Darryn approached me on LinkedIn regarding a particular role and, since our initial telephone conversation, he has supported me through the entire recruitment process, checking in at every stage – even when there wasn’t any particular news but he knew I’d be wondering about the latest position.

He is approachable, strategic and incredibly encouraging. Not only did Darryn provide invaluable assistance in securing an exciting new role for me, he also helped facilitate this for my assistant too.

I’m so looking forward to starting the next chapter in my career and I can’t recommend Darryn highly enough for helping me make this happen!

Pascalle PalmerBanking Associate - Linklaters

Darryn has been extraordinarily helpful in assisting me with finding a role in London. He kept in constant contact, always made himself available to me and provided valuable advice, which was much appreciated since I am coming from South Africa and do not know much about the UK market. Darryn also has great contacts at law firms. He was able to get swift responses from them and arrange interviews on very short notice because of his strong relationships with the firms. Highly recommended!
