I worked with Alasdair Risk on a business critical piece of recruitment to find a new HRD. Alasdair really understood the brief and candidate profile the business was looking for, and the need for a fast and efficient process. The short list of 6 candidates all met the brief, was delivered in 3 weeks and resulted in an offer being made in less than 6 weeks. Alasdair understands what good looks like, works quickly and efficiently, keeps in regular contact and is easy to get hold of when required. If you are looking for a recruitment partner that works at pace and delivers exceptional candidates then look no further than Alasdair.

CMA were excellent throughout the whole process. The initial conversations enabled the job search to return roles that matched exactly what I was looking for and each step of the process communicated perfectly. The feedback was also excellent and couldn’t have asked for anything more, they really made the job search so easy at every stage. I highly recommend CMA and Zuzanna to help with anyone’s search for a Finance role that’s perfectly suited to them.

CMA were brilliant with me from start to finish. Very efficient and kept me up to date throughout the whole process albeit a short one. I decided that I needed a new challenge in my accountancy career so I reached out to Jack who promptly took my details and before I knew it we were having a zoom meeting to discuss my options. A week from this I had already had one interview and had another lined up before I got the call less than 24 hours from the interview with the news I had been offered the job. I would recommend CMA to anyone currently in the process of their job search. Complete professional service from start to finish. Once again special thanks to Jack who made the process so easy.

I joined CMA Southampton last Wednesday and applied for a job. Alex James was incredibly helpful and got me an interview on the Friday. She arranged everything and even managed to organise a remote interview at short notice due to my family commitments. I even got offered the job by Monday. Shortest process I have ever gone through. Alex had been very supportive and I am delighted with the service I received.

Rachel Amaning listened to what I wanted out of my next role and found a small number of opportunities that fit well. I was very pleased to not be bombarded with roles that were not of interest to me, but fit my CV. She was always professional and very personable which made working with her very easy. When (on rare occasions) she was not available the rest of the team were friendly and proactive in assisting me. I would recommend CMA for anyone looking for their next role and would happily work with Rachel again in the future.

Zoe immediately stood out as a first class recruiter, she showed genuine interest in the career change I was seeking, always provided honest and strong advise, continuous reliability and high support. She was also very professional but personable and friendly too, which I feel is an important balance to have. The icing on the cake was remaining in contact, checking how my new role was. I have recently returned to Zoe to recruit for our organisation, and yet again Zoe was fantastic ! I would highly recommend CMA as a great recruitment company to anyone.Thank you Zoe.

I applied for a job that was advertised by CMA recruitment. Within the next day I received a call from one of their consultants, Danielle- Jade Neil. She was extremely friendly and professional, I explained I really wanted to progress and look for a new role. Danielle always answered my calls and replied to my e-mails within the day, I have a very positive experience and I'm very thankful for all the hard work from Danielle and CMA recruitment.I had such a brilliant experience with CMA recruitment, Danielle listened to me and asked all the right questions. CMA recruitment really listen and give you the voice you can't always get just on a CV. I would highly recommend them.

I can highly recommend CMA as a recruitment agency, especially Declan Hartigan. I reactivated my account with them in December as my previous FTC was coming to an end, and I made a good connection with Declan. After the Christmas break, he reached out to me on a Friday evening with an opportunity to interview on the following Monday. I was offered the role on Tuesday. This was for an international company who were not advertising their positions, but instead relying on CMW to recruit for them.Declan has been thoroughly professional throughout the process and has kept in touch with me after the move to ensure that I was still confident that I had made the correct decision (I have).Thanks for all of the support.

I have been fortunate enough to work with CMA both as the recruiter and the recruited, and on both sides, I have found the team to be knowledgable, professional and friendly. Most recently, I've worked with Zoe Martin who has placed me in a position that I can't wait to get started in. During the recruitment process, Zoe remained in communication with me and ensured I was fully prepared for interviews. I wouldn't hesitate to work with the CMA team again.

Danielle spent the time to get to know me, what sort of role I was coming from and what I wanted from a new employer. After over 14 years with the same employer, I didn't think it was going to be an easy task. Everything was taken into consideration, from salary to progression prospects, right down to travel time and the home life balance I was so desperate for.A role came up that was ideal for me and Danielle put it straight my way. She helped me through any concerns I had, put my mind at ease and made me believe in myself and my worth.She even helped me through the process of leaving my current employment and the issues that were arising from that situation.Now I am in a job that I am extremely happy with, I work with wonderful people and my home work balance is amazing.She saw me as a person with my own individual needs, not just a case that needed to be dealt with and put away. It may sound dramatic, but Danielle has really changed my life.

I would thoroughly recommend speaking to Alex James and Danielle at CMA Southampton to anyone seeking a career move in finance. They both took the time to fully understand my requisites for a new role and as such were able to match me up with the ideal next step in my career. Two months in and I am loving my new position. Thank you ladies for all the support and advice.

I would highly recommend Zoe Martin who is so good at what she does - as a candidate I found her to be respectful and empathetic, she fully understood how difficult it is when you are looking for a suitable role. Zoe is knowledgeable across all area of the HR function and she provided great advice on how to present my skills and experience to appeal to potential employers.

When looking for possibilities whilst on furlough leave, I had the pleasure of working with Roberto at CMA Recruitment who highlighted a potential opportunity. Roberto is a very genuine, knowledgeable and professional person, being a delight from the day he called me about the position, to when preparing me for a range of interviews, right through to when I was offered the role and wanted some time to think about my options. I was highly privileged to have been represented by Roberto when looking for a job as he was the hardest working, most patient and exemplary recruiter that I have known. I would not hesitate to contact him or CMA again in the future should I need to.

I would highly recommend CMA to anyone I know! Recently, I found myself job searching and applied for a vacancy being advertised by CMA. Quickly, they contacted me to see if I would like any assistance in finding the right job for me. I spoke to someone named Roberto who handled me the whole way through the process. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Roberto and the service he provided me - calling me outside usual working hours and going above and beyond to help. Managed to find me a fantastic opportunity within just one week and I got the job too. So happy to have gone with CMA and very thankful to Roberto for taking so much pride in his work.

CMA really does set apart from other agencies. They make great efforts to see you for who you really are -- rather than just another piece of paper in a box-ticking exercise. This translates to more suitable candidates for employers as well as ideal roles that match the candidate's TRUE profile.My special thanks to Alexandra James and Danielle-Jade Neil for all their support.

I applied for a role advertised and was contacted very quickly by Zoe. I met Zoe and other members of the team to follow up my application and was really impressed by their professionalism and enthusiasm. I really feel that the team worked hard on my behalf and I was very lucky to secure an interview and then the role I had applied for. Zoe was fantastic, so supportive and thorough at every stage of the process. Since I started in my new role, I've had regular contact with Zoe checking in to see how things are going and I have been invited to several events the team have run remotely through lockdown. This has provided further opportunities to develop and network within the profession. Genuinely, can't recommend them highly enough.
Sarah Edwards

I have used CMA several times over many years and each time they have found me the right job for the next stage of my career. They listened to what experience I wanted to gain, assessed this against my skills and found me a job that was a perfect fit for me. This has happened three times so that I have been able to reach a more senior position. I would thoroughly recommend CMA for any finance professional who wants to be treated in a professional manner and taken seriously in their job search by a responsive team. If I ever want to look for a new job in the future I will definitely approach CMA first and possibly only go to CMA as that has worked well in the past.
