Alan has gone above and beyond what I expect of an agent. I had only been in Australia for two weeks, and within that time Alan had analysed my skills and successfully placed me in my first contract role – which has been a perfect match both skills wise and culturally. He was also happy to offer advice on my recent migration from his own experience which was incredibly helpful. Alan is very personable, and is in regular contact with the contractors he represents. I would highly recommend him and would definitely work with him again in the future

- Test Analyst at Candidate Tester - Contract (Ben Jenkins)

I have worked with Alan on a number of levels. He placed me at Optus, and then managed any escalations in the Client-Agency relationship. I know his philosophy is one of preventing any issues, but that wasn't always possible during that time, so he did the next best thing and established his own Business to continue that pursuit. He has also worked with me as a hiring manager, and as such has demonstrated a desire to add value through building an understanding of the detailed requirements, and then truly filtering based on those requirements. I love hearing his vision for the recruitment company he has started to build, and can't help believing he will leave no stone unturned in that quest. I can certainly recommend him to hirers and contract/career seekers alike.

- Program Director at ANZ (Jeff Fairbanks)

I have worked with Alan both as a candidate and later as a client. As a candidate he was honest, straight forward and did exactly what he said he would do. Contrary to most recruiters these days he retains the personal touch. As a client Alan leveraged off his high level of experience to quickly come to understand the nature of our organisation, our goals and recruitment requirements. As a result he presented candidates that had been well screened and were a close fit to the roles. I found his honesty combined with this level of professionalism greatly reduced not only the effort associated with recruiting but also improved the cost effectiveness through placing highly qualified and motivated staff that fitted into the organisation and were effective from day one

- Agile Program Manager at Open Universities Australia (Chris Etchells)

I have found Alan to be a reliable and consistent partner during my recent engagements. Alan has responded in a timely manner to all queries and has a personable and energetic approach. I would recommend Alan to others whom require a good quality service and indeed candidates for their given business.

- Telco & Bus professional. Team Manager, Project Management (Mark Young)

I have worked with Alan Howarth for several years as a client. During this time, Alan has worked closely with me to provide resourcing solutions to my business and provide me with gateways to several business opportunities. I have never worked with anyone in recruitment who has such drive and focus in achieving the required solution for his clients. Also, once having placed candidates, he continues to provide on-going support during and beyond the engagement. I recommend Alan to anyone who has resourcing requirements as he will never let you down.
