Chris Appleton, Director in charge of the Southampton office 
Smith & Williamson

Finding key senior people that have the ability to make a positive contribution to our growth plans is one of the most challenging aspects of managing our business.

Working in conjunction with GMA to identify and attract three high quality candidates at Director level has facilitated our expansion in forensic accounting, corporate recovery and corporate tax.

They have a clear understanding of our business and the range of clients we address, which has enabled him to promote the opportunities at Smith & Williamson in a compelling manner. We look forward to continuing this successful partnership.


Michael Ware, Partner, Project Finance
BDO Stoy Hayward

Because of continued business growth, we had been looking to strengthen our senior management team in the PFI/PPP arena.

Following discussions with GMA it was evident that he understood our requirements both in terms of the market in which we operate and the type of people that we need. Shortly thereafter, he introduced a number of Director-level candidates with the requisite knowledge of Project Finance together with strong lead advisory and consultancy skills.

As a result, we were able to make an early appointment of a key individual that is now making a significant contribution to our continued expansion.

GMA is unusual in my experience of working with Executive Search consultants.

They took a very long view in getting to know us well. The candidates that they have shown us have always been relevant to our needs and always of a very high calibre.

As a company GMA works well at all levels and we are both impressed and appreciative of the work they do for us.

Peter Fellows, Partner

"We turned to GMA to assist with a partner level hire as part of the firm’s ongoing expansion, and the service we received was a wonderful blend of wise advice, prompt action, great communication, wide-ranging scrutiny of the market and diligent follow up of all leads, capped with a good shortlist and an excellent final candidate.  I have no hesitation in recommending them."
