Testimonials from our Clients and Candidates

I would like to say what a wonderful service I received from Sue; her professionalism in meeting with me and also arranging to find a suitable job vacancy which I was short-listed for. An interview was arranged and once again, I was assisted and guided by Sue in preparation for the interview. Grateful thanks must go to Sue for all her efforts as I was successful in being offered the role.

What a truly professional service and establishment. In recognition of the service I received, I will recommend ARWales to others.

Well done and thanks to Sue at Accountancy Recruitment Wales.

Part Qualified CIMA Newport

I registered with AR Wales as soon as I heard Sue was involved as she has built a deserved reputation for honesty and integrity, which I can personally vouch for having previously found a suitable role with her help. Having already registered with several agencies and being subjected to the hard-sell, I made the decision to trust in AR Wales exclusively in my search for a new position.
AR Wales offers a more personal touch and Sue and Colin genuinely seem interested in finding the right role for a particular candidate; particular attention was given to the culture fit of candidate and employer. I have already recommended this professional and friendly agency to others and will continue to do so in the future.

Financial Controller Newport

I have to say it has been a real pleasure working with ARW over the last 14 months and you certainly stand head and shoulders above any other agency I have worked with. Always being accessible, even during the unusual and sometimes challenging year we have had, with nothing too much trouble. ARW will certainly be my first port of call when I am next looking for a new role or looking to fill a role, in future.

Financial Controller Newport

I just wanted to say thank you for meeting with me, our discussion allowed me to make a decision as to which direction I wanted to move and I'm pretty confident this new role is what I am looking for.

Should I know of anyone looking for accountancy work I'll point them in your direction.

Accounts Manager Monmouth

I would like to take this opportunity to thank both Sue and Colin for helping and supporting me in obtaining my new role. The professionalism, friendliness and expert advice are second to none and AR Wales take a personal interest in their clients. Sue and Colin will always try and match the person to the role first - and not just chase the fees. I have used AR Wales for many years both for recruiting and job search and they will be my first contact for any future requirements. AR Wales are up-front, honest and a delight to work with

FCMA Head of Finance Heads of Valleys

My experience with Accountancy Recruitment Wales was extremely positive. The process started with being asked relevant questions to ascertain the type of person I was looking for; this first conversation was invaluable as it ensured the CVs I was sent fitted the job perfectly. From this I was able to find the best candidates to interview and this enabled me to save huge amounts of time trawling through irrelevant CVs.

Unlike a lot of agencies who just send you absolutely everything they have that comes close to your job description, ARW gave me a relevant shortlist and from this, I was able to find the best candidates to interview. It was so important that all candidates had been met by ARW as this just added a little bit more information to complement the CV.
I only interviewed a couple of people and found the ideal candidate in the first interview. There is always luck with these things; however, I do believe the process I went through with Sue and Colin enabled a pain-free, quick result, whereas historically, I had interviewed 10 people and found no-one suitable.

FC Market Leader Gwent Valleys

Very impressed with the service that I recently received from Accountancy Recruitment Wales. The service was professional, friendly, efficient and personal. I was provided with candidates that matched my requirements (rather than a general list of candidates that may have 'fitted the bill' that you are given by some agencies), which saved me valuable time. All this and more at that all important 'competitive rate'. Thank you ARW.

FC Manufacturing Company Gwent Valleys

I would like to thank both yourself and Colin for your help and the friendly caring words of encouragement you have given over the last few weeks. Should I need to look for a new position in the future I will most certainly be in touch. Once again many thanks.

Accounts Assistant Gwent Valleys

I can't thank you enough for all the help and support you have given me - you have been nothing like the other recruitment agencies I have been with in the past; you haven't forced me to take this role just for your commission, you asked me to think about it and even when you rang me regarding the second interview, you checked to ensure I still wanted to go for it. Can you also pass on my thanks to Sue as she spoke to me when I went for my first interview and I was panicking and she really helped me and explained that interviews are a 2 way process. Once again thank you very much.

P/Q AAT Accounts Assistant Gwent Valleys

Can I also say it has been a pleasure working with you Sue, Jane and Colin to recruit for this position. We are really looking forward to our new recruit joining us in the New Year. Many thanks again.

HR Manager Gwent Valleys

I would like to thank you for all your help in getting me this role. Thanks again to you and your team.

Finance Manager Gwent Valleys

If in the future I ever need to use an employment agency I would like to come back to yourselves, as I have been impressed with your service and would certainly recommend you

Accounts Assistant Gwent

Sue & Colin at Accountancy Recruitment Wales, provide a superb service to both employer and prospective employee. At the heart of what they do best is getting to know the indiviudal first and this gives them the unique ability to match the candidate with that relevant role. My experience found that they always kept in regular contact, whether you were moving through a recruitment process or waiting for that right job to come up.

I can't recommend them highly enough.

ACCA Finance Manager Gwent

I'd like to thank both you and Sue for your help and assistance over the past year or so and can honestly say I will be happy to recommend you to others and personally use you in the future.

Financial Controller Gwent

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your help over the last few months and for presenting me with this opportunity. I wish you both all the very best for the future.

Accounts Assistant Gwent

I have used Accountancy Recruitment Wales as my main recruitment agency for many years. They offer a superb level of service and source the right candidates for my roles. They deliver on their promises, and ensure that you are fully up to date throughout the recruitment process. Sue and Colin offer a personal level of service without the pressurised sales techniques often found in other agencies. I thoroughly recommend them.

