Paul Sherlock was excellent. He quickly understood the brief and supplied a selection of candidates from which we succeeded in making an appointment. This person has been in role for seven months and is an excellent fit.

MERJE is always my preferred choice for risk and compliance recruitment. The breadth of knowledge of candidates is second to none, but most importantly, as they have built a relationship and understanding of me, my team and my way of working over the the long term, MERJE always present me with a choice of people who can genuinely do the role and will be a great cultural fit for my team and organisation. Incredibly easy to work with, clear communicators, they do what they say they will, by when they say they will - making recruitment as smooth as it can possibly be.
