    "​I was fortunate to work with Rae as a candidate being recruited into a senior role.  Whilst the recruitment process itself was complex, working with More People was a painless experience.  Rae provided regular updates, keeping to agreed deadlines where possible and ensuring I was informed as we progressed through the process.  She was always personable, trying to find the right balance to deliver for the customer whilst ensuring the candidate was supported and represented throughout.  She worked with the company to understand exactly what they were looking for, before working with me to understand what was in my CV, but perhaps more importantly learn about me, what drives me and what I would bring to the role.  Having been through similar processes with other recruitment consultants, I would recommend More People and in particular Rae, who was great throughout".

    ​We’ve partnered with Rae at MorePeople twice now to recruit Regional Sales Representatives for Kings Seeds, once in 2023 and again in June 2025. On both occasions, Rae quickly understood our business needs and delivered high-quality candidates within a short timeframe. I knew MorePeople would be reliable as they placed me at Kings Seeds back in 2018.What stands out most is the reliability and efficiency throughout the process; every step was handled professionally, with clear communication and a genuine commitment to finding the right fit. Both placements have been excellent additions to our team, and it’s clear Rae not only has a strong network but also the expertise to match the right person to the role.  I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rae and MorePeople to any horticulture business looking for a recruiter who is proactive, dependable, and able to deliver great results quickly.
