With a particular inclination for the no nonsense matching of employer and candidate requirements, it’s helped us to partner with the largest portfolio of skilled finance professionals in our marketplace.
What people are saying about us
I have already expressed, not only to my current employer, how efficient your company is. Your constant contact (Steve and David), updates and willingness to talk and advise me during my term of unemployment was excellent. Trial Balance in my opinion are the best Financial Recruitment Agency in South West and Steve and David are a credit to you.
Dear Rob,
I am writing to thank you for your recent assistance in securing two job offers from two very reputable accounting firms.
From the moment I made first contact you have worked hard to help me secure a position that fulfils my goals. I was particularly impressed with the effort you made to both secure interviews for me swiftly and maintain strong contact to keep me informed during the process. This has not always been my experience with recruitment agencies, but I have felt that Trial Balance Consulting have had both your client’s and my best interests in mind at all times.
I would not hesitate to recommend your services and should I ever need your services in the future, I will not look beyond contacting yourselves.
I wish you every future success.
Our company has worked with Alex and his team at Trial Balance for a number of years now on various assignments and have always received a highly professional service from them. I have always found Alex to be a friendly, approachable and confident recruiter with a swift and professional manner. Alex's service are well recommended, as he has built up one the most favourably regarded specialist recruitment agencies in Cornwall.
We were looking to replace a valued employee in a crucial role leaving big shoes to fill and Trial Balance exceeded expectations. Within 24 hours we were provided with a shortlist of candidates and we interviewed and recruited a smashing candidate within 4 days from when we first made contact. The team listened to our brief and provided quality candidates for consideration. Communication from Elle was exemplary; efficient and friendly and a pleasure to deal with. We would be pleased to endorse Trial Balance; recruitment fees can be a bitter pill for SMEs to swallow but Trial Balance deserve every penny!
I found Trial Balance to be by far the best recruitment agency that I have worked with. They not only kept me up to date with new opportunities as they arose, but also offered great advice that made the search for the right role extremely easy. Compared to other recruiters I used previously in London, Trial Balance were miles ahead in terms of service and communication. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
At Trucksmith it’s important that we always have the right staff in the right places. Whilst we are happy to use our own knowledge, experience and contacts to source our senior engineers and sales staff, we rely on Trial Balance’s expertise when it comes to filling our accountancy and finance roles. They’re both friendly yet professional and always understand exactly what we’re looking for. Trial Balance are an extension of our recruitment team.
We recently lost our financial supervisor, who has taken up a placement with another company. Our accountants recommended that we contacted Trial Balance for interim support. I phoned up and spoke to Steve, who dealt with my enquiry in a professional, timely manner. After a short while I received a CV from a candidate and met with them the following day. The candidate came with plenty of experience and was ideal for the role. I informed Trial Balance that I would like the candidate to start with us and they were able to start the following week. Based on my experience of Trial Balance, I would happily recommend their services.
We were fortunate enough to have Trial Balance recommended to us which saved us a lot of time and expense in filling our vacancy with a very well-matched candidate. I was immediately impressed when the person who picked up the telephone to my initial enquiry was able to answer all of my questions and set the wheels in motion, and customer service from that point onwards has been exemplary. We will be sure to go straight to Trial Balance next time we are recruiting in accountancy.
Trial Balance have been key to us during our recruitment campaign. Carly was very helpful and professional and helped to place an excellent candidate with us. The service we received was excellent and we hope to be using them again very shortly!
We recently contacted Trial Balance Consulting after being let down by another agency. Within a few hours they had located a strong candidate ready to start straightaway. Excellent service received from Trial Balance Consulting, I would recommend them to anyone.
