“What a refreshing change to work with a recruiter who does know the best people and can hire the best people too. I worked with Lee whilst at my present company and found him to be a recruiter of the highest integrity. He is highly knowledgeable and a definite expert in his field. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone looking for good people.”

"I have worked with Dudley Child ER since its inception two years ago. I have been consistently impressed with their ability to understand the macro and micro requirements of the business and how they translate that knowledge into finding talent.
They have delivered on a number of assignments ranging from volume acquisition of junior management and technical staff through to full search campaigns for board positions. They genuinely understand the requirements of the markets they serve and are always looking for ways to provide additional value to their clients.
Recruiting new people into a business always carries an element of risk and was previously a serious drain on time and resources, using Dudley Child gives me peace of mind that my management time can be spent on other priorities whilst knowing they will deliver the best candidates that the market has to offer."

" I have worked with both Lee Child, Jordan Dudley and Julian Pawson in a number of previous businesses as an interim HR Manager/Director.
Julian assisted me with an Operations Director role in Lancashire and produced a short list where the directors interviewed and tested all four candidates. We employed one of them who remained with that business.
In Sheffield Lee and Jordan assisted me with a Senior Vice President Vacancy, where the Directors and the US owners interviewed the successful candidate within a four week window of first contact to offer; what a turn around time! That individual remained in the business long term.
In my present business at a leading speciality chemical business, the whole team at Dudley Child have assisted me in attracting a Shift Supervisor and a Senior Operations Manager into our business.
The successful candidate for the Shift Supervisor role was a "talent spot" (Dudley Child work proactively and produce “talent spot" lists of high calibre candidates on a regular basis for me ). The Operations Manager vacancy was run as a project and was successfully placed within a 4-6 week period.
I would happily reccomend Dudley Child to any recruiting company within the manufacturing and engineering industry and would happily give further details and a verbal reference to any new customers."

"I met Jordan some three years ago when I was looking for a new position and was impressed with his enthusiasm and above all dedication and understanding or the requirements to be a great recruiter.
Although Jordan was not responsible for placing me at my present company, once I was with them and was aware of the formation of Dudley Child I was very keen to engage with Jordan again.
My present company had suffered from a poor retention of staff and a history of poor placements. As National General Manager I knew I would need to change the current staffing and would continue to have to recruit further staff and it would be vital that this could be done with a company who could understand the very complex and technical nature of this industry.
Over the last two years, the team at Dudley Child have placed the following positions
• Site Managers
• Chemists
• Technicians
• Operators
• Engineers
The quality of the placements has been very impressive and I believe this has gone a long way to help me transform the Brand in my business line into such a strong player it is today across the UK."

"Dudley Child undertook a very tricky recruitment assignment on our behalf. We were looking for a Chemical Process Development Manager with some very specific skills and attributes.
They searched extensively around the country and presented a range of excellent candidates for the role.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any potential employers."

"Finding good candidates for niche positions is not easy, despite recessionary times. However, Dudley Child, has succeeded for us on a number of occasions. With an interest and ability to understand our precise needs, they invariably provide well matched candidates. Most recently, with DC's assistance, we have been able to employ a design engineer with the specialist knowledge needed by our galvanizing equipment manufacturing company."

"The level of service from Dudley Child has been excellent. They are professional, thorough and understand our business needs. We have a number of agencies we use and Dudley child have by far the highest success rate in placing high calibre candidates with us.
Our account manager quickly gained an understanding of our requirements and took the time to understand how we work. The quality of the candidates they have is fantastic, as is their ability to deliver on time.
This has led to us having a long standing relationship with Dudley Child and they are always the first company I contact when I have a recruitment need."
