Client Testimonials...

“We’ve been working with Alyson and the team at Carousel Recruitment for the past 18 months, and in that time, she has played a key role in helping us grow our sales team at Derma Institute, a leading medical aesthetic training academy.
Alyson has successfully helped us recruit five sales professionals across the UK and Canada, as well as two model coordinators to support our expanding business. She has always taken the time to fully understand our brief, ask the right questions, and provide high-quality candidates that align with our needs. The candidates we’ve interviewed have consistently had a strong understanding of our company and the role, which is a testament to Alyson’s thorough approach.
Thanks to her expertise, we’ve made some fantastic hires, and we continue to work with her as we expand our team further. A huge thank you to Alyson and the team at Carousel for their hard work and dedication!”

I am delighted to provide a glowing testimonial for the exceptional services provided by Alyson and her team at Carousel, in supporting us with the Commercial Manager position within our company. From the outset, Alyson’s approach was a remarkable combination of professionalism and efficiency.

Alyson demonstrated a deep understanding of our specific needs and tailored her search accordingly. Her swift and decisive actions throughout the hiring process showcased a keen eye for identifying top-tier talent. What truly set her apart was her willingness to go above and beyond, facilitating a flexible arrangement that allowed us to explore a temp-to-permanent solution to ensure the perfect fit for our team.

The level of support offered by Alyson was outstanding, turning what can often be a complex and time-consuming process into a seamless experience. Her clear communication, attention to detail, and proactive approach ensured that we were always well-informed and confident in the progression of the hiring process.

I wholeheartedly recommend Alyson’s services to any company seeking top talent with a personalised and efficient recruitment process.

As a client, I was impressed with Carole’s exceptional recruiting skills. She demonstrated vast experience and expertise in finding the perfect candidate for the Front of House team I manage. Her communication was outstanding, far from your typical recruiter. Carole’s helpfulness and proficiency made the entire process seamless and successful.

We continue to be absolutely delighted with *****; she has improved the practice tremendously and clients constantly tell us how much they enjoy dealing with her.  All in all, she has been incredibly successful!!
We will continue to highly recommend you to colleagues and contacts should any of them be looking to recruit.

Having worked with Dawn for many years, she knows the type of company we are and the calibre of staff that we are looking for, which saves me a huge amount of time trawling through CVs and on interviews on unsuitable candidates. The same applies to temporary and permanent vacancies that we may have.
I would not go anywhere else for my team vacancies.

Carousel has always been one of our ‘go to’ agencies and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them, and in particular Liz Overall, to other Recruitment Managers.
Collectively they have a wealth of experience, and this is demonstrated in the way they understand their clients’ needs, culture and environment. For us at Kingsley Napley Liz has filled a variety of roles, at all levels, in our business support teams & legal practice areas, and I can trust that every candidate submitted has been properly screened and briefed for the role they are being put forward for.
What really sets Carousel apart is their level of client care; the frequent updates, hard work and honesty that they deliver every time, for every role they work on.

I have been working with Liz for over 5 years now. Understanding, professional, thorough and always with a smile – working with Liz has always been a pleasure. Carousel got really underneath the skin of our business – knowing what makes us tick and really understanding our culture is what has led us to using their services again and again. No role is too big or too small! Throughout the whole recruitment process, it is key to be able to put the trust in the agency that you use, especially as they also represent your brand – I cannot recommend Carousel enough. Thank you Liz and all the team! 🙂

Being introduced to Alyson at Carousel was a great recommendation at the perfect time – just as we were growing and expanding into Europe. Alyson’s innate ability to understand our recruitment requirements meant I could trust her to deliver, and she has done, time and time again. Alyson has been a crucial partner at a time of rapid growth. I would highly recommend both her, and the wider team at Carousel, to any scaling organisations.

