Cathy Buckley is outstanding - her advice is always spot on, and her integrity beyond doubt - securing the right match for both candidate and firm is her priority.

It is all about getting to know you and your career development with Sharon and Cathy - not like some recruitment consultants who will push you towards something that is perhaps not quite right. I have known Sharon for a number of years and she has always focussed on my long term career development. For my recent move both Sharon and Cathy were available out of hours to discuss any concerns and provide pre and post interview support which was invaluable. I would encourage any tax professional to consider discussing their career development with Buckley Consulting for a frank and non-judgemental conversation.

The perfect service from start to finish - very good advice, a wide range of contacts and skillful negotiations - I could not ask for more and would not trust anyone else with my career.

I have been both a candidate and a client for Sharon and find that she has a refreshing approach to recruitment. She provides opportunities and advice that is always targeted at the best conclusion for me - whether it is to move or stay or to hire or not to hire. Sharon is extremely well connected and well liked in the market and takes a genuine interest in the success of my career and our business. I see Sharon as a trusted contact.

Cathy Buckley is that rare thing: a recruitment consultant with integrity, who goes the extra mile for her clients and adds value at every stage of the process. And she's really nice too! I would always use her.

I would like to thank Buckley Consulting LLP who have worked so hard on my behalf. I cannot recall one occasion when you did not do what you said you were going to do and everything was done in a really professional manner. There are not many recruitment businesses out there who actually listen and understand candidates strengths and weaknesses and properly match those to the opportunities. I have dealt with many over the years on both sides of the fence and Buckley Consulting stand out as professional, personable and knowledgeable; a pleasure to do business with.

I found Cathy and Sharon to be astute and thoughtful in imparting their advice and tenacious in pursuing prospective opportunities on my behalf.
Engaging, charming and available always to take a sounding.

I have known Cathy for many years and she has always proved to be the height of discretion and integrity. I was reassured by the amount of time Cathy took to really understand my ambitions and the type of role I was looking for. 
Cathy only put my CV forward to potential employers with my full agreement and only after discussing the role and the culture of the firm with me in great detail. As a result, I only attended interviews for roles that were appropriate and for which I was fully prepared. 
Now, thanks to Cathy, I have the right job in the right firm and I am looking forward to a bright future. 
I would not hesitate in recommending Cathy to anyone looking for a new role in the tax profession. Her knowledge of the tax market is second to none.

Buckley Consulting helped enormously when I was considering a change in my job. Sharon Furbank quickly understood the practicalities of my situation, updated me on the vacancies most relevant to my experience as a Manager, and crucially was there for support throughout the recruitment process. Overall, a great client experience!

Cathy works very hard to identify the right candidate for her client roles. She is someone who thoroughly understands her market, and is well connected in it due to her honesty and integrity. In the future I will be using her to find me reliable staff. I recommend that if you are looking for the right person you do so as well.

A great team - a team that takes great care matching the right candidate for the right job - a pleasure to work with.

I was first recommended to Cathy Buckley by a colleague who Cathy had successfully placed in a mid-tier firm. At the time I was working for a big 4 firm in London but looking to move to a smaller practice where I would have more autonomy and be able to play a part in the development of that practice. Cathy successful placed me with an ideal firm, guiding me through the interview process.
That was 10 years ago, more recently when I was looking to make a move again I naturally contacted Cathy and again she found interesting opportunities and provided excellent guidance.
Throughout my career I have come across many recruitment agents in the role of both candidate and client. Cathy's approach is very different, I have always felt with Cathy that she was genuinely interested in my career and in helping me to make the right choices. Most of all I value her impartial advice. Cathy she has always been available to talk through opportunities, she has an excellent network of contacts and has been able to introduce me to some very interesting potential roles. Cathy is the only recruitment agent that I have ever recommended.

I would endorse the services of Buckley Consulting and Sharon Furbank in particular.  I have known Sharon both personally and professionally for the past 4 years and would recommend her highly.  She impressed me with her professionalism from the outset, she took time to understand my needs, reviewed my curriculum vitae and made some constructive comments.  What I appreciated the most was her constant feedback as to what was happening in the market place and the follow up after each interview.  Changing jobs is never an easy decision and I appreciated having Sharon's support and encouragement.
