Case Studies

Irlam Associates contacted me when I was not actively looking for a new challenge. They presented a role that fit in perfectly with my experience and aspirations. I was given a full overview of Speedy Freight and the planned growth of the business moving forward. From start to finish I felt comfortable that I was being represented by the right team. I didn’t have to ask for updates as I was continually updated with any progress on interviews, feedback and the offer letter. Since starting, I have had regular contact with Irlam Associates to support my transition into the business

Irlam Associates contacted me as they felt my experience matched a General Manager role they were recruiting in Northampton. On paper this wouldn’t have been a position I would have thought suitable however Irlam Associates' understanding of the role meant there was so much more to offer than the job description. They made sure to be transparent with my expectations on salary and benefits. Irlam Associates gave me all the required interview preparation and I interviewed the following week. Within 7 days of the initial call, I had a job offer.

Having worked with Irlam Associates in the past, directly in the same business and now as a supplier, I have consistently been impressed by their attention to detail and can-do attitude. Supporting at short notice on projects, resolving issues as they arise, and delivering a consistently high calibre of people as our business has grown shows their ability to adapt and support our needs. The Irlam Associates team are trusted partners to Aviation Services as we continue to grow across the Cargo and Aviation market.

It’s rare you come across someone as energetic as Will, his energy is infectious and flows into his team and everything he does. He has a positive and proactive approach to recruitment strategy and brings forward great talent, with a truly personal approach. I have had the pleasure of working with Will for a number of years, and he has successfully filled many senior positions across diverse teams and business functions. Will’s ability to seek out individuals who will not only meet the job spec criteria, but also fit into our company culture has made a significant impact. Will is very persuasive and always gets our first choice in post.

Having worked with Will and Irlam Associates for some years now, I can absolutely recommend their service. They work tirelessly to ensure our business needs are met in a timely manner and often go above and beyond. They have become a trusted partner to us in Manchester.
