Burman are an excellent agency, and I'm glad to be working with them. My agent is Harry Attwell who has been amazing. He first contacted me some time ago when he took time to get to know me and to understand my skill set. He wasn't able to place me then, and in that situation some agents would have moved on and forgotten me - but not Harry. He kept in touch and we were both delighted when it eventually came together and he secured me my current role. He was helpful and attentive throughout the interview and onboarding process and has kept in touch throughout the placement to check all is going well. Always professional, while being personable and friendly, I know he really cares. I hope to continue to work with him in the future.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was really impressed by Burman. Ellie, who I dealt with, really listened to what I was looking for and helped me find the right job, rather than pushing roles that weren’t suitable. And the communication was excellent throughout. Would definitely recommend.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is my second time working with Burman Recruitment and honestly they are absolutely one of the best recruitment agencies I have worked with in my career. Harry Salter has been brilliant throughout the application, interview process and onboarding into my current role providing a really professional, responsive and supportive service which has extended beyond the recruitment process to ensuring I am supported in post. Highly recommend Burman Recruitment to other candidates and job seekers
