We had a great experience working with Inci at Sewell Wallis. She took the time to really understand what we were looking for, was very responsive, and quickly found us two excellent candidates.

Laura SelbyCo-CEO

I just wanted to say how impressed I've been with the service from Sewell Wallis, and Inci's communication throughout the process. It's been a pleasure working with them, and I'll definitely be keeping in touch regarding any future roles.

Laura CollinsTalent Acquisition Manager

Sue recently placed me in a senior HR role. I’d never worked with Sue before this and she was fantastic from the outset. After our first call, I knew she’d work hard to get me the role. Sue was engaging, informative, truthful, supportive and really built my confidence going into interviews. I’ve never worked with a recruiter who genuinely cares about their candidates as much as her.

Jodie TennantHR Manager

I worked with Sewell Wallis when I finished my ACA and wanted to move on from Deloitte. Lawrie scheduled a meeting to discuss what I was actually looking for in a job and he tailored my job search around my wants and needs. Lawrie helped me secure my next role - the whole process was very successful. Thank you for all the help!

Dylan CollierFinancial Accountant

A professional yet personable experience from start to finish with Sewell Wallis. I worked with Inci and she helped me navigate the process with ease. I hadn't been in the job market for nearly 20 years, and she gave me friendly tips and advice, calling me before and after each interview and supporting me through my notice period. I would definitely recommend!
