My recruitment experience with Josh has been really good! He has been a great help, from the first call, talking me through the role and company structure all the way to my start date. He kept me informed throughout the whole process and was always happy to jump on a call to explain what was happening. Josh has been a great help and I will happily send others his way in the future. It's been a rewarding experience from applying to starting and I'm excited to see where this role takes me

Rebecca

On a personal note I’d like to say thank you to Sam for how quick and painless this process has been. I’ve never dealt with a HR department so on the ball!’ 

Ceri

MEP Engineer

The role at JNB came about when I was contacted by internal recruiter Billy, who is also a veteran, and had found my profile online. He was recruiting a Buyer and because of his experience and knowledge, understood how my CV leant itself to this role. Knowing the process was being overseen by someone who understood my experience as a veteran really helped. Billy was able to read my CV and quickly pick up on why I would be a good fit but also has the industry knowledge to be able to explain that to the hiring managers. Having someone advocating for you in that way was incredible helpful, and also in my experience of job-hunting, unique to JN Bentley.

Jamie

Buyer

Lauren’s professionalism, attention to detail and communication were outstanding. It created a seamless and efficient transition from New Zealand to the United Kingdom. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a high-quality recruiter. Genuinely made the transition a breeze and continued to help even after I started.

Shaun

Project Leader

I really enjoyed my interview with my recruiters, especially Rebecca who made me feel at ease and comfortable throughout. She gave me a thorough insight to what Bentley offer and where it could potentially take me career wise. The interview itself was clear and the questions were fair. Rebecca has been there since for me with any follow up questions I've had. All in all a great recruitment process.

Chris

General Operative

Career fairs, assessment centres and the recruitment process for any job can be really daunting, especially for students and recent graduates. However, Mary is so friendly and approachable, making everyone feel more at ease. She is very quick to answer any queries and settle any concerns you may have. She's the perfect first point of contact.

Sophie

Graduate Process Engineer

My recruitment process headed by Jeanette Smith was extremely efficient and smooth. Jeanette gave clear instructions regarding how the process works, what was required from me and always maintained clear and open communication lines. Jeanette responded to any questions in a timely manner and always maintained a professional, helpful, and friendly demeanour. It was a pleasure working with Jeanette. The recruitment process provided me with a great first impression of JNB.
