How do we do it?

Quality Driven

We’re head-hunters and understand that a high service level and attention to the details is what makes successful offers, first time.

You’re in good company

Stanton is by far the most thorough recruitment company I’ve worked with. From Day one we outlined key search requirements for me, and then only targeted businesses and positions that matched my criteria. They we’re regularly in contact providing updates on roles coming through an helping me navigate each stage of the interview process. Without doubt they would be my first call should I be looking for something new in the future.

Daniel

Sprinkler Design Engineer

Dave and the Stanton team took time to get to know me and where I was looking to go with my career, and then made introductions to great job opportunities exactly in-line with what I had described. Not only that, their attention to detail at each stage of the interview process is second to none, and at the offer stage, they worked with me to make sure I was making the best decision for me. I would highly recommend Dave and Stanton Search if you are looking to further your career and find a new job opportunity.

Jamie

Contracts Manager

Dave and the Stanton team are a different class and our go to provider for white-collar talent. They’re professional, took time to get to know us, and then provided a shortlist of candidates – all of which hit the mark. Searches we had open for months they completed in a matter of weeks and worked with our team to coach us to make successful offers first time.

We’ll be using Stanton again and I would highly recommend them to others.
