Testimonials

Jermaine was very supportive and instructive during the whole process of finding me my next role. He worked professionally and diligently to place me and help me throughout.

There is nothing but good to say about both Jermaine and Elly. So impressed with everything…… they are both extremely personable, transparent, inquisitive, approachable, supportive, fun yet professional all at the same time. I was put forward for a role just before Christmas and even through the festive period was supported throughout the whole process; communication was excellent, guidance was provided and ultimately whilst clearly I played a big part in securing the role, Boost facilitated and enabled this for me!

I had the pleasure of working with Marie at Boost Talent, during my recent contract placement. I can honestly say she has been the best Client Engagement Manager I have ever worked with. Marie is exceptionally friendly, easy to talk to and genuinely cares about both her clients and contractors. She kept the entire process smooth from start to finish. Even the interview felt more like a relaxed, informal chat than a formal assessment. Her professionalism, communication, and personal touch really stood out and made the experience a pleasure. Marie, you are an absolute credit to Boost Talent

Great experience in dealing with Rose Blackburn. Rose’s communication was excellent, both timely and relevant throughout the recruitment process. I would highly recommend Boost Talent whether you’re recruiting, job seeking, or even just entertaining the idea of a career change.

I’ve had a positive experience working with Jermaine and Fahed through a recent recruitment process. They’re fantastic people who supported and guided me from the first call until I signed the contract. So a big thank you to you all. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a recruiter who goes the extra mile.

A big thank you to Rose, I can’t recommend Rose highly enough. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand not just my experience, but my long-term career goals and what I actually wanted out of my next role. Her guidance throughout the process was clear, honest, and incredibly supportive. Thanks to her help, I secured a position that has genuinely transformed my career. It’s opened up opportunities for growth, development, and progression that I hadn’t previously thought possible. Rose was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and keep me motivated, making what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.
