I had a great experience working with Gareth Thomas, who recently placed me in a fantastic KBB role. Gareth has years of experience in Recruitment, and it shows. He is so supportive and motivating, and he really knows the KBB industry. If you’re an Employer, Gareth will work hard to find you the best candidates for your vacancy. If you’re an Employee, you won’t find a better Recruitment Agent to support your job search. I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again, or to recommend Gareth for your recruitment needs.

I worked with Gareth Thomas over several months searching for a new role. Gareth was incredibly professional throughout and worked tenaciously to find me an opportunity. I’m delighted with the role that I now have and would thoroughly recommend Gareth and his team at Venture!

Seeking employment through a recruitment company honestly never crossed my mind until I was fortunate enough to be contacted by Tony B. I wish I would have gotten onboard sooner because it’s been one of the most uplifting job seeking experiences of my life thus far! The support I’ve received from Tony has been incredible, the words of advice really landed in all the right places, and I’m on my way to what feels like an extremely exciting future. I am beyond grateful for the time Tony has put in, and all the personal touches that have really enabled me to put my best foot forward. As much as I’ve been congratulated on getting a new job, it really feels like it was a team effort, I know I wouldn’t feel as excited going forward if it wasn’t for all the incredible support and advice I’ve received.

The great thing is that customer service is a very big focus of mine and something that I am passionate about. I've been on many training courses, so I know the challenges faced in recruitment consulting. I really enjoyed liaising with Gareth from the off. He just wanted to find out about myself. He gave me a friendly introduction to himself and Venture as a company. Gareth was really professional. We spoke about apartments and eventually it clicked that he had a particular position for me. There was no pressure. Gareth let me check out the Job Description and asked me to let him know what I think about it - after that everything just took off from there. I was impressed with the initial conversation. Gareth was asking questions and listening to me. He then connected the dots and showed me a position that would work well with what I was looking for. Gareth was always keeping in touch with me which was excellent. He gave me good tips to support with my presentation. Before interviews he was always a call ahead, getting me ready, prepped and helping me out with interview pointers. Plenty of follow up calls and encouragement too. Gareth was really supportive, even today after I have been placed in my role. I was happy with this whole sincerity of the process. I felt like there was no pressure for me to get this role. I was actually offered two other roles. One of the roles was paying more. I knew that I wanted this role after the treatment that I received from Gareth, Venture and Crown. If I didn't have that great experience, I may have looked elsewhere. A real testament to Venture. I am a strong believer in hard work being recognised.”

I Loved what Archie did. Kept things short & sweet to built the relationship up, which I found it wasn’t intrusive at all. We had a load of good long conversations which felt better than the usual recruitment conversations I was having at the time. Archie took his time & was always interested in chatting about what he had to offer. We would talk things through after work when it was convenient to myself was very helpful. I had quite a lot of experience already, so they didn’t have to do a lot, but I was still offered interview preparation and helpful information about the company. I have not had a great experience with other recruiters but Archie & Venture caught me at a good time, and I was more interested in a conversation. Archie would regularly check in to make sure I'm ok even after he has filled the role. Archie is a great asset to your business and I hope other companies find this review helpful for their recruitment requirements.

Really good service, especially Nick. Nick prepared me very well and helped me get a head start in my application process. He gave me really useful interview prep, as well as insights about the company. This allowed me to gain an advantage for the role I applied for.
