Recruitment consultants that actually listen to what you want rather than shoe horn you into opportunities they have. The whole process was very smooth and quick with regular updates that were helpful and non intrusive. I couldnt recommend Sterland Oliver enough.

Lee was always very professional showing a strong knowledge of and relationship with the client. He was very helpful in coaching and updating me throughout the interview process. I strongly recommend his services to any candidate or employer.

Senior SAP Project Manager

Earlier this year, I was looking to make a career move to seek fresh project management challenges and client / sector combinations after a long spell in a UK SAP Practice. Lee came highly recommended to me as a Recruitment and Placement specialist, having placed a former colleague of mine in to a senior project management position with a leading global software and consultancy supplier. It was clear after my initial conversations with Lee that he had good contacts at a number of leading consulting organisations in the UK and a good understanding of their ongoing resource requirements. Lee was able to secure interviews for me very quickly and, displaying a good understanding of the cultures (and interview tactics!) of those organisations, was able to give me very valuable advice and coaching to ensure that those interviews ran smoothly and lead to successful outcomes. He managed the finalisation process well and was able to secure an attractive offer from my preferred target organisation. Following my acceptance of that offer and career move, Lee has remained in contact with me since to ensure that the onboarding proceeded smoothly. I would not hesitate to use his services again if I were looking to make a further move.

In dealing with Lee, I have found his overall service outstanding. He seemed genuinely concerned with finding the right job for me taking my needs and aspirations into account and ensuring they matched the client to ensure a very good fit. Lee has developed trust with the client and also genuinely seems to care about you ! I can’t recommend Lee highly enough.

As an SAP Professional with many years of experience, calls from recruiters are a regular occurrence. Many are purely speculative – where the recruiter has not done their homework – effectively wasting everyone’s time by employing a scatter gun approach. rnIn contrast, Lee Sterland and his colleagues from Sterland Oliver employ a different and much more effective approach. From a personal perspective, Lee took the time to understand my background and what I was looking for in a new role. He added in all the criteria that was important to me and didn’t waste my time talking to me about roles that would be unsuitable. As such, each time we did communicate, it was concise and to the point.rnOnce we got to a more progressed position, Lee kept me fully informed about dates and times of interviews and always followed up afterwards to let me know how it had gone and what the next steps were. This follow up continued right up until employment started, helping with the onboarding process, and also afterwards to ensure I was settling in.rnTo conclude, what Lee and his colleagues offer is a service that is a cut above what I expected from a recruitment company – very refreshing and welcome.

I’ve known Lee for over eight years now and been placed by him twice. I’ve always found Lee to be a very professional, knowledgeable honest and genuine individual. I’d certainly recommend working with Lee from both an employee and employer perspective.

I have been in contact with Lee since 2006 regarding an opportunity at the company I have subsequently joined, which must make this one of the longest placements Lee has been involved with! Throughout this period, I have always found Lee to be an excellent person to deal with. He took time to understand my situation and aspirations, and was always respectful and never pushy. Lee appears to be well regarded by his clients and builds long term relationships that help to effectively match their requirements with those of his candidates, and builds trust on both sides. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lee – he is both professional and a pleasure to work with.

A few months ago, Lee contacted me about the role I am now in. I was impressed with his knowledge of his client, both organisationally as well as individually. Lee helped me all the way through the recruitment process and always gave me timely feedback at each stage. He also helped to arrange both my interviews on the same day which was a great time-saver, and is further proof of his committment to his candidates. He is professional and at the same time friendly and easy to talk to. I would happily recommend Lee and SterlandOliver to my friends and colleagues.
