Ashley Wang

Ashley Wang

Chief Finance and Operations Officer at Overseas Development Institute
Michael and I have worked together for many years. He assisted me in getting a Director of Finance role in a high-profile charity. At the outset, Michael took the time to understand my career aspiration. He then gave his independent assessment of how the role fitted into my career path which I found helpful. He was able to provide me with insights on the organisation so I could be fully prepared. During the interview process, he was very responsive in arranging the interviews, checking in with me and seeking feedback from the employer so I could prepare for the next stage.  Michael is different from the other recruiters I work with. He is patient and lets you take control of the pace of your job search.

Chief Financial Officer at Tate
I have known and worked with Michael for the last 5 years. He has recruited several crucial roles for me at 2 different organisations. He is easy to work with and takes the time to work with and develop a trusted two-way relationship with his clients. Michael has always taken the time to understand the job description in detail, the organisation as well as the personality traits required. As a result, the candidates have always been well selected and interviewed before being provided for shortlisting, he ensures that they would fit into the culture and environment, as well as work well with me. He doesn’t just focus on their technical ability or suggest candidates simply to bulk up the numbers.

Chief Financial Officer at CILEX
Michael is the critical friend you need when recruiting or job hunting. He will suggest alternatives when your expectations of the output vs value of a role are too high or your personal aspirations are too low. He willingly shares feedback, pointing out strengths and challenges of roles, candidates and employers. I have asked the impossible of Michael and he has managed my expectations in a thoughtful and constructive manner. He is the first person I call when I'm looking for a candidate or looking to move roles. I am now a full time employee at that target organisation, and I genuinely believe that Michael gave me an edge over other candidates. It has been a pleasure to work with him and I will be keeping in touch for whatever comes next.
