"I’d like to take a moment to say a huge thank you to Mia at Career hive for all her hard work in helping me find a fantastic new addition to the office team at J.T. Few Plant Hire Ltd.
Mia really took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in the role, and as a result, she presented some truly great candidates. In fact, the quality was so high it made the interview process a real challenge when it came to narrowing it down to just one!
Over the past month, Mia has made the entire recruitment process smooth, efficient, and genuinely a pleasure. I can’t recommend her highly enough she’s been brilliant from start to finish."

Paul's guidance went beyond the ordinary; he went out of his way to ensure I understood the intricacies of my role and the broader company landscape. His ability to break down complex processes into manageable steps and his willingness to patiently address my questions truly set him apart.
Thanks to Paul's insights, I quickly gained a deep understanding of the organization's operations and felt empowered to contribute meaningfully. His leadership style, marked by approachability and a genuine commitment to fostering growth, makes him an exceptional Operation Director.
Paul's influence has been pivotal not only in my acclimatization but also in shaping my professional journey within the company. I have no doubt that he will continue to excel in his role and contribute significantly to the organization's ongoing success."

"I would recommend Mia for a fresh approach to hiring new staff. A clear understanding of our needs, no wasting our time with long lists of barely suitable clients. Along with everything we strive for in our business we simply ask for a friendly, no pressure and non-corporate approach. We like to be listened to and understood. We don't want to be told that your are the best. We gave Mia a simple, but precise requirement and were sent a candidate that ticked every box.
Very efficient first and second interviews arranged. The candidate also seemed to be pleased that they were relying on Mia to find them their next career step.
A win-win for us, the candidate and Mia.
Not only would I recommend Mia, we will go straight to Mia for our next requirement.
First class service start to finish."

"Paul sent me a message about a month ago now and I can safely say he is the most fantastic recruiter I have ever dealt with. He got me an interview for a better position with more opportunities for me to learn and expand my knowledge in this industry.
I went to the interview and smashed it and they offered me the job the same day.
I am so pleased that I have had the pleasure to deal with Paul. I can’t recommend him enough if you need someone to help you find the perfect position. He is extremely attentive and will provide solutions if you are in a tight spot.
If you get the chance to interact with Paul then you’re in for a treat! He will do everything in his power to deal with whatever you need.
Again, I can’t recommend Paul enough, he is brilliant!"
Ashley Brame
Operations Manager
"We recently worked with Mia at Career Hive to help us find a new member of staff, and the whole experience was spot on.
From the start, Mia really took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for (which isn’t always straightforward in our line of work). She didn’t just send over a handful of random CVs — she sent through a steady flow of genuinely relevant candidates, which made a big difference.
We ended up interviewing three strong candidates and have successfully hired one of them, so that speaks for itself.
Mia’s attention to detail, communication, and overall approach made the process smooth and easy from our side. It actually felt like she cared about getting the right fit, not just filling a role.
Would happily work with her again — and probably will."

"I was approached by Paul few weeks back now. He came at the perfect time as at that moment I was looking for a new role. First thing I loved about working with Paul was the process of it all. I wasn't just a number, he treated me as an individual and found a role which best suited me and not what he wanted to fill. In my experiences professionalism like this is hard to come by.
To cut a long story short the role Paul lined up for me was 1 of 5 interviews I had in total and I ended up taking Paul's role. Easily the best decision I have made in my working life. The workplace is absolutely wonderful and I generally love it where I am and cannot wait to see what else happens in the future.
In essence, if your nervous about leaving a role which I was. Please get in touch with Paul, he is the most approachable, professional person I have meet to date in this sector. Contactable always but most importantly understanding.
His done that much of a good job I don't want to speak to him in a professional capacity again :).
Cannot recommend enough and thank you again for all your help."
