Testimonials

"I've worked with The Up Group over the last five years on both sides of the table. They have a fantastic network which means that they get the best of both candidates and opportunities. I've met many impressive and interesting people through their network and some of my most interesting opportunities from the last few years have come as a result of the connections they've made. On top of that the team are always very well versed and professional and it's always a pleasure to work with them."

Andy Cockburn – HomeAway, Senior Regional Director (ex-Wigadoo, MyFab, Bain)

"We engaged The Up Group in a search for a marketing director. They really “got” the brief and fielded candidates with not only the right skills but also of a good cultural fit. We ended up in the rare position of having to make a difficult choice between two great people and are very happy with the outcome. The team also understood the difficult line to tread of who does what in the process of selling the role to the chosen candidate and behaved with integrity throughout."

Giles Andrews – Zopa, CEO & Co-Founder

"Finding smart, effective digital leaders who have the ability to make amazing things happen is always hard. But the Up Group makes it look easy. In particular, I have always been impressed with their ability to not only identify and find top-level digital talent but also to find people who fit with your organisation. The Up Group team takes the time to understand your business, your needs and the organisational culture. The result is always a shortlist of fantastic candidates."

Tanya Cordrey – Guardian, Digital Development Director (ex-Zopa & eBay)

"Having used The Up Group a couple of times, we cannot recommend them highly enough. Each member of the team that we have met is always extremely professional and the calibre of candidates is always exceptionally high. We value their rigorous process in really taking the time to understand our business model and stage of business to ensure that we only meet the most appropriate candidates."

Sarah McVittie & Donna Kelly – Dressipi, Co-Founders
