CleanTech Talent & Hannah were very helpful, personable and attentive when it came to aiding me as a candidate through the recruitment process. They were able to work out a good offer and suitable arrangement between myself and the employer, respecting my needs for work/life balance and demonstrating a desire to achieve the best balance for everyone. I would highly recommend them and am confident that they will continue to find the right people for the right roles.

Jim and his team operated as a true extension of our business, offering customized hiring solutions and cost-effective strategies that empowered us to make informed decisions on our recruitment approach. The quality of candidates presented was outstanding, with a high submission-to-interview rate and every candidate thoroughly prepared on the role, responsibilities, and our values.

Regular updates and detailed data reporting allowed us to maintain clear internal communication and stay on track with our recruitment timelines. CleanTech Talent’s ability to identify and deliver highly specialized technical talent in global markets has been unparalleled.

Jim’s personal and proactive approach, combined with CleanTech Talent’s dedication to excellence, has been invaluable to our recruitment. Their ongoing support to both prospective and hired employees has been faultless, and we are confident our employer brand is in safe hands. We highly recommend CleanTech Talent as a trusted hiring partner for any organization seeking a professional, reliable, and results-driven service.’

I was on the lookout for a job when Jim popped into my inbox. I’m normally dubious of these people that message promising the earth and I’d usually give them short shrift. However, for whatever reason, I gave Jim my number and he gave me a call. He turned out to be a really likeable character and we chatted about life in general and what we were both up to. I put the phone down thinking “what a nice bloke”. Over the next few days we spoke several times and Jim helped me tailor my CV and covering email to target certain companies. I secured three interviews (one I found by myself) and was offered all three jobs. The two jobs Jim found me were for a lot more (6 grand!) a year than my salary at that time, with a position a step up the ladder with companies offering exactly what I was after: work/life balance, training and room for progression. I am now really happy (and excited) in my new role. So, if you’re thinking about a new job, seek Jim out, or if he slips into your inbox, don’t dismiss him. Message back sharpish. I cannot recommend Jim highly enough. I really can’t. Thanks Jim!

Daniel is an outstanding and very experienced recruiter consultant! He supported me along the whole interviewing and hiring process, and ensured that everything was as smoothly as possible. We had fairly regular catch-ups to align and discuss every single step forward. He went above and beyond to help me out with a lot of different aspects of my visa process as well, which certainly made everything easier on my end. Thanks, Daniel!
