About working with us

Will Townsend at ESP is excellent at sourcing candidates in very specialist areas, which we may otherwise not have found. He is open and honest, service oriented and prompt in any correspondence – I recommend Will and ESP wholeheartedly.

Your contractor has been a fantastic support to the IT department over the past weeks and we can highly recommend him for any future contracts you arrange on his behalf.

You have been an amazing help and I can’t thank you enough!

Thank you for all of your assistance with this vacancy, it was a positive experience for us and we are grateful for your professional support throughout.

I have known William for many years. He was my first call when I began looking for a new job and matched me up with a great employer within a few weeks. He stayed in touch throughout the recruitment process and followed up after I began my new job to see how I was settling in. If you work in this area of education and are looking to recruit or move on from your current job this is the place to start.

William is both friendly and professional. Always prepared to listen and advise but never pushy. He found me a job doing what I have always wanted to do. Thank you!

Thank you for your help with this, you certainly do have some contacts and always find someone for us.

I am delighted with the service that ESP has provided, in particular Nick Sion, who has worked hard to secure me a position at a brilliant school in London. He has kept in touch with me at all stages of the recruitment process and has been extremely helpful to me.

I was contacted by ESP regarding a potential contract and from the first phone call over a year ago, to our continued communications, they have always been courteous, professional, and informative.  Nick who is one of the Senior Consultants was especially helpful when organising my CV, paperwork and interviews before I started. He has also negotiated several extensions to my contract including a pay rise on my latest renewal.

Will, Marysia, Lewis and the whole team have also been very helpful when dealing with any queries I have had and they always go out of their way to ensure that I am paid on time. I would recommend ESP to contractors as they go the extra mile to make sure everything is in place, before and during the time you work for them.

Nick has been amazing and has supported me while I was looking for my next career move. He was always available if I had any questions or queries and went above and beyond when I was going through the hiring process for my new role. Nothing was ever too much trouble and I would not be in the role I am in today without his persistence and expertise.

I just wanted to drop you an email to comment on the excellent service I have received from Steve. From the very beginning of the recruitment process, Steve has been professional, helpful and very responsive in communications. I’ve been especially impressed by the updates I have been sent about the progress of the application without me having to chase. It’s a pleasure nowadays to find this sort of service. I have been very happy to deal with ESP.

Steve Simms has been fantastic through the whole process, he has made what can be a stressful process into something easy and relaxed. Steve took all my questions and concerns and provided me with honest and quick answers. He was always contactable and made me feel comfortable throughout. I thank Steve and ESP for landing me my dream job.

ESP is my first port of call for any new positions I need to fill or for new positions for myself.

I would personally recommend Nick and ESP to any employer or job seeker in the education sector.

Will has done me proud whenever I’ve needed him over the years and I have recommended ESP to many friends and colleagues, whether they were hiring or looking to be hired. He clearly puts effort into matching people and roles, rather than just shoe-horning unsuitable people in.

ESP’s thorough and professional approach to recruitment is a refreshing change compared with other agencies that send unqualified candidates who do not meet requirements. The standard and consistency of candidates is always good and so is the level of communication and understanding of our requirements, which is most welcome.

ESP makes it easy and find the right people fast!

Throughout the four years I have worked with ESP, they have provided me with interesting and challenging IT contracts in schools. They are the best.

I have worked for ESP for six years as an independent SIMS consultant. They are very helpful, a pleasure to deal with and they really specialise in SIMS which is great for me.

Nick has an excellent understanding of the independent schools sector as well as the applications used within schools, specifically academic MIS offerings such as SIMS and iSAMS. His cognizance of the schools’ job market is exceptional and I have always found him to be dedicated and hard working.

ESP are excellent at recruiting candidates in very specialist areas, which we would otherwise not have found. Hard working, meticulous and prompt in any correspondence – I recommend them wholeheartedly.

I don’t know how many staff Will has hired for us this year, but they have all been excellent as have Will and his team.
