Owen Reed are an incredibly forward thinking and supportive recruitment firm. Anna has phenomenal experience not only in the work she does but in also understanding the needs of her client. She truly gets to know her client and finds the perfect mutual match. My experience was a breath of fresh air and I came away with a successful placement (in less than a week). Thank you, Anna. Your service has been unrivalled.

Thank you Archie for your knowledge, support and expertise in helping me get a new job. This is the first time I've used Owen Reed and I'll be recommending them from now. Archie gave me excellent advice for interviews and I felt supported every step of the way - she tries to ensure you are at your best. She seems to have knowledge of a lot of law firms in London and that was invaluable. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and she's a great asset to Owen Reed!

Saniha contacted me about a new role, as a mum who recently returned to work I was concerned about applying to move I am currently excited for my new role. Saniha was helpful and kind ensuring the interviews work around my work and home life I never would have changed roles without her support clearly she's very kind as had lots of past placements who are still in touch. Saniha is a great asset to Owen Reed I have always experienced great kindness with the team Jane even helped to place my sister in law 5 years ago when she returned from travelling.

I found the communication from the agency to be unprofessional, impolite and unhelpful, especially considering a member reached out to me first.

Saniha Hairan who is a talent acquisition executive is outstanding. Saniha from the moment I had the good fortune to be connected with this lady has gone over and above to place me in employment and very quickly. Literally the first day I was free to start another job. Thank you so much Owen Reed for having this wonderful human being working for you. Well done Saniha and thank you so much.
