Overview

The Ashdown Story

Rollback 25 years, business managers were choosing their own recruitment suppliers, nothing was centralised, there were no internal recruitment teams, HR teams heard of hires when the hire had been made, companies were being charged astronomical amounts for a basic service.

There was clearly a space in the market for an honest, quality recruitment partner with fair terms, reasonable charging structure and success that was guaranteed for the long term - Ashdown Group occupied this space. No ‘cold calling’, marketing fair and reasonable fees and a 100% rebate appealed enormously and within a short space of time, Ashdown had grown from the two founders to a team of 38 supporting thousands of companies across the UK with some of the largest company names joining the fold.

As early adopters of technology innovation in the recruitment market, we were able to maintain high standards of quality, deliver rapid results for our customers and maintain our competitive fee structure.

Don't bother using these clowns. Completely unprofessional especially Jon Heard. I applied for an IT support role, Jon contacted me to say I was shortlisted and that I should CALL HIM to discuss it. What dodgy recruiter does this? Its literally YOUR job to be contacting the candidate not putting the onus on the candidate.Anyway, I did try and contact Jon via phone surprise surprise no answer from the unprofessional weasel.This company are a complete joke do not apply for any jobs with them as they will literally waste your time.

Excellent service from start to finish from Jon. I had an interview with the client, and by the next working day I had started the role. All the paperwork was completed quickly and efficiently, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. The team kept me informed throughout and were professional, responsive, and supportive. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fast and reliable recruitment service.

Ashdown Group supported me as a candidate from the point of shortlisting my CV for a role that was a fantastic fit with my previous experience. Throughout the whole process I worked with Will Cusack from Ashdown. He was a high quality consultant who acted as a partner to the client and me throughout each stage of the process. His first skill was in identifying candidates who matched both the profile and cultural fit to the client. The three stage interview that followed over a two week period was managed and controlled with the utmost professionalism by Will both in his communications with me, the candidate, and also with the client employing company. This meant that any queries that I had about the role were dealt with by Will in an expeditious manner. I would have no hesitation recommending Ashdown and in particular Will Cusack to candidates looking for their next role. From the efficient manner in which Ashdown via Will also managed the relationship with their client, then future employers should also seriously consider engaging Ashdown to assist with their recruitment processes in the future.

Chris is brilliant and I cannot thank him and Ashdown enough, Chris was in constant contact through out the whole process and talked me through everything so well and sent me all the information I needed to secure my role, I feel very special because Chris saw my CV and believed in me to be the perfect fit for a role and gave me the confidence boost I needed, so I felt confident going into my interview and Chris even sent me a good luck email before the interview so that also helped my confidence and congrats to me I got the job and Chris came back to me the next day with the brilliant news and made my weekend and he did not just stop there he was checking in each day to make sure I was sent my onboarding process by the Company and was checking in to make sure I was ok with everything. I would recommend Ashdown (Chris) to anyone the whole process has been magnificent kudos to you all. Thank you for everything xx
