We had the Executive Director Academic Innovation interviews this week and have made an offer to a great candidate and she has accepted. Such great news!
Our sincere thanks to you and the team for helping us put such a successful advertising campaign together. We attracted 39 applicants and took 9 through to longlist discussions, from which we chose 4 for interview.

Kerry Sheehan

Director of People, Inclusion and Organisational Development

We’ve been using Prospectus as our provider of recruitment advertising services since April. They’ve proven themselves to be professional and responsive in all of our requests and we’ve been impressed with the quality of the service they offer. They are an efficient team, consistently delivering recommendations and advice to a high standard and in an unobtrusive, sales-free way. They are sensitive to our priorities and challenges but also bring their industry experience and flair to each task we set them.

Hannah Fraser

HR Advisor: Resourcing and Workforce Resources

The RCOG work with Prospectus as our sole recruitment advertising partner. They provide unparalleled advice for every role and ensure we find appropriate routes to market which are engaging for candidates and creative in style, whilst at all time being conscious on our behalf of keeping costs to a minimum. They act as a partner – not a supplier – and add real value not just to our recruitment activity, but also to our employer brand and our ability to communicate our message. As a result of this partnership, we have solidified our ability to recruit great people, which in turn helps us to develop a thriving culture.

Fernando Caicedo

Associate Director of People

Prospectus has helped reduce our advertising costs significantly by negotiating bulk packages on our behalf. They have also proposed new, innovative advertising solutions which allows us to reach a more passive audience. We can always rely on them for informed and timely advice.

People Systems and Operations Manager

Just to let you know that we’ve offered Trustee roles to three people, as well as a Treasurer.
We’re also inviting a candidate for Chair to meet the rest of the team.
It’s been an inspiring experience to meet a diverse range of people, all keen to support our network. I never expected to be sadly saying no to a couple of individuals, but delighted to be shortly working with more talented people than myself.
Thanks so much to you and your team for your help and support.

Testimonials

We were delighted with the design of the applicant pack which was the first pack of this type that we have used since we rebranded our charity late last year. The pack design really helped to bring our new identity to life and was visually very engaging. The speed with which it was created was impressive, and the process was simple and user friendly. Ultimately it helped us to attract a number of strong candidates to the role and for us to fill the vacancy with an excellent candidate, so it was well worth the additional investment.

Amanda Dubarry

Chief Executive

Just wanted to say thank you for doing such an amazing job on the appointment pack. It’s always a little daunting when you have a new brand to see what the first people to use it come up with, but it looked FANTASTIC!

Sarah Stokes

Head of Brand and Marketing

We worked with Prospectus to design and create our annual and other types of reports. Kamala was a pleasure to work with as she listened carefully to our ideas and vision and worked collaboratively with us to bring our reports to life. She respected our decisions and was faithful to what our organisation is and the message we wanted to convey. Communication was always outstanding, and we were able to stay in constant engagement with her throughout the entire process. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to design and create something so important to our organisation. We 100% recommend Prospectus and Kamala, they are super professional, and the result is always excellent!
