We were impressed with Spinnaker's ability to nominate qualified candidates which matched our unique criteria. Spinnaker's detailed narrative reports and interview summaries highlighted strengths, weaknesses and the individuals' capabilities as they related to the needs of our organization. We were very satisfied that these reports closely matched our own analysis of each candidate. As a result, the short-listing process was fast and efficient. We truly believe we hired the best available candidate as a result of Spinnaker's services.

When I was looking for a change in my shipping job, Spinnaker was the only recruiting head hunter that brought me the best suited job based on my past experience and requirements. It was a long wait but a worthwhile one.

As soon as they identified me as a potential candidate the dialogue never stopped. Their consultants are top notch, well versed in what they are doing and highly professional in their approach.

The consultant I was attached with (Nicola Melas) was extremely warm and understanding and was quick to respond to my queries. The regular emails followed by the phone when needed was important when time was not on your side. There were many issues that I needed guidance and support and Spinnaker was there out in the middle to help me out.

All in all a fantastic team with all the professionalism desired to get you the right job.

Thank You Spinnaker. Thank You Nicola

Caroline is a remarkable recruiter. She is extremely likeable and professional. I was impressed by her constant support and her attention to detail and would recommend her without hesitation. I think any job seeker would be very lucky to have her working on their behalf. What impressed me so much was that even after I had been hired, she continued to offer her support and advice, which was highly appreciated

Our company utilised Spinnakers recruitment services to employ an Account Manager. We required candidates who had both shipping knowledge and sales experience. Spinnaker delivered a number of quality candidates; and we now employ a new team member in the Commercial Marine Department thanks to them. The communication and follow up throughout the recruitment process was efficient.

Being located in Montreal area and not knowing the job market in the UK, Caroline Horsley has been a tremendous help and made it easy for us to understand better what was happening in the UK recruitment world and find good candidates for a position we needed to fill in the London area. She was very helpful, dedicated, always responsive and on track with the mandate. She is very personable and has helped us reach our goal of finding a good candidate within a reasonable period of time
