“The team helped us better define what we needed for our business.”

When Krome started looking for a Skype for Business consultant it became obvious this would be challenging due to the shortage of Skype for Business candidates in our region. From the very beginning Nigel Frank stood out as an agency with the right specialist knowledge in the Microsoft UC space and access to the necessary pool of candidates that we weren’t seeing from other agencies. The team were very helpful and friendly.

Rupert Mills DirectorKrome Technologies

Ben Adams Head of RecruitmentMeetingZone

“We were very happy with how the recruitment process was carried out.”

MeetingZone are a leading conferencing and collaboration services provider offering personalised Unified Communications, Web and Audio Conferencing services. Technology moves at such an incredibly fast pace within our sector, that finding technically proficient staff within tight deadlines can be difficult. We needed to recruit experienced Skype for Business specific professionals and therefore looked to external recruiters to assist us.

Nigel Frank’s capability as a specialist UC technologies recruiter was immediately apparent. They were very professional, understood our requirements and presented us with a number of relevant Skype for Business candidates in a short period of time. We employed three Skype for Business professionals through Nigel Frank.
