We hired Colin as we were looking from someone a bit different to the normal recruitment consultant. We were creating a new team and needed the best possible people in it. Colin went to the market and shook it right up for us, profiling companies where we might want to look for people as well as creating lists of potential candidates, pre-interviewing them for us and then recommending who he thought were the people most suited for us. Come interview day Colin provided 4 candidates all of whom were suitable for the job and we would have employed. We chose one and are blown away with him.

Resilient are a very professional search & selection business with a through and professional recruitment process. Its been an absolute pleasure dealing with them. Colin's friendly, intelligence and his knowledge of the UK and International market is excellent as well as his understanding of market leading technologies. They are the best choice of any consultancy to get in touch with for Technical / Fintech, Asset / Auto / Credit / Lease Finance appointments.

Resilient are a recruitment partner to Sopra Banking, I was approached about an appointment they were looking to make. A role I had not done before but they felt that given my past that my skills were perfect for. They were right. The role is absolutely what I had been craving for. We spent a lot of time talking, about my experience and about the role. Their attention to detail was awesome. They took me along the path towards the role, preparing me, helping me present my strengths and weakness appropriately. I was fully prepared for the interview and of course landed the role. Colin is very professional, straight to the point, and willing to invest time in people he believes in. He has become a good friend, someone I can ask advice from & trust. Now I look forward to working with him on the other side.

A very rare breed of recruiter. Extremely personable, an expert in their field and always willing to go above and beyond to help you achieve your objectives. Always looking to find a win/win scenario and I have no hesitation in recommending his services. Thank you I look forward to working with you again very soon.

I selected Resilient Management Solutions when we were expanding our sales leadership in the UK. Colin provided a very professional, detailed and efficient recruiting service to us. RMS created a full market map, a longlist and shortlist and they assisted in the paring process to identify the top six candidates. Although we only had one opening we ended up hiring two people as we where that impressed by the relevance and accuracy of the individuals that we met. Colin and his team setup all meeting arrangements for our SMT to fly in and asses the shortlist over two busy days. In addition Colin offered consultation on setting up a subsidiary in the UK and was a tremendous resource while creating our first UK and Asia contracts. I look forward to working with Colin again!

As a contractor I was surprised by the refreshing attitude and working ethos displayed by Colin. This is the first time in 15 years of contracting I felt I could really trust the recruitment agency/recruiter. His up front no nonesense approach made me feel that more of a partner than an asset. I was kept appraised of what was going on at all times. (Without Prompting). It's a pity more recruiters do not behave in this way.

It was due to Colin that I was placed with Imtech ICT, his skills and perseverance were exceptional and I found it very easy to deal with him and Resilient Management Solutions.

I would recommend RMS to anyone, if they phone you out of the blue it is for a genuine reason and for me it was very worthwhile.

RMS have been very supportive to us with a high level of service and the understanding of our needs, he have been a good partner with the comprehensive support for us as a foreigner company, we have done three placements with them , Colin will be a first choice for our future placements.

I have had a big recruitment drive of my sales force, an increase of 100% was required. Colin has delivered not only the numbers but the quality and with the highest ratio of offers made to appointments that I ever experienced. The proffessionalism, enthusiasm, commitment, drive and creativity from Colin has made him an invaluable partner within my sales operation. Colin goes beyond the normal boundaries and through his extensive network delivers additional proposals and external contacts that will help the business grow. Colin is not just an expert recruiter, he is a forward thinking individual who thinks outside the box and has a clear startegy on how he will deliver results and help business grow with the right people. If you want the "Best in Class" people then look no further than Colin.

Colin is extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. Working with Colin gave me the reassurance that the 'job would get done' Colin kept in touch throughout the process and always gave his honest opinion when it came to decision making with candidates.

Colin is personable and clearly very driven to succeed, whilst ensuring his customer is fully satisfied with the service. I would highly recommend Colin and his team if you are looking for an experienced head hunter. I would happily work with Colin in the future should the opportunity arise.

A very detailed, knowledgable and professional business in the field of recruiting. Colin delivered on time with the right pool of candidate..

I worked with Resilient in a job transition in December 2014. Resilient guided me through all the process and he was very professional, focused, giving all support needed to be successful with the transition and he was always available for any question or doubt. Every detail was important for Colin, and this made all the difference for me and my family, making me feel confident and comfortable with the change. I highly recommend working with Colin.

I was Headhunted for a professional position through Colin's recruitment consultancy RMS and was thoroughly amazed by the meticulous 'cradle to grave' approach he and his team took to assisting me. They clearly know the recruitment business inside out and provided solid advice throughout. I really appreciate the many hours Colin invested in me and the fact that he was always accessible for advice and to answer all of my numerous questions. I absolutely recommend Colin.

RMS constantly differentiated themselves from the other recruitment companies. They took the time to understand why I was looking for work, what my unique skills are and how best to match them with the right opportunity. As a result I am working for a company (charity actually) that I would not have thought about before. I enjoy the day to day challenges and relish the development opportunities.

I would and have recommended Colin's services to others...thanks for the help Colin.

I have no hesitation in providing this recommendation for Colin, who has demonstrated the superior professional skills required to provide an outstanding recruitment service. Colin's knowledge of the sector and ability to balance the demands of client and candidate has been exceptional and I look forward to an on-going business relationship.

A creative & ambitious leader but also an inspiring team player. He was fantastic to work with.