From the very start, Carole’s thorough understanding of our role meant that within a few days, we had not only seen some high calibre CVs but we had also recruited an exceptional candidate. We cannot recommend Carole and Carousel highly enough for their professional approach and attention to detail which made the recruitment process easy and totally stress-free.  We would use Carousel again without hesitation for any future recruitment needs.

Super energetic Alyson listens hard to a brief and is great at delivering quality candidates. Finding a recruiter who can cut through CV noise is a godsend, so Alyson is highly recommended.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Carousel Consultancy, and particularly Alyson Emmerson, to help any business with their recruitment requirements. They have this knack of understanding exactly what you are looking for and they manage to find great candidates.

Excellent service from Carole and her team thank you 🙂

Alyson and the team at Carousel has proactively been supporting our recruitment needs over the past year. As an SME and growing business, it is important we have a strong senior team in place and I am happy to say that Carousel has helped us achieve this.

We have a longstanding relationship with Carousel of 20+ years and have always found them to be pleasant and professional. Some of our best staff members were introduced by Carousel and we would recommend their services without any hesitation.

Our company Director always said he never wanted to use recruitment agencies to find staff – but after a year of very little luck using adverts and social media – we met Carole. What can I say… In less than one week she had found us three perfect candidates for three different roles.

Week two and two candidates have already started work with us – and needless to say, my boss has completely changed his mind about recruitment – all thanks to Carole’s enthusiasm, honesty and absolute professionalism.

I would not hesitate to recommend Carole to anyone looking to recruit – not only that, she is a real pleasure to work with.

Having struggled with a multitude of Recruitment Consultants and Agencies locally and nationally, Carole has come into the business and been a pleasure to work with. She appreciates the time constraints I have personally and works with me to provide an excellent service meeting the needs of the business. Carole works hard to understand the specification for the person required and recruits explicitly against this specification which has shown to be effective with an almost immediate success with our initial enquires.

Carole is now the first choice for my recruitment needs.

Sarah is a real pleasure to work with. Sarah has provided me with exceptional support with finding high calibre candidates for both temporary and permanent positions and then filling them too. Passionate, detail oriented with great interpersonal skills, she is an expert in her field and very thorough. I would highly recommend her.

Carousel and Elizabeth Arden (UK) have worked as partners for the past 6 years and I have found them to be extremely helpful and professional. They have a good understanding of their business and culture. Carousel has always been able to meet our needs. They do not operate as a typical recruitment agency; they provide a genuine and friendly service.

I have worked with Liz at Carousel for approximately 15 years and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her. She knows exactly what we need and is quick to deliver. Her integrity and tenacity is second to none!

Carole & Carousel Consultancy are our preferred provider. Carole is always helpful, polite and cheerful and reacts positively and promptly to our requests. It is a very real pleasure working with her and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other HR professionals.

Since working with Carousel we have successfully recruited numerous account handlers for our growing niche broker business. The team at Carousel understands the needs of our business and the type of employee that we are looking for. I look forward to working alongside them in the future.

Understood my business objectives and working to strict timelines delivered a shortlist of correctly profiled candidates.

I have worked with Valerie several times over the past 4 years. She has provided many quality members of staff and is the person I go to first when recruiting.

Our job profiles are understood very well by Carousel’s staff and all candidates sent to us were of a very high calibre. Carousel are very proactive in obtaining references on the candidates we were considering, which were invaluable in making final selections.

Simply the best candidates that are a perfect fit for our organisation.

Grasped our requirements quickly and proposed a number of suitable candidates, one of which was successful.

Dear Carole

I can’t thank you and your team enough for the help and support given to me over the past few months. As soon as I met you all I was made to feel completely at ease and reassured that my problem would soon be over, and it was! Within 1 week I had a new chef who is doing very well.
Can I also give a big thank you to Gabbi for being attentive and keeping me informed every step of the way!
It was a pleasure to work with a recruitment company that displays such professionalism and passion for the work they do. I would highly recommend you all.

Thank you