Financial Controller Gwent

We have used many recruitment consultancies over the past 6 years but on this occasion we decided to utilise the services of Accountancy Recruitment Wales. I was quite astonished at the speed and high level of service provided by both Colin and Sue. We were attempting to recruit a Financial Controller and within a few days we were provided with five C.V.s who were all of an extremely high calibre. Following the initial interviews the selection process was very difficult due to the high standard of each candidate. We could have easily selected any of the interviewees but after a lengthy decision process the eventual candidate chosen has proven to be a great asset to the company.

MD, Service Industry Gwent

Just a little thank you for your help in finding me the perfect job. Thank you also for your words of encouragement and for taking the time to talk to me to find out more about my hopes for future employment, enabling you to match me perfectly. I will recommend your friendly, professional company to my job-hunting finance friends. Thank you!

P/Q ACCA Financial Accountant Gwent

Accounts Clerk Gwent

Thankyou for all your support and I really am extremely grateful for all you have done for me and without sounding cheesy you and Colin are the most genuine of Recruitment Agencies and care about your candidates.

Finance Manager Ebbw Vale

Hi Colin, Thank you for your help in obtaining my new position. The process was quick, professional & effortless. Your help, support, advise & backgound information certainly helped. It's nice to be treated as an individual & not just a number. Again, many thanks

Credit Controller Ebbw Vale

Just a quick courtesy note to express my appreciation for the professional manner in which you conducted the search for a suitable candidate for the Finance Manager position. I stressed at the outset of the process that confidentiality was a key consideration, and having read the posting on your website, it's clear that not only did you thoroughly understand the candidate profile and the exciting opportunities that position brings, but you more than met my expectations with regard to preserving client confidentiality.

At all times during the process I feel that I have been kept informed, well briefed and been offered useful feedback. Your approach has been honest, reliable and professional. You have never adopted the "hard sell" tactic and have consequently availed yourselves of dignity bereft of the desperation that all too frequently blights your competitors.

Thanks again - a job well done!

FD Global Business Cwmbran

Office Manager Manufacturing Chepstow

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sue and Colin at Accountancy Recruitment Wales and cannot recommend them highly enough for their care, attention and professionalism throughout the recruitment process. Like many, I found myself unemployed during the Covid crisis and therefore faced with speaking to recruitment firms large and small. It was a delight to engage with both Sue and Colin, who took the time to fully interrogate my CV and skill set, propose a range of potential opportunities and verse me in detail about them, having obviously taken the time to fully understand the roles being recruiting for. This professional yet personal approach was a breath of fresh air, when compared to many larger recruitment firms to whom it seemed that you were just yet another CV.

CIMA FC/FD Cardiff Valleys

I would be happy to recommend Accountancy Recruitment Wales to anyone who is looking for work in accountancy. Having met yourself and Colin, I found you both very helpul in trying to find work on my behalf. I wish you and Colin every sucess in the future of the company and have every confidence the company will grow from strength to strength.

QBE Accountant Cardiff

I'm just getting in touch to say thank you for your assistance in my search for a part qualified ACCA role which will help me to progress with my career in accountancy. I've appreciated the support and advice you have given me along the way. Since enlisting your recruitment services, I have felt comfortable knowing that I can trust you to deal with my information professionally and confidentially without worrying about details being passed on to my current employer or on to employers that I am not interested in.
Thanks again for your help.

P/Q Accountant Cardiff

Just wanted to say it was lovely meeting both Sue and yourself this morning, it is refreshing to find an agency that come across as sincere. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

FCA Finance Manager Cardiff

Sue and Colin always listen to your needs when looking to fill a vacancy, and having found me excellent candidates in the past, I knew I could trust them to find suitable candidates during my most recent recruitment process. They supplied the successful candidate who is even better than we thought at interview. Thanks as always.

Part Qualified Accountant Cardiff

I have found Accountancy Recruitment Wales helpful, professional and human. A recruitment agency that doesn't treat you like a number.

Qualified Accountant, Cardiff

Working with Accountancy Recruitment Wales has been a very positive experience for us. From the very beginning, there was no aggressive sales pitch or 'hard sell' when we first approached them with an enquiry about their fees for our vacant position; just speedy and helpful assistance. After choosing them as our preferred agency for recruitment, we found them to be helpful, efficient and professional at every stage of the recruitment exercise, and we were very happy with the quality of candidates shortlisted for our vacancy of Finance Officer. I would have no hesitation in using ARW again and recommending them to others.

CEO, Third Sector Organisation Cardiff

I just wanted to let you both know how much I am enjoying my new job. I am doing what I have done for years and feel very comfortable. You found a good match for my skills and experience.

Qualified Accountant Cardiff

Hi Colin Thank you so much for helping me land a new exciting opportunity. I feel like I stumbled across hidden treasure when I found Accountancy Recruitment Wales. I constantly felt like 'a number' at other agencies, not really cared for. You are professional yet personal. You understood my needs and always got back to me in a timely manner. With an unstable economy, especially for jobs in Wales, you have turned what was starting to become a stressful horrible journey into the smoothest most perfect ride. In the nicest possible way I hope I never have to need you again but if i do, I know I'll be in the most capable hands. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Part Qualified Accountant Cardiff

Thank you very much for your hard work on my behalf and if I'm ever out of work again you'll be my first port of call. I wish your Company every success.
