“At English Rural I required staff at the Assistant Accountant level with good accountancy knowledge and specialist development finance skills and experience too. The response was quick and simple and within a week I had the temp in place. The candidate is still on my staff having had his contract extended and I am thinking of making him permanent soon.
The service I received from VHobbs Ltd. was very professional and they only sent relevant CVs to me for both positions. The response was quick and prompt and on both occasions I was very satisfied with the end product. I would use VHobbs Ltd. again for future needs.”
“I first heard of VHobbs Ltd. in 2005 while I was working in Bracknell. One of the best staff I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with (and hope to again) had been placed there by this agency.
I only found out recently that the Head of Finance / Business Unit Manager I reported to who was also an interim, was also their via VHobbs Ltd..
The three of us were credited with making significant improvements both in the quality of work and in improvements relations with Operations Directors, Heads of service, Budget Managers, and even with Central Finance!
Since then, when working for a variety of Councils up to Head of finance and Project Manager levels, I’ve always considered VHobbs Ltd. to be an agency that I like to include (when not constrained by client’s contractual arrangements) when seeking staff.
My latest role as Group Accountant in a major London borough is via VHobbs Ltd.. So I now have good experience of them, both sides of the table.
I can recommend VHobbs Ltd. to both clients and other Senior Interim Managers, and other candidates.”
