I want to reiterate my gratitude for you and everything you have done for me.
Since our first meet I was incredibly impressed, you took over an hour of your time to sit with me, discuss my career, my personal life to profile me to gauge my professionalism and character to find not only a role, but a company where both parties would benefit.
Not only this, telling you the Company and region that I had aspired to work for, you made it happen. Within 1 week I had a meeting with the Construction Director and within 2 weeks I had been offered the role.
Thank you so much, you’re a credit to ACR and they’re lucky to have you. This is a relationship that will have longevity and I will be sure to be recommending you to ALL.

I am immensely grateful for the invaluable assistance provided by Zayna and the team at ACR in securing my current position. Transitioning from redundancy to employment could have been a daunting experience, but thanks to the seamless and proficient management of the process by ACR, it turned out to be a remarkably smooth journey.
Finding myself facing redundancy during a challenging period for the industry was disheartening, to say the least. ACR’s proactive, insightful guidance opened my eyes to the numerous of opportunities available within the market, perfectly aligning with my skills and experience.
Within days of our initial meeting, I found myself actively interviewing, and within a mere month, we successfully negotiated the terms of my employment contract. The speed and efficiency with which ACR facilitated this transition was fantastic.
I cannot thank Zayna and the ACR team enough for their unwavering support and dedication throughout this process. Their expertise and commitment undoubtedly played a pivotal role in helping me secure my new position.

I am happy to be able to say that ACR placed me in my new position. Specifically, Maisie has been incredible, she has kept in touch with me at every stage. I have worked with a lot of recruiters, so I can recognise a good one when I see one, and ACR is the best by far. Even after three weeks in my new position, Maisie has followed up to make sure everything is good on my end. Although I hope to never need a recruiter again, if I do, there is just one that I would use.

Zayna managed to help me achieve my dream job! From day one she was clear and straight forward, taking into consideration what my thoughts and expectations were and doing her best to give me the best opportunities. She honoured my morals and values and used that to find the company best suited for me.
Hopefully not, but should I ever need to find another job, Zayna will always be my first call to help! Cannot ask for any more from her. Even almost a year after she texts or calls regularly to make sure everything is good and I am happy.

Lyndsey, you’ve been amazing from start to now, everything your doing for me means a lot to me and I can’t thank you enough for landing me this position on my doorstep which is ultimately what I wanted. I will hit the ground running and give 100% commitment all the way!

I have known and worked with Lyndsey Hawkins with various builders over the last 18 years, Lyndsey is conscientious and puts her clients first and works well with the developers to target the right people for the right places. I have had over 20 staff from Lyndsey and many of these have gone on to be great Site Managers and multiple NHBC Pride in the Job winners.
Lyndsey understands her clients and knows what is needed and to find the right person for the job. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lyndsey and ACR to any builders looking for quality staff, and I look forward to continuing my longstanding working relationship with her and ACR.

I have been a Site Manager for over 30 years and have known Zayna for a number of them. She has been a great help while employed as Site Manager, recruiting good quality staff for the sites I have run.
In the later years, Zayna has found a number of good projects where I have enjoyed working as a freelance Site Manager.
Zayna also helped my son a few years ago to get an apprentice carpentry role with Croudace Homes. He is a fully qualified Carpenter.
I would highly recommend Zayna for the recruitment of Construction Management roles!

Lee was very helpful throughout the recruitment process. It’s obvious Lee cares about what he does and wants to put the right candidate in the right role.
He did a great job in keeping me updated and closing the placement. I would highly recommend!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with ACR in recruiting our design talent across Essex. Maisie was exceptional in understanding our needs and utilising her knowledge of the market to source high quality candidates.
Her attentiveness and personability in following up with both ourselves and prospective candidates helped mitigate any queries with ease, enabling us to fulfil our vacancies quickly and efficiently.
