Lawrence puts matching the individual to the business first. You can trust him and his team to do the right thing. He is always a pleasure to work with as a recruiting business or candidate.
Andrew Wilson
Lawrence had contacted me on behalf of MorePeople as he believed he had found a role that suited my skills. With his exceptional support in making sure I had all the information I needed, and regular updates, I am now in my new role. I would highly recommend him and he is an asset to MorePeople. If I were ever looking for a role in the future, I would reach out to Lawrence and the MorePeople Team. He has also made the transition from one career to the next go incredibly smoothly and made me feel completely at ease

Sandra was an absolute delight to deal with. She found me a role I would enjoy, tailored to my working style. We kept in touch throughout the process and offered me support with my interviews. I was kept up to date with all of the employer's communications which I've struggled with in the past with other recruitment agencies, thank you for all your hard work
Faye Street
Lawrence really changed my perspective on recruiters, It was never just transactional and I never felt that Lawrence just wanted something from me. He took time on building our relationship really listened and kept in touch throughout. I really enjoyed the process and Lawrence topped it off with a lovely card from everyone in the team.
Daniel Eldridge
Natalie was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. She was always on hand to provide support, answer any questions, and guide me through each step with professionalism and care. Her clear and efficient communication made the whole experience a pleasure. MorePeople as a whole did a fantastic job in managing the process. The approach taken and genuine interest in finding the right fit really stood out to me.
James
Candidate
"After over 20 years in my last position, it came as a huge shock when the doors were finally closed. Having never looked for a new job in this time, let alone gone through an interview process, I was in need of some guidance. Luan was not just guidance, but an inspiration who made me feel comfortable and confident on my way to finding a new work home. It's early days, but so far so good, and Luan has continued to check in with me to see how it is going. Hopefully, I won't need your help again Luan, but if I ever need to move on I know who to call first.
The Florence Nightingale of the recruitment world".
Mark
Candidate
A huge thankyou for putting me in front of a great business and opportunity. Brian was brilliant throughout the process and I appreciate the care, time and diligence that he provided.”
Rob
Candidate
Max has been fantastic throughout the process. His knowledge of the industry and his contacts ensured I had the best opportunity to join the Land Agency industry. The pre-interview calls were a huge help as a test run before chatting to employers, this proved invaluable. I would highly recommend Max and MorePeople to anyone looking for a career in the agricultural or rural sector. Thank you for your help and hard work, it has made the process of finding a new job stress-free and enjoyable.
Marion
Candidate
Guy Moreton was excellent in laying out the role I was interested in and had very good knowledge of the organisation which was helpful. The candidate pack made preparation straightforward too. Organising interviews and presentations was efficient and swift. Guy was helpful in answering a number of questions I had in the lead into each phase of the recruitment process and communication was good and clear at each stage. I was delighted when he called to say I had been successful and finalising offers etc was fast. Overall, it was a pleasure working with More People and I recommend them.
Katie
Candidate
I had never changed jobs before, probably because it seemed like a big scary life change. But with working through MorePeople I felt I wasn’t doing it alone and Max was very patient through the whole process and really went above and beyond to obtain my requirements/ aspirations for my new role.
Will
Candidate
Hannah has been absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. Coming from a different background, I didn't expect to break into the rural sector, but she quickly secured multiple interviews for me. Thanks to her guidance, I felt well-equipped and confident going into each one. What stood out most was that, unlike my experiences with other recruiters, I never felt pressured to accept any offers. Ultimately, I can't recommend Hannah and MorePeople highly enough.
Debbie
Candidate
I cannot thank Sandra enough for her help in getting me my current role. Firstly, she put me forward for a credit control role within the food industry - unfortunately, this was not successful but as I had shown an interest in the company, due to having worked within the food industry for a number of years, Sandra went back to the company stating my interest and I was then offered an interview for another which I was offered the same day!! Sandra was totally committed to my search and really gave my confidence a boost when talking to her before interviews. I would definitely recommend Sandra & MorePeople to friends and they will definitely be my first port of call if needed.
