Testimonials

I worked with Claire during an important search for a key member of my leadership team. All the candidates that she presented were of the highest calibre, with a broad mix of relevant experiences, and the search concluded with an outstanding recruit. Claire was professional, flexible and proactive throughout, and I would not hesitate to recommend her

Claire helped us recruit our Head of Retail and the experience for us (as well as the candidates) from start to finish was first class. More importantly the quality of pre-qualified and interested candidates was very high. I hope we don’t have a vacancy to fill anytime soon, but if we do Claire will be first to know.

court & spark’s ability to deliver on highly confidential searches is second to none. They thoroughly understand how we work and were able to source high calibre people from the limited pool with the necessary luxury credentials. We appointed two outstanding candidates to important roles within our business and I was absolutely delighted with the outcome.

I first met Claire when returning to the UK after a period working overseas. Without doubt, I can say that Claire's style and ability in matching candidate requirements with client briefs was exceptional. Most impressive was Claire's genuine focus on the needs of the individual. I have total trust and confidence in Claire and, as a consequence, would certainly rate Claire in the very top echelon of consultants whom I have encountered. I would recommend Claire without hesitation.
Rob McCartney

I have worked with Claire both as a client and a candidate and have found that in both roles the quality of service I received was always of the highest standard. Her level of knowledge, experience and professionalism is exactly what you expect and require when you are making some of the most important decisions you can make in your business life.

Amy Whittaker
Head of Retail
My candidate experience with Claire was excellent - honest and open throughout. Communication was clear and timely, with frequent updates and I really appreciated the genuine approach in sharing where I got it right but also where improvements were needed. At offer stage Claire ensured all considerations were reviewed and met and on acceptance the kind touch of a congratulations card really did surprise and delight. Having the opportunity to be supported by Claire was a real privilege.
