Client Testimonials

Jacob's Bakery Ltd - Joanne Barnes, HR Officer
Jacobs prides itself as a business on finding talented marketing professionals who can join the business and make a marked difference. We approached Ortus regarding an opening for an interim marketer position within one of our key portfolio's. Ortus reacted quickly and forwarded through a shortlist of appropriate and high calibre candidates for our review. Ortus managed the recruitment process with ease and professionalism and as a result we have been successful in recruiting the role. Their excellent recruitment practise in this instance will result in Ortus receiving further interim marketing briefs from us in the future.

Smart Transfer, part of the alphrya group - Connor Kinear, Marketing Director
We approached Ortus to find a candidate with combined marketing and business development skills to drive forward our product innovations.  Ortus provided an excellent and professional service from start to finish. Interviews were set up within days of our initial meeting and they even provided the facilities to hold the interviews. They put forward candidates who were all exceptionally well qualified and with fantastic experience; most importantly, it was relevant experience and they matched exactly what we were looking for. Not only did Ortus find candidates who had the right skillsets but they went the extra mile to find candidates that would also fit well with our company ethos. The candidate we chose has now gone on to produce some fantastic results for our company and we will undoubtedly use Ortus again in the future.

SABMiller Plc – Jennifer Candee, Head of Talent Acquisition
I have been working with Ortus for the past year and their assistance for us has been second to none, I do not say this lightly as I'm typically reticent to work with consultancies since we brought our headhunting in house. I've worked very closely with Ortus and rate them very highly in their recruitment for marketing FMCG candidates; those that they’ve placed have been top calibre. Line managers have also rated their candidates and working relationship with them to be top notch.

Reed Business Information - Natalie Scott, Recruitment Specialist
The account managers we have at Ortus make an effort to understand what we need everytime they recruit for us - this enables them to effectively resource and build a good working relationship with us. I have used Ortus in my previous companies and the fact I’m still working with them is a testament to how good they are.

One of the world's leading financial services companies - Head of Internal Communications
I was particularly impressed that you didn't send me millions of mediocre CVs, as has happened to me in the past, but just the one top-notch one. I really appreciated that.

Nestle - Kate Tindale, Recruitment Specialist
As a business Nestle has very stringent recruitment standards so when working on specialist roles such as the one we gave to Ortus we require only the highest calibre of candidate. Ortus reacted quickly to the urgent requirement for a short term contractor. The role itself was not within their usual area of specialism however they helped us find a great candidate who matched everything we'd requested on our specification, and was available to start at short notice. We would feel confident in using Ortus again for our interim marketing requirements.

Danone - Liz Ellis, HR Director
Ortus recently took on at very short notice an assignment to find for Danone UK a market researcher. Within the space of a day of briefing out we had an excellent short list of candidates from which we were able to target 4 individuals for interview. That individual then started with us a week after our original briefing.
Not only was the speed of response excellent but also the level of service, personal contact and knowledge of the consultant. I would definitely use Ortus again for any future assignments of this nature.

BBC Worldwide - Alix Tidmarsh, Director, Intellectual Property Management
Ortus Interim Solutions impressed me from our first conversation with their understanding of the marketplace and their straight forward pragmatic and consultative approach. Their speed and efficiency was good, producing high calibre candidates that stood out from the rest and suited my needs. I will be calling Ortus Interim Solutions for my future interim recruitment needs.

MORE TH>N - Jon Sellors, External Communications Manager
Ortus was one of the few agencies we have used that took the time to come and visit our offices. This really helped them get a clearer understanding of the role and in particular of the type of character that would fit well into our team. They've found us some excellent candidates and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.

Sealy UK - Kate Bancroft, HR Manager
The service provided by Ortus Interim Solutions was extremely professional. The level of service and the personal contact from the consultants was excellent throughout the whole recruitment process.

uSwitch.com - Amy Watson, PR Manager
Ortus has introduced me to some really exceptional candidates. As well as answering my brief both quickly and accurately, the entire process was professional, efficient and hassle-free. I will definitely continue to consult with the team on all my recruitment needs going forward.

BBC – Andrea Daniels, Research Manager
Thanks to Ortus for providing me with the perfect candidate. Ortus really listened to what we needed and provided me with not only a well suited, but positive and timely candidate. Easily the best service I've received from a recruitment agency and have recommended to others.

EMAP Business International - Helen Cherry, Senior Marketing Executive
Ortus Interim Solutions worked with exceptional professionalism, providing me with an impressive interim service. I was particularly pleased with their speed and understanding of my marketing requirements. I look forward to working with them again and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

I wanted to convey how much I enjoyed working with Ortus in looking for a new role. In my times in dealing with Ortus, you have always demonstrated sincerity and professionalism. I have worked with several agencies before and it is not always the case that one feels as though an agent has the candidate's interests at heart. It has been a pleasure working with Ortus and I appreciate your excellent support in my career.

I was impressed by the way the Ortus team worked together to find a PR position for me. Following countless phone calls and useful advice on their part I landed a great contract with a top five UK financial services organisation. Ortus made all the difference.

This is an organisation that provides an excellent way to find recruitment solutions instead of recruitment problems. My experience of them is that they always remain honest and professional throughout. Going forwards this helps considerably to make their approach a valuable one for all the participants.
