I was referred to Rose at GKR by an interviewer who worked for a Mews property specialist company. Rose was an absolute delight to work with. She was professional, proactive, supportive and got me my first job in London within a WEEK of working with one another. She went the extra mile and gave me valuable interview advice and kept me in the loop regarding feedback from the companies I Interviewed at. It reached the stage that Rose even calculated how long my journey to the offices would take, so that I could focus on my preparation and have a stress free job hunting experience. I’ve never come across a more authentic, professional and hard working recruiter before. Rose deserves all the success that comes her way and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new role.

I first met Rose on a cloudy British day five years ago. In just 24 hours, she had secured me a job where I remained for almost 5 years. This position offered immense opportunities for personal and professional growth.

After sharing my aspirations, Rose's exceptional professionalism shone through. She didn't just meet my expectations; she surpassed them.To be candid, Rose's approach to recruitment is unparalleled. Her genuine honesty and dedication instill a confidence that you are in the best hands. Every pivotal moment in my career has had Rose's guidance, and I owe her a debt of gratitude.

Google reviews are great because I can share how wonderful Emma was. I had experience with other recruiters who came across ad condescending. Emma was personable and listened to all of my needs/requests and ended up fitting me with the perfect job opportunities. I was actually a bit surprised how exceptionally well she was able to find the perfect fit for me. I’m super happy with my new role and would absolutely recommend Emma.

Superb communication through-out, completely different to other recruiters, Michael went hunting for vacancies rather than just sending me automated emails from existing jobs that most other recruiters seem to do. Not only that, he actually got to know me and the role I was looking for to make the match completely compatible from both sides rather than just putting me forward for anything. A truly quality over quantity service, will hopefully be expanding the office I’m in and would only use Michael's recruitment to do this.

I was recommended to go with Lee by a friend and it was the best thing I could have done to find a suitable role. Lee was communicative, informative and was able to tailor my search based on my requirements and personality. He made the process seamless and much less stressful, all whilst staying friendly and professional.

Rose is extremely professional and caring. Not only did she keep me updated regularly, but she also ensured that I understood every step of the process and helped me make decisions about my next career move. She was supportive, efficient, and prompt. I must admit that her enthusiasm, positivity, and professionalism played a significant role in helping me make the right choice for my career. I would definitely recommend GKR, especially Rose, to any of my friends from now on.

I had the opportunity to work with Lee at GKR Recruitment, and I’m really grateful for his support. After being with my previous employer for six years, this was my first time interviewing for a new role in a long time, and also my first return to work after having my first child. I was looking for a flexible position to balance work and family life, and Lee took the time to understand my needs. He put me forward for some excellent opportunities, including the role I’m now in, which has been a great fit. I really appreciated his guidance throughout the process—he made the experience much easier and less stressful. I’d highly recommend Lee for anyone looking for a professional recruiter who truly listens.

Had a fantastic service from GKR. Everyone I spoke with was extremely responsive and positive. A massive thank you to Mitch who personally oversaw my case. He provided an invaluable amount of information and experience on each interview, called before and after to see how it went and help me through the whole process.
