As one of the most prevalent dedicated accountancy recruiters in the Southwest and South Wales, our reputation has been built on referral and recommendation.
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
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!
The team at Trial Balance acted really quickly upon instruction, I had a really good standard of suitable candidates CV’s across my desk within a couple of days and had interviews set up within a week. Elle was great to deal with, she understood what we wanted and made sure we had the right level of contact and the right number of CV’s across my desk, great after sales service as well.
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.
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.
I’ve always found the team at Trial Balance to be friendly, honest and efficient. I have always received great service, even on some of the trickier vacancies that we have had. Would definitely recommend their services.
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 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.
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.
Rob is great to work with and is not one to shy away from a difficult to fill role. Rob delivers quality over quantity, which saves time in the recruitment process. All of my interactions with Rob have been professional, timely and honest. Rob is also surrounded by a great team, who have always been available and fully briefed should Rob be on holiday. It’s great to work with an organisation so tied up and professional.
2018 has been a busy year for us at PKF Francis Clark, and Rob has contributed positively to our hiring efforts. I would not hesitate to recommend Rob as a recruitment partner to your organisation.