Zara
Candidate
I am incredibly grateful for the support that Sarah provided during my post-graduate search for employment within the horticulture industry. From the very beginning, Sarah was not only knowledgeable but also exceptionally friendly and approachable, maintaining regular contact and providing frequent updates on available opportunities. After taking the time to understand my personal career goals and finding the perfect role for me, Sarah was then able to provide invaluable guidance regarding the interview process helping me to secure the role. Sarah's dedication and positive attitude made the entire process much more manageable, and her encouragement was a constant source of motivation. Thank you, Sarah!
David Brooks
Candidate
I first spoke to the team at MorePeople over five years ago in a different capacity. However, those contacts were kept fresh in my mind and remained valuable, as it was great to hear about their work in the NED sector.
The non-PE and SME world is not very well served for such searches but Guy kept me up to date, and supported me where necessary, and was also happy to encourage direct contact as and when required.
It was calm, comforting and professional with a suitable level of informality to a process that is as much about the relationships as it is about the technical knowledge
Thank you
Chris
Candidate
"Sarah is simply a saint!
I left a well-paid job to go to work for a company closer to home, They promised me my dream role. The job for life I had been waiting for.
To find out after passing my probation I was let go with no explanation on the spot. I reached out to Sarah and she made it her mission to help me. Within a day I had four jobs sent to me in my local area but being 38 years of age I was still looking for a job for life. Two weeks later, Sarah found me a position, not just a job for life but a role I couldn’t even dream about being in, at a company who is a highly rated employer.
Sarah is extremely professional, hard working and friendly and always keeping you in the loop. She called last week with the offer. Her work improved our financial position and allowed us to go on holiday for the first time in years.
I owe Sarah the world! She is a true asset to MorePeople, thank you again."

“I have been dealing with Jake at MorePeople and words can't describe the professionalism. He has made getting me an interview, to landing me a role with the least amount of stress and 110% Satisfaction. He is a credit to the company, dealing with me Knowing I was still attending other interviews and taking time to listen to the role I was after. Great job Jake and the same to the rest of the Team. I sincerely I hope People reading this review, consider MorePeople as their choice of Recruiter.”
Russell
Candidate
I’m so thankful for your hard work and determination, in making my job search so easy and without issue. I have been farming now for over 25years and this has been the easiest and smoothest application that I have had without doubt. Your expertise and interest in my situation has been nothing less than phenomenal and professional. My new venture into Ireland as General Manager is certainly a highlight for my career. I can certainly warrant passing on your details to other applicants in similar situations.
Megan
Candidate
I met Sarah through the Young People in Horticulture Association (YPHA) and also knew that she worked at MorePeople. When I started looking for a new job, I reached out to her. Initially, I was unsure about what I wanted, but Sarah patiently listened to my requirements and preferences for a new role. She made an effort to find roles suited to what I was looking for.
I worked closely with Sarah for a long time, and she was always friendly and supportive. Whenever I was uncertain, she provided valuable advice without making me feel pressured. When searches fell short, she came up with new approaches that motivated me and kept my spirits up. Sarah consistently kept me updated, arranged interviews and facilitated communication between different companies, which was very reassuring. Sarah also provided helpful interview and presentation tips and advice, which proved to be invaluable when I interviewed for potential roles. Thanks to Sarah I was able to find a new exciting role which I don’t think I could have found without her help and advice.
Stephen
Candidate
Alesha reached out to me after finding my CV online. She took the time to understand my career aspirations and what I was looking for in my next role. After our discussion, Alesha presented me with a fantastic opportunity that matched my goals. She provided invaluable support and guidance throughout the process, ensuring I was comfortable and well-prepared for the interview. She also liaised with the company to ensure a perfect match for both parties.
I highly recommend MorePeople for their dedication to both client and candidate.
Julian
Candidate
I have been working with MorePeople for many years predominantly recruiting for me, with many new members of my teams added by MorePeople over the years. They have always been able to find a number of great candidates with the right experience, skills and culture fit. Most recently Tom found me a new role, he was always proactive keeping me in the loop during the process. He ensured I had all the information I needed and was well-prepared at each stage. As always, MorePeople provide a great service treating you as an individual and everyone in the team is always friendly and helpful.
