“I’ve been working with Oakstone for a few decades now in a number of different roles, and I choose to work with them due to the fantastic candidate experience that they provide and how much effort they put into understanding the company and the role, and fitting the right candidates to those roles.

I think it’s important in business to work with people you like, and I always find it really easy to speak to all of the team at Oakstone.

I think it’s Oakstone’s focus on the business and making sure there is the right cultural fit between the candidates and the roles and that makes Oakstone stand out.”

“I have been contacted by Oakstone International several times over the years, but the timing hasn’t been right until this year. Oakstone and Arran Campbell want not only you to truly succeed in the process of finding a new job and challenges but also to get to know you as a person. This isn’t always the case with some other players in the market. They work tight with you as a candidate in keeping you continuously up-to-speed with relevant information about development and how you’re potentially positioned against other candidates. Once I told Arran that Zlatan Ibrahimovic had Mino Raiola as an agent, and I had Arran. If you’re serious in your search for a new role and job, Oakstone International should definitely be on your radar. If Arran Campbell is your “partner in crime”, you’re in for a ride.”

“I was contacted on LinkedIn by a consultant at Oakstone, who caught my attention with a message that was personal and to the point. They put me in touch with Arran, who took things from there. He really understood my current frustrations and aligned the opportunity perfectly. He was thorough and diligent and fought my corner all the way. His persistence was unique, as I have dealt with recruiters who fit the stereotype of going quiet and only caring about the commission. Arran could not be further from that. If all the team at Oakstone are like Arran, I highly recommend them.”

Strategic Sales Director Testimonial

“Working with Tristan has been a pleasure. He has demonstrated balanced and insightful perspectives on the opportunities being considered, and his care and consideration in supporting any preparatory work were particularly appreciated. It is clear the team has strong relationships with its clients, translating to the most reliable and trusted advice, which clearly does not come from a place of bias or self-serving interests. Seeking a new challenge is a significant step, and in a crowded marketplace where superficiality and a lack of personal touch is prevalent, it is reassuring to work with people that are objective and considerate instead.”

“I was first contacted by Ben for an interesting opportunity and, shortly after, a second time by Tristan for another client. Turned out the first opportunity did not work because the client had decided so, but thanks to the excellent advice I received from Tristan, I managed to sign with my new employer. Oakstone really makes a difference when it comes to keeping you posted on the job opportunity, either positively OR not, and helping you close your own deal.”

“From his initial outreach, Arran Campbell was incredibly personable and made me feel as if I was the most important candidate he was working with. His professionalism is above and beyond any of the recruiters I have worked with over the past few years. I’ve also never worked with a recruiter who was as available and generous with their time. Despite the 8-hour time difference between us, he was always accessible to me whether it was to follow up on my interviews, answer any questions I had, or simply encourage me and root me on as I moved through the interviewing process. Trust me when I say…Arran is the one you want in your corner!”
