I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with Annalisa, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She was incredibly professional, warm, and supportive throughout our conversation. Annalisa has a rare ability to truly listen, understand a person’s situation, and offer guidance with both clarity and kindness. She made me feel heard, reassured, and confident about the next steps, and her knowledge of the industry is outstanding. It is clear that she genuinely cares about the people she works with, not just the process. Thank you, Annalisa, for your professionalism, empathy, and positive energy — it was a pleasure speaking with you.

I followed Isabella across to S&W, as she is the best agent I have dealt with over the years. Professional but can laugh and joke too, too many recruiters take themselves far too seriously, and it makes a huge difference to a hugely frustrating process of applying for work. Agents that take the time to talk to you and understand the person applying are not commonplace sadly. Job hunting/applying is a 3 way thing between me, recruiter and the employers, and the recruiter is a big part of that so you have to be able to trust they are on your side to get your best side across and sell you. Of course, all being well I won't be dealing with them for long!

Our experience with Shire & Wold Staffing so far has been excellent, thanks in particular to Martyn. From our very first communication, he has taken the time to get to know us properly, not just our experience on paper, but who we are and what we’re looking for. Martyn has been friendly, approachable and very human in his approach, while remaining thoroughly professional throughout. His guidance has been clear, thoughtful and reassuring, and it’s been refreshing to work with someone who clearly values building genuine connections. Although we’re yet to meet the wider team, our experience to date has been extremely positive, and we’re very much looking forward to continuing the process. Based on our interactions so far, we would highly recommend Shire & Wold.

Me and my partner are a domestic couple looking to move on from our previous role therefore decided to sign up with Shire & Wold. Martyn & Annalisa have been very supportive and informative from the beginning. Annalisa took her time to truly get to know us and our skills to be able to place us with the right client. We're really looking forward to working with Annalisa and at this stage cannot recommend this agency more as they have been super friendly and down to earth too making us at ease in our search!
