Shaunagh Durkin is the best recruiter that I have worked with, my experience had been exceptional from the initial contact till job placement. Foundation is the only agency that gets back to me with true, detailed feedback and appraisal. Sebastian and Shaunagh have been great and I will recommend Foundation Recruitment to anyone within the retail/shopping centre industry.

Shaunagh was great throughout the process, from matching my skill set and salary expectations to the right role to preparing me for each interview both with research tools and preparation sheets. Foundation Recruitment is efficient and professional – listening to my expectations and matching me correctly to roles and always calling back when promised!

Foundation Recruitment has been brilliant advising on new positions; understanding what I’m looking for in a new role and not bombarding me with any and every job that comes past their desk. The shared knowledge within the Foundation Team made sure when an ‘out of the box’ role came up I was considered and called to discuss the opportunity.

Shaunagh has been incredible, not just on assistance with this role, but in the past, consistently running things by me. On The Moor Centre Manager position, she has been excellent; positive and supportive, giving excellent pointers and feedback throughout the process – I couldn’t have done it without her.

Alex has been amazing right from the very first phone call regarding the position. I found Alex to be a breath of fresh air in comparison to other agencies I have dealt with in the past. Her communication from start to finish has been second to none and has continued for weeks into my new position, checking in to see how I’m getting on in my new role – Alex not only cares about her clients, she also cares about the candidates.
