Pros

I have been with Highfield for a year and a half and have nothing but good things to say. From day one the support given to me has been excellent and put me in the best position to be successful. Fully paid for external & internal courses, regular training and discussions, an existing network of both clients and candidates, and on-the-job support and advice, have all contributed to my achievements so far. I have also had support from my line Director on an individual basis, personally assisting me with my workload when on holiday (and away from the office due to bereavement) to ensure the placements I had lined up would be looked after and secured, which shows the dedication and commitment they have to you and to the business. The level of care and effort put in to this was something I think you’d rarely see elsewhere... Sam is very inspirational - in sporting terms, both “on and off the pitch”. Not only as a manager, recruitment expert and mentor, but also as a positive, driven and courageous person. He strikes a good balance of doing what it takes to get the best out of you whilst also being someone you can really get on with and enjoy learning from. As a team we’re given a great environment to work in but we also have really good relationships and friendships within the office. Everyone is friendly helpful and bubbly with good banter which makes it easy to settle in from the start, and an enjoyable place to come in to on a day to day basis. The new office is one of the best around both cosmetically and layout/benefits with table tennis, pool table, darts, kitchen/social area, fresh fruit delivery, private parking, meeting rooms, shower, Yoga on Thursdays and a filter coffee machine! The other thing I would note is that Highfield really do go out of their way to help absolutely everyone bill, and bill well. If you are struggling to hit your targets or finding things difficult you will only been given more help, support, training and guidance to get you on the right track. Some reviews have made out there is high staff turnover - Recruitment is notorious for people coming in and out of the industry but Highfield certainly aren’t one of those companies who “hire & fire”.

Cons

None to note. We have a 'suggestion box' and if there's ever been anything that could be improved upon it's been addressed.

Pros

Atmosphere- I had worked at another recruitment agency before I joined Highfield and now work for another agency and I have to say they have the best atmosphere. It was the perfect mix of banter, friendly, high energy but also you knew what was expected of you. Management- the Directors of the company are really approachable and great role models, sitting amonst the staff. I have only worked in companies where Directors lock themselves in offices and are too far away from the day to day operations. At Highfield they make you feel like you are important and they really care about you and your career. Flexibility- I had a personal issue and I was trusted to work different hours while I needed to whilst being offered support with my workload while I out of the office. Clear career and pay grades- one thing I really liked was how clear the career progression was along with what potential pay you would get at each grade. If you work hard and hit your targets you will progress very quickly. I have been meaning to write a review for a while but haven’t got round to it. I was compelled to when I read some of the reviews that really don’t match with my experience.

Cons

You would have to drive as it is a bit to far from the train station to walk.
