The accountancy & finance recruiter of choice for the Southwest of England

I found Trial Balance to be by far the best recruitment agency that I have worked with. They not only kept me up to date with new opportunities as they arose, but also offered great advice that made the search for the right role extremely easy. Compared to other recruiters I used previously in London, Trial Balance were miles ahead in terms of service and communication. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I’ve always found the team at Trial Balance to be friendly, honest and efficient. I have always received great service, even on some of the trickier vacancies that we have had. Would definitely recommend their services.

Darnells are happy to endorse Trial Balance an excellent recruitment consultancy. Rob Emsley has sourced us many excellent candidates and is always approachable and dependable, giving advice where needed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob or Trial Balance.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your great help and support during my job search. The service you provide is fantastic and I would have no doubt in recommending you to anyone who was in a similar position to me. Having had experience with other agencies, you are ahead by miles. Your friendly and supportive approach was so very much appreciated and really did help me through that first and quite scary interview!

I am hoping that this job will be a perfect fit, but would not hesitate to come back to you if for any reason I find myself once again looking for another finance position.

I am more than happy to endorse Trial Balance as my first choice for recruitment – either as a candidate or a recruiter – the whole team are excellent! They have provided the best candidates and deliver a professional service. I would have no hesitation in recommending Trial Balance.

As a recruitment agency, I could not recommend Trial Balance enough. They provide an excellent level of service and take the time to understand the role/s we are recruiting for and how important cultural fit is to us as a business. David has located some fantastic candidates and sourced our Financial Director who has been positively influential in our business. I could not thank him enough for his valuable support to our business.

We have been very impressed with the fast and professional service that Trial Balance Consulting have provided us.
This is the first time that we have used their services, they understood our requirements, sent us a small number of suitable candidates CV’s, which enabled us to fill the position within one week.

Thanks for all your help, you will definitely be my first choice for any future recruitment needs.

The team at Trial Balance acted really quickly upon instruction, I had a really good standard of suitable candidates CV’s across my desk within a couple of days and had interviews set up within a week. Elle was great to deal with, she understood what we wanted and made sure we had the right level of contact and the right number of CV’s across my desk, great after sales service as well.

Dear Rob,


I am writing to thank you for your recent assistance in securing two job offers from two very reputable accounting firms.

From the moment I made first contact you have worked hard to help me secure a position that fulfils my goals. I was particularly impressed with the effort you made to both secure interviews for me swiftly and maintain strong contact to keep me informed during the process. This has not always been my experience with recruitment agencies, but I have felt that Trial Balance Consulting have had both your client’s and my best interests in mind at all times.

I would not hesitate to recommend your services and should I ever need your services in the future, I will not look beyond contacting yourselves.

I wish you every future success.
