Rob exceeded my expectations at every stage of the process and really took the time to understand what was important to me in a role. As someone new to the area his expertise and wide range of contacts were invaluable. Rob was always available to answer my queries and kept me up to date at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending his professional and personable service.

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 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.

Trial Balance have been instrumental to our Finance team, recruiting all the current members. Elle is very approachable and always cheerful on the phone, she asks the right questions about the role and requirements and gets the right fit for the vacancy.

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 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.

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.

We have employed three people through Trial Balance Consulting all of whom fitted in well with our office.
Alex took time to listen to our requirements, was in contact throughout interviews, and followed up after employment to ensure we were happy with our choice.
Thank you.

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.
