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.

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.

Jim is a fantastic recruiter. He is a real talent partner, working to understand the role, hiring manager and the company so he can source great candidates. He then builds brilliant relationships and rapport with applicants, so we have honest and open interviews, and means we find a great fit.

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!

 I had a privilege to work together with Daniel on talent acquisition for about a year in marine industry. Daniel is proactive and productive expert on sourcing, finding and spotting the most suitable talents. He delivered what he promised, on a timely manner. His collaboration with the hiring managers was open, honest and efficient. I can recommend Daniel to any talent sourcing and acquisition role and project.

Their proactive approach, regular updates, and seamless communication have been exceptional. We highly recommend CleanTech Talent as a trusted partner for sourcing niche and global technical talent.

A recruiter who will strive to listen first and find the best fit for not only your skillset and career goals but also your personality. I recently secured a role through Jim and the team at Clean Tech Talent and would highly recommend them for their professional and efficient service. An interview was organised within a couple of weeks of getting in touch, support was provided every step of the way (including interview preparation and advice on trends in the current market), and in particular they excelled in communication by keeping me updated throughout the process. A great experience and I’m very grateful to Jim for all his help. Highly recommended!

Working with Hannah has been a pleasure, but unlike the normal route, got approached->discovery call->got introduced->interviews-> Offer, my journey was a bit different. Hannah spoke to me back in May and I politely turned down the opportunity. I think her professionalism drove her to approach me again after a couple of months and supported me all the way to the final offer. My confidence, expectations were greatly boosted by her and finally I joined the company she introduced me to and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Hannah and the team for your dedicated support!
