Noelle's expertise in the recruitment field is unparalleled. She navigated the entire process with ease, providing valuable insights and support at every step. Her ability to connect with people and her commitment to finding the right fit make her one of the best recruiters I have ever had the pleasure of working with.
Beyond her professional acumen, Noelle is a truly lovely person. Her warmth, kindness, and positive attitude made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. Even after my placement, Noelle continues to follow up, ensuring I was settling in well and that the role met my expectations. This level of care and attention to detail is rare and greatly appreciated.

I have worked with Kenny a couple of times now and he always goes above and beyond. I was lucky enough to get placed by him for a previous role and I will be using him for my next job search. He keeps good lines of communications and also gives me heads up for roles that may be outside of his scope. Very professional and super friendly, I would always recommend Kenny to help support your job search.
Jack, Recruitment Lead,
Proprietary Trading Firm
I cannot recommend Kenneth enough! From the very first chat, it was clear he is invested in finding the perfect fit for me. He listened carefully to my needs and preferences, and worked tirelessly to find opportunities that matched my skills and aspirations. It was so easy working with Ken throughout the recruitment process - he was always prompt, courteous and respectful.
Anya, Performance and Reward Manager,

I had a fantastic experience working with Noelle from TOM People. She kept me well informed throughout the process, was personable and easy to engage with, and demonstrated genuine care and investment in my journey. Noelle was responsive, transparent, and positioned me strongly for the opportunity at hand. I came away with a very positive impression—not just of Noelle, but of the organisation she was representing. The selection of a recruitment partner speaks volumes about how a business values people, and TOM People is clearly a reflection of that. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Noelle or with anyone at TOM People in the future.
