Russell’s understanding of IT and the associated market was a real breath of fresh air. The professional process Page Executive obviously have for senior recruitment avoids miss-understandings but makes the whole activity easy and painless and therefore value for money. The short listing was very accurate and the quality of candidate impressive. Russell is also very responsive, readily available and is a very honest, no no-nonsense individual which I personally value. We managed to secure a quality candidate who will be pivotal to our success moving forward. I am a very happy client and would highly recommend Russell and it reflects you pay for what you get, quality.
