in finding us these industry specific professionals, a number whom have been promoted within our organisation.

We will continue to use Wallace Hind to recruit key personnel.”

Steve Plastow - MD Tesa UK Ltd. Part of Beiersdorf Group.


“We have worked with Wallace Hind Selection for a number of years. Like us they are dynamic and entrepreneurial and we feel they understand our cultural values and sense of urgency. They have recruited the majority of sales team and all have been successful.”
Graham Pattison, Sales Director at Variohm.


“We have used Wallace Hind Selection for around 15 years.
They have sourced high calibre sales professionals at all levels that have not only proved excellent hires in terms of their sales performance but their longevity with Velcro Limited.

The first sales person Wallace Hind placed with me is still going strong as my Sales Manager!”

Richard.Milner- General Manager Velcro Ltd.


“I have worked with many recruitment consultants throughout my HR career and Wallace Hind has stood the test of time! 

They have never failed to truly understand our business and the job requirements.

Our Account Manager is a complete professional and even manages to present me with the perfect candidate before I have given her the brief! I can always trust her integrity and confidentiality and feel that she is very much part of our recruitment strategy.

It’s rare these days to be able to put such trust in a recruitment consultancy.”

Joyce Guy. H.R. Operations Director. BTB Mailflight. 


“Wallace Hind successfully recruited through headhunting a European marketing team of six (Marketing Manager, Product Development Manager, Data Controls Manager, Market Manager and Marketing Analysts) for my division. They provided a highly professional service, putting forward high quality candidates forward to a number of extremely demanding briefs.

Aside from the above work, our account manager is very personable & good fun to work with.

I have no hesitation in recommending Wallace Hind to anyone looking to engage a recruitment company to fulfil their search requirements.”

Andy Watmore - General Manager Europe Automotive Aftermarket Timken.
