Testimonials

McKenzie Douglas has maintained a professional relationship with our organisation during the last four years. I have certainly been pleased with the levels of service we have received and as such McKenzie Douglas has become our first port of call regarding recruitment to this department.

Engie

Company Secretary / General Counsel
McKenzie Douglas Ltd has maintained a professional relationship with BHP since 2001. They have assisted in the recruitment of ten high calibre candidates to our business. Tried and trusted they have become our first port of call for European legal recruitment.

BHP

General Counsel
McKenzie Douglas helped me with a number of recruitments. In the difficult market of Project Commercial Managers they have been able to identify excellent candidates which allowed me to fill all roles in a reasonably short time span with the right candidates. They have a strong capability of understanding the demands, the stakeholders and identifying candidates with a good cultural fit for the positions at stake. Their way of working is clear, structured, efficient and always with a positive approach.

Bombardier Transportation

Head of Commercial Management and Critical Projects
McKenzie Douglas has been a tremendous ally both in supporting me personally with the move to my current role, but also in assisting in various recruitment initiatives that the team I manage have undertaken. Their knowledge of the In-House market is superb and mastery of the challenges of the recruitment process is obvious. This benefits candidates and target employers significantly and allows all involved to feel confident that appropriate roles and candidates are well-matched and informed, making things far easier for everyone. Jacqui and her team are a delight to work with - I wish them continued success.

Experian Plc

Head of Legal – Clients & Relationships
I have used McKenzie Douglas for my recruitment needs for a number of years now and have found them to be very professional. Jacqui Douglas is a good listener and as a consequence she has fully understood our business needs. The candidates she puts forward as part of the recruitment selection process are strong and it means that we are usually able to find the right candidate for the job quickly and without fuss. I would be happy to recommend McKenzie Douglas.

Bombardier Transportation

Head of Legal and Contracts
Throughout this year we have been faced with the challenge of recruiting multiple vacancies at the trickiest of levels: 1-3 yr PQE. Following a multi-agency briefing and setting them all off at the same time (expecting them to deliver evenly across the board) it was only McKenzie Douglas who managed to unearth candidates of the quality we needed in terms of technical competency and attitude. I'm sure this was all as a result of sheer tenacity and graft. They also provided valuable intelligence, keeping us abreast of the market along the way so that we knew what we were up against. A fantastic achievement and I'm very pleased to be partnering with them. Definitely my first point of call moving forwards.
