I was recommended to use Cavendish Maine and I will absolutely do the same for the future.

National Account Manager

Grafton International
Rina you have been amazing, from the initial phone call I felt you had my best interest at heart! Recruitment agencies get a lot of bad press and I have to agree the majority I have dealt with recently are not great!! Finding yourself unexpectedly out of work is one of the most stressful times, especially in the current job market. You need someone to help and give you the confidence to navigate this tough time. The simple things like returning your phone calls, acknowledging an email and just treating you with respect seems to be lost these days. Rina…

Key Account Manager
I have worked with Cavendish Maine on many placements and they always get it just right in terms of 'a good fit' for our business. They really understand how we work and what candidates would suit our needs but also from the candidates perspective that our business would be a good fit for them. Cavendish Maine are always completely professional, responding to our communications with speed and diplomacy. I would highly recommend them.

Stihl GB
I have had the pleasure of working with Cavendish Maine as both a candidate and a client and I would recommend the Cavendish Maine team without hesitation. Their approach differs in as much as they truly seek to understand the brief and ensure the candidate and client’s needs are aligned.

Nick is the most professional but also friendly recruiter I have ever worked with. Nick goes above and beyond, as a recruiter, he communicates brilliantly and has a real empathy with his clients.
