"Working with Tom to find two specialised outbound sales experts was great.
Right from our first call, he understood exactly what we needed and hit the ground running.
We had been searching on our own for months with no luck, but Tom quickly filled our pipeline with good candidates.
Thanks to him, we filled both positions. We'd happily team up with Tom again!"
