Hear from our customers

I would just like to say a massive thank you for supplying such outstanding candidates. I can't fault a single person that you have sent me. Especially the two Site managers. Chris at RAF Alconbury who sent me a site report for the week on a Saturday without even asking me. He could teach my guys a thing or two. Also, I would like to thank Charlotte who sources the candidates for me, I know I don't always give you much notice, but you still manage to send the best. So, thank you, the pair of you are a credit to Barker Ross, and they should be thankful that they have you two working for them.

"We have been working with Barker Ross for several years, in that time we have consistently been supplied with an excellent range of pre-selected staff. They have always made the time to properly understand our specific requirements, not only with regards to short term placements, but also with permanent Managerial recruits".

Just thought I would send you a quick email to say how impressed I have been with your level of service over the last month or so. You have always provided me with outstanding operatives even with the short notice that I have provided you with.

Considering I don't always explain myself very well in what I need, you have always gone that extra mile by always emailing or phoning me to confirm my requirements. You have never let me down and I cant fault you for that.

Your in constant contact to make sure I am happy with the level of service that you are providing and its these little things that make you stand out from the crowd, and I will always only use yourself and Barker Ross from now on as I know I'm in safe hands. You are a credit to Barker Ross and you should be proud of what you have done in the short space of time you have been with the company.
