I was placed by Abdul-Rasheed when my firm hired him to find a business developer. Though he was retained by the client, he was very honest/transparent to his candidate. Moreover, he has a solid understanding of the fund administration space as well as the asset management industry in general. He's a very good recruiter with a high level of diligence and professionalism and I would recommend him to both employers and candidates.
Head of Business Development, Global Fund Administration Firm

Tim is a highly experienced recruiter and in my dealings with him he has shown himself to be a consummate professional, giving me great advice while remaining completely honest and open. I would recommend anyone to use Tim for their recruitment needs whether as an employer or a candidate."
Richard Lowe

I have worked with Guy for over 10 years as our recruitment partner. He is an exceptionally good consultant, reliable, straightforward and gives you confidence that he will deliver. I have no hesitation in inviting Guy to meet our recruiting managers as his industry knowledge and experience is 1st class and most importantly he has a handle on our culture that enables him to choose the right personalities for our teams. I can highly recommend Guy as someone that you would want recruiting for your business.
Head of HR @ Boutique Asset Management firm

Tim is among a small group of recruiters who understand not only the technical aspects but most importantly the necessary chemistry fit when scoping out and filling a role. That and a great deal of tenacity when 'closing the deal' made him an invaluable resource when I used his services for multiple Finance team-builds and -restructurings in the past.
COO – Global Real Estate Investment Management Business

Guy you have no need to thank us, we should be thanking you. Your approach, attitude and process completely resonate with us. We are fortunate to have an organisation such as yours helping us when we need your help. You are the perfect partner. You really are a top drawer organisation that even if you ever wished to be rid of us, we would still track you down to use you!
COO – Boutique Asset Manager / Hedge Fund

I have worked with Tim both as a candidate and as a customer for over 10 years and have always found Tim to be extremely open, honest and trustworthy. I consider him to be an expert in his field of property finance recruitment and can trust him to understand my business and provide me with candidates who have the requisite experience, knowledge and personality fit. I therefore highly recommend him.
COO- Global Real Estate Development Business

Tim is one of the most inspiring recruiters I have worked with. He has excellent knowledge of the senior finance market particularly within Real Estate, develops strong client and candidate relationships focused on the long-term rather than the short-term and has always been very successful. He is a great person to work alongside thanks to his great sense of humour. I would not hesitate to recommend him to senior candidates and clients.
CFO – Real Estate Investment Business

Ed King placed me in my current role which has opened many doors and progressed my career in many ways. He managed the entire process with a level of professionalism that you would normally not come across within the recruitment industry. He managed my expectations incredibly well and I am grateful for the his hard work in matching my skill set and experience to the job. I have recommended Ed King to other people looking to progress their careers
Portfolio Managers Assistant - Hedge Fund

We have used Guy to help us with Recruitment within our Middle Office and Investments area on several occasions and he has been extremely successfully in making placements with the Company. He has a detailed and strong understanding of the company and our requirements when we are hiring.
Senior HR Manager @ Top-Tier Fund of Hedge Fund

I have worked with Tim over the last five years both as a candidate and a client. His energy and enthusiasm for the job in hand has always impressed me and makes him a pleasure to work with. It is rare to find such an exceptional recruitment consultant who is so keen to do their best for the business (and the candidate) and who takes the time to understand the firm and the individual to the extent the Tim does. I have been delighted with the high calibre of candidates put forward and would always recommend his help and advice gleaned from his wealth of experiences
CFO – Global Architect Business

Abdul-Rasheed provided me with professional and effective support in helping me secure my present role. He is tenacious but always polite and has a rare quality amongst executive recruiters, that of honesty.

