The accountancy & finance recruiter of choice for the Southwest of England

As a fast growing business It was important for us to find the right calibre of candidate, one that enjoys the inevitable change that growth brings and at the same time an individual who would fit within the culture of our business. Having advertised directly without success, Dan was quick to understand our requirements and was very specific in the CV’s he sent over for the role which arrived in my inbox within a couple of days. As a result, we were able to offer the role to one of Dan’s candidates and bring to an end a two month search for a suitable candidate.

Trial Balance have been a terrific company to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to recruit for their organisation.

Trial Balance are our go to recruitment consultants. They understand our business, who we are and what we look for in candidates. They provide the friendliest service and I would highly recommend. Thanks as always to the team there.

We have used Trial Balance to place two members of staff in the last 12 months, the quality of the applicants has been good and we are delighted with our new team members who are excellent.

Darnells are happy to endorse Trial Balance an excellent recruitment consultancy. Rob Emsley has sourced us many excellent candidates and is always approachable and dependable, giving advice where needed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob or Trial Balance.

As a recruitment agency, I could not recommend Trial Balance enough. They provide an excellent level of service and take the time to understand the role/s we are recruiting for and how important cultural fit is to us as a business. David has located some fantastic candidates and sourced our Financial Director who has been positively influential in our business. I could not thank him enough for his valuable support to our business.

Hi Dave

Just a quick note to say thank you for the help, support, advice and professionalism I have received from you, Steve and Elle during my job search.

Fortunately this search has now come to an end, and I have accepted the position.

Thank you again, and I am pleased to ask you to remove me from your list of available candidates.

One of the hardest parts of running an accountancy practice is finding quality, qualified and experienced staff with the right fit for my business. Trial Balance managed to find exactly who I was looking for which has really helped my business to grow. They are always a pleasure to deal with, really informative and dealt with the communications between me and the potential employee in a prompt and professional manner. I would be happy to recommend them.

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.

We have been very impressed with the fast and professional service that Trial Balance Consulting have provided us.
This is the first time that we have used their services, they understood our requirements, sent us a small number of suitable candidates CV’s, which enabled us to fill the position within one week.

Thanks for all your help, you will definitely be my first choice for any future recruitment needs.
