Success stories

Paul Lloyd

I would highly recommend Comma to find the best candidates in the market. The standouts for me were the Comma team spending the time to get to know our business, team dynamics and the role before rushing forward with potential candidates. They also researched the sector and market so they could put forward a credible short list of candidates. Comma know the market well and their insights have also helped me to shape future roles and recruitment activity.

Alison McIntyre

Louise supported me in my job search when I relocated to London. Interviewing remotely and subsequently relocating to a new city for a new role was challenging. Louise was by my side supporting and working to get me the best fit the entire time. Her professionalism and genuine interest in the success of the candidates she places touched me. Louise was so supportive in my successful transition from Ireland to the UK and into a job that was a perfect fit! Louise really went above and beyond making sure I was comfortable.

Comma have been my ‘go to’ recruiter for a few years: they’ve placed me in more roles than any other agency by far. I trust their advice completely: they know me, they know comms inside out and they know what will fit for the client. They consistently offer the highest quality, interesting roles and they are a joy to work with.
