Testimonials from clients

‘Jo Morgan and Rockford Recruitment have provided a service to our organisation for a number of years. They have been, and are, involved in the identification of candidates across the broad range and depth of both operational and functional personnel. They effectively, efficiently and unfailingly manage each process and have been directly responsible for the recruitment of a significant number of our employees.

Jo and her colleagues consistently demonstrate particular skills and attitudes that inspire confidence. Relationships and communications with the executives of our company, initiated by Jo and replicated by her team, enable and ensure that Rockford fully appreciate each role and its key competency and experiential requirements. Also, and especially importantly, they understand the culture of our organisation and the expectations of each recruiting manager.

These skills, attitude and approach ensure that the best and most appropriate candidates are interviewed, the process is efficient, our subsequent staff turnover is minimised and consequently the quality of our service and business is enhanced. This has developed into a reliable, dynamic and mutually beneficial business partnership.

I wholly and unconditionally recommend the services of Rockford Recruitment to any organisation involved in the hospitality industry.’

‘Jo and the team at Rockford Recruitment have been a pleasure to work with over the last 2 1/2 years. Their ability to understand our business and the cultural fit required has definitely been one of their strengths. For senior operational roles I would have no hesitation recommending their personal service. Jo has a great style and approach to dealing with our recruitment requirements and is more consultative which suits me and the our industry. Rockford are part of our Preferred Supplier List because they continue to prove themselves and never rest on their laurels! Thanks for the "great not good" talent you have provided Compass, they are already delivering results!’

‘Rockford Recruitment has supplied BaxterStorey with staff solutions for the last four years. Jo Morgan and her team have worked very hard to get to know our business and its requirements so that they can truly match their candidates with our company style and culture. This results in more successful placements that are essential for a thriving and growing business like BaxterStorey.

I would not hesitate to recommend their recruitment solutions to others.’

‘What sets the Rockford team apart is their ability to 'pull a rabbit out of the hat' and solve recruitment problems that are beyond most agencies. On a number of occasions they have found us perfect candidates for international roles where the requirement for a foreign language, alongside the normal skills and experience, left others in the field completely flat-footed. Their service goes beyond bespoke, it is actually quite unique’

‘I was introduced to Jo and Lindsay at Rockford around a year ago and during the past 12 months they have helped me fill a number of key management roles in both our Leisure and Racing sectors. I have been considerably impressed with the speed and quality of the delivery provided by Rockford and also the manner of their approach which I have always found to be very professional. The level of contact is just right and they have always delivered on what they say they will do.’
