“Working with Arran was an absolute pleasure. He was courteous and respectful of my wishes and was a great communicator throughout the process. This process can be a stressful one, but the Oakstone team (Tristan helped a ton towards the end) made hard conversations easier to have and were truly invested in me as a candidate.

VP Marketing Testimonial

“From the moment Burnice reached out via LinkedIn, I felt she had a genuine interest in me beyond the reason we were even connected (the role). When you added Tristan to the process and Josie for coordination, it was clear that Oakstone saw my value and wanted to treat it respectfully.
At every stage of the process, I could speak openly about my situation, the other recruitment process running concurrently with their role, and what I was looking for in my next step.
Every piece of advice and insight offered was correct and helpful to every interaction with the hiring company. It truly felt as though they cared about my career.
Most recruiters are quick to build a false relationship and let it die faster. Burnice and Tristan were not that.
For anyone who has the pleasure of working with Burnice, it'll be a refreshing change from the norm. I couldn't recommend her (and Oakstone) enough based on her open communication, honesty, and responsiveness.”

J.M. regarding their experience with Senior Consultant Burnice Lange and Divisional Director Tristan Heywood. The candidate joined Hunter.io as VP of Marketing.

“From start to finish, very professional. Always happy to talk things through and give you some real advice that will no doubt benefit your career move. They have a very diplomatic and fair approach to client and candidate, will advise both yourself and the client to make the transition from current employer amicable. Nice to know there are decent recruitment agencies out there, and not just to make a quick buck out of you. Should the situation arise again, I will in doubt use their services from both sides of the fence.”

“Working with George and Tristan has been a pleasure. Both have shown balanced and insightful perspectives on opportunities being considered, and their care and consideration while supporting any preparatory work was particularly appreciated. It is clear the team has strong relationships with its clients, translating to the most reliable and trusted advice, which clearly does not come from a place of bias or self-serving interests. Seeking a new challenge is a significant step, and in a crowded marketplace where superficiality and a lack of personal touch is prevalent, it is reassuring to work with people that are objective and considerate instead.”

“I was first contacted by Ben for an interesting opportunity and, shortly after, a second time by Tristan for another client. Turned out the first opportunity did not work because the client had decided so, but thanks to the excellent advice I received from Tristan, I managed to sign with my new employer. Oakstone really makes a difference when it comes to keeping you posted on the job opportunity, either positively OR not, and helping you close your own deal.”

“Dealing with Oakstone has been quite different from other headhunters/recruiters I have interacted with.  

It is quite clear why your firm has been so successful:  you share insights with prospective candidates that only a trusted advisor would have. Obviously, the Oakstone team is highly regarded and viewed as much more than just as a "recruiter" by your clients/employers.”
