Account Manager

Really great people (shoutout to Mark, Holly and Libby!) who care about what exact role you're looking for. They take the time to help with interview prep and follow-up with the companies you've applied for on how you did in the interviews which is really useful. I've used quite a few different recruitment agencies but these guys were much more efficient, organised and offered a wide range of positions of interest with some well-known organisations. Highly recommend! 👍✨

Libby communicated brilliantly from start to finish, providing a clear brief of the expectations of the role and hiring company and then providing timely updates throughout the process. I felt well-represented in the negotiation process, too.

Libby, Olivia and the rest of the team were very hands on and provided good advice and feedback throughout. Very smooth process from start to finish which ultimately made it stress free for me whilst working full time still. I’m now starting a new exciting role after a great offer.

As our business continues to expand I have utilised Zenopa many times over the past few years and they have successfully placed candidates with us on the majority of occasions. Libby & the team always take the time to fully understand our particular requirements for each of our vacancies and the first stage screening of potential candidates ensures we are receiving the right calibre of interviewee which significantly reduces the time we spend on this process internally. My experience of working with Zenopa (predominantly Libby & Liam) has been very positive, they are fully invested in the process from start to finish providing excellent feedback and communication throughput each recruitment cycle.

I am thrilled to share my profound gratitude for Libby at Zenopa, whose unwavering dedication, guidance, and thoughtful support played an integral role in my successful job search journey. Her continuous check-ins and pre-interview support demonstrated her exceptional professionalism and care. From the moment I began working with Libby, it was evident that she was not only dedicated but deeply invested in helping me find the right opportunity. Her keen understanding of my skills, aspirations, and preferences made the job search process both smooth and productive.

She provided regular updates, insightful advice, and invaluable insights into the interview process, ensuring I was well-prepared and confident at every stage. Her thoroughness in addressing any questions or concerns I had created an environment where I felt supported and reassured throughout the entire process. Libby's pre-interview support was a game-changer. Her calls before each interview were not only timely but immensely helpful in calming nerves and boosting confidence. Her genuine encouragement and strategic advice undoubtedly contributed to my success in the interview rounds. Moreover, Libby's involvement did not conclude with securing the job offer. She thoughtfully checked-in after I started the new role showcasing her sincere concern for my well-being and integration into the new environment. This level of post-placement support is a testament to her commitment to candidates' long-term success. Beyond her professional expertise, Libby's warm demeanour and approachability created an environment where I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts and concerns. Thanks to Libby's exceptional support, I am now growing in a role that aligns perfectly with my career goals. Her unwavering commitment to my success has not only secured me a job but has also set the foundation for a fulfilling and rewarding career path. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Libby at Zenopa to anyone seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable recruiter. Her outstanding professionalism, genuine care, and continuous support make her an exceptional recruiter who goes above and beyond. Thank you, Libby, for your guidance, support, and genuine care.
