Values

Having known Nicola as a client, I approached her when I was looking for interim work myself, as well as contacting other agencies. I was impressed by Nicola’s personal touch, creating an opportunity from my experience. This is only possible when you have a good relationship with client and interim professional and have an understanding of the needs of both. Nicola followed up in the first days and weeks to ensure I was settled in and continues to call or meet to check up on the assignment. I have already recommended her to other finance professionals seeking interim placements in the NHS and organisations seeking interims.

Interim Professionals have been my agent for more than 3 years. During this time Giles has placed me in a number of enjoyable and appropriate roles, promptly finding me new contracts. He has always been on the end of the phone if had any queries. The payment process is simple and invoices are turned around quickly (significantly quicker than any of the agencies I used previously.) Interim Professionals is a family run business and this is evident in their personal yet professional approach. Long may my professional relationship with Interim Professionals continue.

A few months ago I took early retirement after 36 years in the NHS. After 4 months I really wanted to go back to work. Interim Professionals was recommended by an old colleague. The first job I was put forward for I got and that was thanks to Giles who ensured I understood the role and had all the background I needed. I’ve never been an interim and it was scary. However Giles and his team are responsive, efficient, caring, friendly and extremely supportive. I cannot recommend Interim Professionals enough.

I have used Interim Professionals on several occasions and have always found them to be extremely responsive. Giles Farmer their MD, is particularly attentive and takes the time to dig into the role and to understand that the type of individual that will fit with your organisation. I was impressed by his questioning of “what kind of fit do you want in your organisation, someone challenging, or motivating and engaging, someone that will make hard decisions and hold people to account or someone that will develop you in house leadership.

"Through spending time talking to the candidates they were able to gain an understanding of the expectations of the role, and I could be sure that all those who were shortlisted for interview were keen to be appointed and were fully briefed as to what would be required of them.  I was delighted with the outcome of the process."

Interim Professionals helped us identify an interim financial planner to support our SOC and OBC at THH. Nicola understood the brief and deadlines we were working to and supplied us with an excellent shortlist, we appointed a very strong candidate who has exceeded expectations. I would recommend Interim Professionals for their responsiveness, knowledge of candidates and ability to find the right person under pressure.
