What our clients say:
It’s what you actually do that really matters not just what you say. And what better way to find out about what we do than to listen to what some of our clients and candidates have to say about as. We treat both employers and candidates as the same – they are our partners and without both, we are nothing.
Rob Pheasey – CEO @ Marsden Building Society
The team at UB come highly recommended. Providing specialist support for financial services appointments, we like their breadth in appointment setting which ranges from the C-suite to those looking for their next step in building their career within financial services. At the Marsden we have used UB to support the strengthening of our management team and specialist roles around risk and finance. We regard UB as a trusted partner in supporting our plans for organisational change.
Steve Fletcher – CEO @ Vernon Building Society
I met Claire and Tim in summer 2018 and was immediately impressed with their very down to earth approach. They struck me as a very professional and personal business as opposed to the “corporate” entity approach taken by many recruitment agencies. This very personal approach aligned with our Society’s values and It was clear they wanted to add genuine value to our business. As a smaller business we thankfully don’t have too many requirements but when you do, they tend to be more critical. My experience to date with Ultimate has been first class, they have been responsive and focussed on my needs and were especially good at “cutting to the chase” in only providing me real live candidates rather than a longer list of “unsuitable for roles.
Angela Kos - Finance Director @ Chorley Building Society
The difference with Ultimate Banking is that they really make the time to understand the role they are looking to fill, this is so important for specialist roles within financial services
Joanne McLean - HR Manager @ Teachers Building Society
Teachers Building Society have worked alongside Ultimate Banking for many years now. Their professionalism and attention to detail when it comes to finding the right candidates is second to none – always managing to match not only skills but our culture too. The team go above and beyond at all times and are always available, delivering exceptional customer service at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim and his Team.
Gail Worthington - HR Manager @ Manchester Building Society
We have worked with Tim and Claire at Ultimate Banking on numerous occasions and found that they have a strong understanding of the ongoing challenges faced by the financial services sector and the impact on recruitment. The service received from Ultimate Banking has been exceptional and their fees very reasonable. They will, certainly, be our first choice for any future recruitment.
Dave Johnson - Head of Origination Operations @Strideup
Claire and Tim run a recruitment agency with a difference...they make it their business to really get to know their candidates and clients before they source or look to fill a position. I have had the pleasure of seeing their expertise from both perspectives and it really makes a difference. Their no-nonsense approach to their work clearly brings success and this is why I continue to have them first on my list of recruiters, whatever the role.
Sally Wrigglesworth – Director of Operations @ Tipton & Coseley Building Society
I have worked with Claire and Tim on a number of projects. Their knowledge of the market and Society culture has meant their selection of prospective candidates has led us to recruiting some excellent employees. They are professional and efficient, and I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Anne-Marie Goldsmith – HR Manager @ Newbury Building Society
Ultimate Banking have been our recruitment partner since 2012, helping us fill vacancies right across the business from Branch staff to IT specialists, Finance and Marketing. We have developed a strong working relationship with them and value their knowledge, insight and expertise, and above all their customer service and genuine desire to find the best candidates for our business.