Ross
MorePeople has been forthright at every turn, with full clarity on what’s been happening behind the scenes, making the process very easy and clear. I cannot thank the team enough for helping me find my new role. They remained extremely professional and helpful throughout. I now have a fantastic role, with a great company, and it’s all down to the help and time the team put in. I cannot stress enough, the gratitude I have for this.
Katherine
I've recently been offered a Seasonal Plant Manager role. This would not have happened without the tireless effort the MorePeople team and I want to commend them on going above and beyond.
I applied for a position over a year ago but I graciously declined the position as it wasn't quite what I wanted. I asked if they would keep me in mind if anything came up in the department I wanted to work in. The Garden Centre Team was thorough in connecting me with several CREMs in the area where I wanted to work. As I said, this process has taken over a year but the team have regularly touched base with me during that time and when the right role came up, took me through the whole process again. The application has now been successful and he took so much of the stress out of the entire process. I felt completely supported and I can't thank you enough.
Thanks again for everything and keep up the great work!
Mark Sherred
I cannot thank Felicity enough, I have used More People for several years now during my career working within garden centre retail. Felicity contacts me every six months or so to check in and see how work is going and to see if I am looking for a new challenge. I was recently looking for a new role and called MorePeople to see if they had a suitable position that they were looking to fill, I spoke to Felicity and with her help managed to secure employment in a fantastic role and could not be happier! Thank you again, I would not have found the role without you! Highly recommended, you and MorePeople are amazing!
Mark Lythgoe
"I would like to thank Max for his help and support in successfully securing my position as Land Consents Officer with Savills UK. From the beginning, Max kept me regularly updated and still keeps in touch to see how I'm getting along, after starting the role. I also enjoyed our chats about the England rugby team's performance in the 2023 Rugby World Cup! Thanks, Max for your help and support."
Helen
Max was really efficient and made the whole process completely seamless from start to finish. Very personable and professional – thank you!
Helen W
Max helped guide me to a position which suits my current circumstances, yet leaves my options open. He negotiated on my behalf to secure a tailor-made role, giving me a chance to rescue a hard-fought-for career. Thank you, Max, for your emotional support, and encouragement, and for obtaining a salary that reflects my worth.
Jeremy Byfleet
Candidate
I met Sarah following up on an open role being advertised via LinkedIn. From the start, I found Sarah highly engaging, supportive and helpful - this continued throughout the process. The interview process was across 4 stages. Prior to each stage, Sarah provided useful preparatory information and always followed up after each interview to get my view on how things went and how I felt about the role. Her feedback shared with me from the hiring company was invaluable in understanding how they felt about me and helping me to prepare for the next stage.
At the point of offer, Sarah was great at helping the negotiations go well and I felt she was on my side through the process. Sarah continued to stay in contact after the contract was signed to ensure I was well set up for my first day. Going through any role change it is invaluable to have a supportive recruiter on your side, especially those that take a proactive approach and personal interest in getting the right fit. Sarah achieved all of these and I would certainly recommend her to other candidates.
Natasha Cutler
Candidate
I am truly grateful to MorePeople for their sincere and proactive approach when it came to finding me my position. Rae was fantastic at finding me a role that really suited me and was nothing but professional, attentive and genuinely supportive along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Victoria Marr
Candidate
I’d never really engaged with headhunters before, but the Rural Professionals team was so personable from the outset and instantly put me at ease. The communication throughout the process was excellent which made what could have been a very daunting experience really enjoyable, and not only did I feel supported through the interview process they have continued to check-in with me since starting my new role. I couldn’t recommend the team at MorePeople highly enough. They really care, which makes them great at what they do!
Catherine Blair
Candidate
MorePeople were great to work with and has paired me up with a company I can't wait to get started working for. My consultant reached out to me around a year ago after I left my previous position and has worked hard at finding me a job that is appropriate for my skill set and experience. They have kept me at the centre of the process from start to finish and have come up with good ideas about the different pathways I could venture into. I would highly recommend the team at Morepeople if anyone is looking for a change of company.
