What Our Candidate's Say
I worked with Lucy for a few years now in terms of looking for roles and I would definitely say she is one of the best in the business. She is always on the other end of the phone ready for a chat and has been extremely helpful and accommodating in helping me find the right role quickly.
From the first day of speaking to her, she instantly got what I was looking for from an agency and only put me forward to agencies that would benefit both parties. After securing my currently role here at Field Day Lucy has been in touch since to make sure I’m enjoying the role. A breath of fresh air to work with and would definitely recommend to anyone.
Josh Bailes
Senior Account Manager at Field Day LondonI worked with Lucy for the first time to secure my latest role and would wholeheartedly recommend her to other people looking for that next opportunity. She immediately understood what I was looking for, and suggested only agencies that would fit that criteria. During the interview process and after I secured the role, and a week later as a follow up, Lucy was constantly in touch to share feedback, next steps and ask how everything was going. Extremely professional and I look forward to working with her again in the future.
“Dominic Pain
Senior Account Manager at Field Day LondonLucy did an excellent job placing me in my new role. She really listened to the type of work and style of agency I was looking for. She was very honest and understanding, whilst also taking my own thoughts into consideration. Lucy would make sure she was available to speak to at anytime and even checks in every now and then to see how I am getting on in my new role. A great experience working with Lucy.
“Zoe Leversedge
Account Director iD ExperientialRecruitment Agency Theme was the best investment I ever made. Best. Product. Ever! We were treated like royalty.
“Micah Steytler
Account Manager at Proximity WorldwideLucy placed me in my current role and definitely had my interests at heart. She was keen to understand what my goals were and the sort of career path and agency culture I was interested in. She followed up with me often to ensure I was enjoying the role, and also sent me flowers when I was offered a permanent position! Would recommend Lucy for her end-to-end management of the process and caring approach.
“Annabel Kulich
Account Director at Twelve AgencyWhat Our Clients Say
Lucy is a highly skilled recruiter, Her self-founded business Rockinroles breaks the mould of traditional recruitment and Lucy works alongside us as a partner and consultant during the recruitment process. Quality over quantity, the candidates that we see via rock in Roles are well briefed and usually bang on in terms of what we are looking for. It’s always a pleasure and reassurance to know that when a recruitment brief comes up we have such a talented partner to turn to.
“Cathy Henderson
Head of talent - iD ExperientialLucy has all the talents that you’d expect from a top notch recruiter – she’s fast, she’s efficient, she’s smart and she gets what you’re looking for by having a keen understanding of the industry. Lucy seems to always grasp really quickly the specific needs of a role and knows instinctively which candidates would be best suited. That said, what makes Lucy completely unique is the calibre of candidate she seems to attract. I put this down to her personality. Lucy is the kind of person that great candidates seem to gravitate towards – and that is an innate quality that can’t be learnt nor matched by her peers.
“Gillian Arthur
Managing Partner – Field Day London (Havas)Lucy has been a fantastic support to Sense and an absolute pleasure to work with. She always goes above and beyond to find the right candidate for the role and does so with the upmost professionalism. I highly recommend anyone with a recruitment need to get in touch with Lucy. You won’t be disappointed!
“Sally McLaren
Director at Sense – Leading Brand Experience agency based in London and New YorkHaving worked with Lucy for over three years now, she and her company come highly recommended. She gets to know both the agency as well as the individual team / position needs and always (and importantly only) puts forward candidates who are right for the job. Sentiment to this, we have 2 people here for over a year who have been put forward from her and a recent addition to the team too.
“Karina Sobczyk
MicrosoftI have worked with Lucy both as a job seeker, and whilst seeking to employ candidates at various level. Lucy consistently demonstrates an excellent understanding of the role in hand. She is great at pinpointing candidate’s strengths and offering up interesting roles that effectively develop careers. I also believe she goes above and beyond in helping to prepare her candidates for interviews – her understanding of what the relevant employer is looking for is second to none. She has a great manner and all I hear is positive feedback on her from candidates too! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and switched on recruiter.
“Nathan Palmer
Senior Account Director at Proximity WorldwideLucy & I have had the pleasure of working with each other as both candidate and client. On both sides of the fence, her thoughtful and caring approach has brought success. Bright, right-on candidates who I click with, and job opportunities (for me) that have felt tailor-made. And it’s all because she really makes the effort to get to know you – developing an intuition that’s become invaluable to me when hiring, and looking to be hired myself.
