Ian Thomas, Group Operations Director – Node4

"I spoke to Chris and John after spotting a role Mallory Partners were advertising on LinkedIn. We arranged a call and, in fact, that first conversation absolutely epitomises the way that Mallory Partners works. They were very easy to chat to, they were open and transparent about the role and the nuances of the employer. They were also genuinely interested in hearing about my experience. In fact throughout, they were fair, pragmatic and proactive – I never felt like I was part of a process, I felt treated as a human being and valued for what I had to offer.

My background was in large corporates, rather than private equity, so their counsel was invaluable but I never felt swayed, or that they had anything other than my best interests at heart. They covered everything I needed them to in the briefings and offered a valuable sounding board at every stage.

I feel that Mallory Partners has built a very strong culture and it comes through the way that every member of the team behaves. There is a sense that their reputation is built on the candidate recommendations they make to their clients (and the roles they recommend to candidates) so they take it seriously and make sure you’re well looked after. They still call regularly to check in on me and it remains a genuine pleasure to keep in touch with them."
