In my opinion their technical understanding and market knowledge makes Consumer Additions the best choice of recruitment partner in the South-East. I can’t recommend them enough’.

Berkmann Wine Cellars
Head of Finance

“Although I had never worked with Consumer Additions previously, we engaged them on our CFO vacancy due to a strong recommendation from a main shareholder rather than use our usual contacts. They took their time to listen to the brief and work up a shortlist of relevant and qualified candidates, who also arrived well-briefed as to the person and role specifications. We now have an outstanding CFO who fits culturally and is making a positive difference across the Group. I thoroughly recommend their services.”

Hunter Boots
