Team Day

As a business, we work remotely most of the time, but we do like to get together at least once a month. Our meet ups strengthen our internal relationships, spark conversations that don't happen over Zoom, and give everyone the opportunity to step away from the home office for a while.

July Testimonials

Enterprise Account Manager | Candidate Testimonial

“I can't recommend Arran and Oakstone International highly enough. From our very first conversation, he was incredibly kind, genuine, and invested in my future. He took the time to understand my experience, my career goals, and what I was truly looking for in my next role. Throughout the entire process, Arran was responsive, transparent, and an outstanding advocate. His guidance and encouragement made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and exciting. Thanks to his support, I accepted a role that has been an incredible fit. What stood out most, though, was the relationship we built along the way. Arran's authenticity and kindness are rare in recruiting, and I genuinely feel like I walked away not only with a fantastic new job, but also with a new friend. If you're looking for a recruiter who truly cares about the people he works with, I wholeheartedly recommend Arran. I'm incredibly grateful for everything he did for me.”

Enterprise Account Executive | Candidate Testimonial

“Steve was excellent throughout my job search. He properly understood my background before putting me forward for roles, so everything felt relevant rather than a volume play. Proactive, good market insight, and straightforward at every stage. Would recommend to anyone in enterprise tech sales - a different level of recruitment experience.”

Head of Customer Success | Candidate Testimonial

“I worked with Steve Farr at Oakstone during my recent search for a new Head of Customer Success / VP CS role, and he made the whole process feel a lot less painful than it usually is. What stood out was how genuinely he listened — not just to the job spec I was after, but to what actually mattered to me at this stage of my career. He kept communication honest and regular, even when there wasn't much new to report, which I appreciated far more than empty reassurance. He was straightforward about where things stood with each opportunity, good and bad, and never oversold a role just to keep me engaged. When it came to the process itself, Steve was sharp on prep — helping me think through how to position 20 years of B2B SaaS experience clearly and confidently, rather than just forwarding CVs and hoping for the best. That care paid off: I landed a Head of CS role that's a genuinely good fit. If you're on the market and want a recruiter who treats you like a person rather than a placement fee, I'd recommend Steve and the team at Oakstone without hesitation.”

Account Executive | Candidate Testimonial

“Working with Tristan and Arran was a pleasure. They were both extremely professional and detail oriented in their approach. Arran was especially knowledgeable with the companies he represented and in his communication during the entire process. I would recommend Oakstone to all professionals looking for the next great opportunity.”

Account Executive | Candidate Testimonial

“It was a great experience working with Steve, Joe, and Libby. They are way more than a recruitment company - they are true partners who coach and prepare you to perform at your highest potential throughout the entire interview process. They - especially Steve - help you negotiate and get clarity on the timing and next steps.”