Daniel Cottam
Candidate
Mollie contacted me after a few years since last speaking with MorePeople. She informed me of some great new opportunities in my area which would suit my academic and working experience nicely. Mollie contacted me at least weekly with updates as she got my name to all the current opportunities as well as prospective clients of which she gave me a pick list. This was excellent as I could be sure that I wouldn’t end up with interviews I didn’t want, meaning that mine, Mollies and future employers time wasn’t wasted. Mollie dealing with employers directly means that my CV doesn't get stuck in an inbox and gets the attention it needs. Subsequently, Mollie got my foot in the door with a couple of big names with one meeting with me within a short space of time. This resulted in two successful interviews which Mollie prepped me for when the time was convenient for me. Overall, I’d recommend Mollie to all my peers in the agricultural/horticultural sector who are looking for a new challenge.
Eve Kerrigan
Candidate
Sarah and the guys at More People have been absolute stars to work with. Not only do they really know their stuff about all the aspects that make up the horticultural industry, they also have a passion about matching the right people up for the right roles and will go above and beyond to do this successfully. I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough and hope that they continue to help people, like me, to find there next adventure in an exciting career. Thanks guys, you really are smashing it!
Harry Randell
Candidate
I would highly recommend MorePeople, following my experience. They understood just what I was looking for and came back with a really promising lead in no time at all! Throughout the interview process, they provided ample advice and feedback for which I am incredibly grateful. Thanks MorePeople!
Tayla Venter
Candidate
My consultant is great at his job; they take great care in getting to know you as a person and what you are looking at doing professionally. They made sure I was updated with what was happening in the hiring process. MorePeople really does care about their clients, as they have taken the time to check in with me even after I have been placed in my role. I would highly recommend working with MorePeople.
Simon Northcott
Candidate
James is a very friendly person, who has great communication style and presents as someone who takes a genuine interest in his clients and acts in their best interests. During my first conversation with James, I explained that I would be interested in hearing about any new positions, but as I was currently months away from completing my MSc, I didn’t feel that the time for me to focus on job hunting was quite right. James was excepting of this and told me that he would be in touch in a few months’ time to find out how I had got on. Months later James called me enthusiastically, about a job role, which although I hadn’t considered, he was sure that it could be a good fit for my skill set and ambition. James was very knowledgeable not only about the job role but crucially about the company, there employees and the ethos of the business. For me this was really reassuring, and I immediately felt at ease with James negotiating a first stage interview for me. At every level of the 3-stage interview process, James was very professional and with his support and mentoring he made a potentially stressful experience, one that was relatively straightforward. I am one month into my new job and within the first few weeks I have received an email from James asking my how I am settling in, something that didn’t surprise me at all, as this level of attention to detail is what I have come to expect. I have been extremely satisfied with the help, assistance and support that James has provided me in my search to secure a new job and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending James at Morepeople to friends and colleagues in the future.
Savannah Beverley Ryan
Candidate
My consultant has been the most helpful in preparing me for my interviews with JHFarming these past few weeks. They gave me the confidence boost I needed to get me through this first job interview since moving to the UK a month ago. I was quite intimidated by the field before their reassurance and am most pleased to say, I am extremely happy with the services of this company. I would like to thank my consultant for their communication skills and ability to comfort me along the way. Needless to say I landed the job and I am grateful to have been so well taken care of.
Patrick Gal
Candidate
Will recruited me for a Packhouse Change Manager role. His professionalism, words of encouragement, honesty and the preparations of the entire process helped me obtain this new job. He ensured I was kept informed every step of the way and gave me all the information required to be successful. Will is one of the best recruiters I have dealt with. Incredibly talented, never missed a follow-up call, and a genuine pleasure to work with. An absolute credit to professionalism. If I will ever need a recruiter again, he would be the one I would not hesitate to approach first.
Val

Sarah, and MorePeople came and helped me to find my new job just in time. I was ready to change but was not sure how to start.
