MD of £70m Independent Bakery Manufacturer
“The objective of paying for a recruitment consultancy is to remove stress and time, whilst finding a suitable person. Harmas Riley sent in one candidate only – but of high calibre. Whereas other agencies sent in lots of unsuitable individuals. This, for us, was the most valuable contribution.”
General Manager of Subsidiary business, Global Food Group
“When we were looking for a new engineering manager we went through the usual routes – we advertised and approached a number of conventional agencies. We couldn’t find the candidate with the right skills and the right fit for the team. I then approached Ginnie at Harmas Riley and she quickly came up with a good quality shortlist. We recruited from this and now, two months in, I am absolutely convinced we made the right decision and got the right candidate.
The key difference with Ginnie is that she really listened and understood our needs before responding with a shortlist of candidates.”
Plant Manager, International FMCG manufacturer
“Ginnie is very professional, has great knowledge and contacts in the industry. She is relentless in her search for the right person and hasnt failed me yet !! I have worked with Ginnie on a number of vacancies and would have no hesitation recommening her.”

Candidate contacted us directly, on spec
“Thanks again. I first heard from Ginnie through an ex-colleague and expected her to be another run of the mill headhunter, but I was pleasantly surprised. Ginnie builds a genuine relationship through solid foundations and takes a real interest in her clients. From the first interview all the way through to the day I started Ginnie was offering support and guidance without being pushy. She is very knowledgeable in her field, takes time to discuss problems and most importantly is very personable. I would highly recommend Ginnie to anyone looking at switching roles (and already have several times) and wish her continued success in the future.”