I have no hesitation in recommending him as a first rate consultant.
Head of Internal Audit, Global Fiduciary Firm

"In a stream of identical job descriptions on a website I was browising, one in particular stood out; it was far from generic, it cut out the jargon and told me what I really wanted to know about the job. I was intrigued so contacted the recruiter, who turned out to be Tim. The timing didn't work out for that particular role but that didn't matter. Tim and I met (at my convenience) and he took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for in my first move out of industry. Tim in person is the same as the job description that led me to him, honest and told me what I really wanted to know. Tim assured me he had good industry contacts, which I can now testify to as he approached me with a role before it was circulated by the larger recruitment firms. This was the only role Tim approached me with, not for lack of roles, but because he had listened to what I was looking for and didn't want to waste my time or his. I interviewed for the role with full support and regular contact with Tim and I'm pleased to say I was offered the job. I've recommended Tim to other friends who are looking to move, not because he asked me to (as many recruiters do) but because he had the contacts and experience to help me make the move I wanted."
Fiona Eccelston - Deloitte

We first worked with Ed when we were looking to expand our finance function in London. He was immediately credible in respect of his knowledge of the market and the sector. His approach was commercial and practical with no sales chat - refreshing and welcome. I would not hesitate to use him again in the future.
HR Director - Private Equity

We have worked with Ed at Carnegie on a number of different assignments, including a number of Equity Research roles, Sales & Marketing and the Private Client business. Ed has consistently provided a very high level of service and has demonstrated a very good understanding of our business and its recruitment needs.
COO, Asset Manager

Ed has now succesfully recruited 3 analysts into my team. He understands what we need as a business and, more importantly,gets that vital ingredient which is, of course, cultural fit. If you are looking to recruit a good PM team - look no further!
PM - Hedge Fund

I have used Tim to provide recruitment advice and selection on numerous occasions. He is the best I have come across by a huge margin. He undertands the business, the requirements, the environment and the specification. I can't think of any time where his recommendation hasn't been correct. I have used other consultants and every time they make me realise how good he is. Use him, and you will find out.
CFO – Real Estate Development and Design Business

I have had a seamless and successful job hunting experience with Carnegie Consulting and I would highly recommend their services. Guy Steel referred me for a number of suitable roles, kept me well informed at every stage and always made sure I had everything I needed to be well prepared for interviews. Information was always communicated in a timely manner, honestly and openly and I am very pleased with the role I have accepted.
Charities Fund Manager – Asset Manager

Guy Steel is a very reliable, well connected and informed head hunter, I worked with him recently as a candidate and had a very good and successful experience.
COO Asset Manager

Guy has been assisting with recruitment in our Operations, Sales and Investment areas for in excess of 8 years and has proven to be extremely successful at identifying and placing high calibre staff within our organisation. We find Guy to have a very strong understanding of our business needs and the types of candidates that would succeed within our organisation. He also has an ability to work with us in mapping and establishing the exact requirements for those roles that are not always the easiest to recruit for due to their very specialised nature. Overall, we find Guy very easy to work with and an excellent recruitment professional.
Senior HR Manager @ Global Asset Management firm

"Tim provided an excellent service when he placed me in a new role at a leading property company. He was very personable and listened to the type of role I was after, rather than flooding me wth job specs. He was very helpful and knowledgable about both the industry and the process. I'd definitely recommend contacting Tim if you're looking for a role in the property sector."
Patrick Boguzas

I respect Tim as a senior and very experienced recruiter. He has some outstanding natural characteristics and abilities and he has honed these through intelligent application, an active interest in learning & improvement and years of success into a suite of exceptional recruitment skills. Tim has focused his talents on the commercial property sector for well over a decade. Little wonder that he has such a loyal following having combined his recruitment skills with his passion for property. Numerous people have benefitted enormously from Tim's positive contribution to their careers, and businesses. Including me.
Chairman

Having met Guy initially for an informal chat, I feel that he listened to my requirements for a new employer and identified a possible lead straight away. After initially interviewing with the client and being unsuccessful I went back a few weeks later and was successful second time around. Since this time I have been very happy in my role and cannot thanks Guy and Carnegie enough. We remain friends and I have attended several social events and this gives the recruitment process at Carnegie an edge over its competitors. I feel the company listens to its clients issues and provides a tailored service to which I was happy to be part of.
