Recommendations

"Challenging times in the Financial services sector call for extra effort from your recruitment specialist. As we move out of the Christmas holiday season and glide inexorably towards the new set of legislation and regulations, isn’t it heartening to think what a “can do attitude” Industry the financial services industry is to work in.

The quality of candidates we are now seeing is unprecedented in my time in recruitment and not just in the fledgling stage, but throughout the Industry, with Independant Financial Advisors wanting and getting the recognition and respect they deserve on a par with Accountants."

David Coates - Managing Director

Top qualities: Personable, Expert, High Integrity

“David approached MAB with a view to supplying FS recruitment services and by showing such initiative and being pro-active he was able to secure a position with our preferred suppliers, no mean feat! I would recommend David for his services given his forthright thinking and ability to seize the opportunity!”

James Torkington - Owner, first2group (business partner)

“David is a charismatic, driven and focused business person who strives to provide a level of service not attainable by most people. It is rare in business to find someone of his calibre so I cannot recommend both David and any service that he provides highly enough. Should you be lucky enough to spend time with David in person, I guarantee it will be an experience that you will never forget and one that I would urge anyone reading this recommendation to do.”
