Interim Management Testimonials

Nikki Cartwright, Resourcing Director, Guinness UDV:

"I met David Jensen at the HR summit and he gave me a call straight after. David was immediately on the doorstep, he took the brief very well and interpreted the brief very well. I received 5 candidates - we could have hired 3. DJ was spot on in interpreting the brief. Also the level of detail in the candidates pack was very thorough. This exceeded my expectations. A big positive."

Since the candidate has been in place I have had at least 3-4 calls to check that everything is going okay. The post transaction activity has been excellent. As for the Interim Manager herself, Lisa is fantastic - she is very flexible, she hit the ground running and has the relevant experience. She is technically very strong and she is building good work relationships. It feels like she has been there a year. I am a "happy bunny".

Don Fairley, Chief Executive The Quantum Partnership:

"Although we had never had any dealings with Brooklands before, in under 24 hours of us e-mailing Brooklands a less than comprehensive brief, the MD had personally visited us to gain a first hand understanding of our business and specific needs, to develop a full assignment specification, and to agree all details. The next morning the first CVs were with us, and later that day an agreed schedule of interviews had been arranged and confirmed. We rated three out of the four candidates interviewed first class to exceptional, and the fourth as satisfactory. I was really very impressed, particularly with Brooklands speed of response, attention to detail, and personal involvement at MD level."

Laurent Fourier, Managing Director Accor S.A:

"I can only say that the service was superb and quick. Not surprisingly, Brooklands has delivered"

Glen Matthews, Interim Manager:

" Companies use Interim Managers because they are fresh, have new ideas and are not afraid of making decisions. They also bring expertise from all the companies they have worked for and sometimes have the opportunity to 'shake things up.' The positive experiences I have had whilst working with Brooklands is that David and his team are working very hard. Communications are excellent within all areas of Brooklands. By far the best firm dealing with Interim Managers."

Amin Somji, Interim Manager:

" Well, what can I say about Brooklands? To put it into words will be to undermine it - You have to experience it ........The interview process went really well and the administration back up is second to none!! David Jensen is a personable, good relationship builder who undoubtedly uses this as a key differentiator in getting assignments - the contacts within the industry is a given for anyone in this business - the relationship will ensure that Brooklands comes to mind first when the need arises!!"

Mr Michael Green, HR Director Lincoln Financial Group:

"I have used Interim Managers in a number of sites through out the company. Most commonly to cover a gap. For example when someone resigns, the time to recruit is often 3-6 months. With the pace of work-life and the associated pressures a company cannot stand still so you need to plug that gap. The value of Interim Managers is the flexible finished article i.e. it takes time to bring on a new recruit - you would employ someone with "the potential to become the finished article". With an Interim Manager you don't have to put the time in to develop them. You get the finished article immediately. They come with a lot of experience. You take the technical ability as read.

As a tool of business, it is flexible; they use knowledge and experience gained from different industries. You can use Interim Managers as "a rapid response issue" when you need things up and running quickly.

My positive experience of working with Brooklands is that the Interim Manager did a very good job. She hit the ground running and she brought a lot of experience with her and a lot of energy. The service received from David Jensen was first class. Quick responsive, professional and thorough".
