We used the services of Spinnaker Consulting to source a Technical Manager for our mixed fleet of tankers, container vessels and bulk carriers.
At the beginning of the process we produced a timetable which was strictly adhered to. There was excellent communication throughout ensuring that the candidates which were finally shortlisted closely matched our requirements.
The interviews were efficiently organized into first interview and second interview days so reducing the time commitment of the management of this company to the minimum possible.
We have ended up with a good employee and were completely satisfied with the service given by Spinnaker Consulting.

We were impressed with Spinnaker’s ability to nominate qualified candidates which matched our unique criteria. Spinnaker’s detailed narrative reports and interview summaries highlighted strengths, weaknesses and the individuals’ capabilities as they related to the needs of our organization. We were very satisfied that these reports closely matched our own analysis of each candidate. As a result, the short-listing process was fast and efficient. We truly believe we hired the best available candidate as a result of Spinnaker’s services.

Milford Haven Part Authority, the fifth largest port in the UK, have used Spinnaker in the recruitment of several positions over the past few years, most recently being that for a Commercial Director. Having also tried direct advertising and recruitment, we recognise that spinnaker provide access to a large database relevant to our requirements and a high degree of professionalism and expertise from which we have benefited in making successful appointments.
Mr Ted Sangster,
Executive Milford Haven Port Authority

I am pleased to write that the service I have received from Spinnaker throughout my recruitment has been first class. From the initial application to the support I have received during this period has been very helpful. I have found the level of interest and care shown to be better than any support I have received in the past from a recruitment agency. I would whole heartedly recommend Spinnakers to friends and colleagues for both advertising of jobs and for looking for positions in the future.
Kind Regards

Spinnaker Consulting were engaged on a global executive search project to source a director of bunker fuel strategy to be based in our European headquarters. This was a difficult project that required detailed knowledge of the shipping industry both to source the right person and to sell our opportunity to them. Spinnaker shortlisted some excellent individuals from around the world and were successful in finding us a Scandinavian based in Switzerland. We would not hesitate to recommend Spinnaker.

"I am happy to say that I could not be more pleased with my choice of work place!

And once again – thank you for all you have done for me.

You proved all negative rumours about recruiters wrong. The people I have had contact with have been utmost professional and effective as well as being a fantastic support in what can be a difficult process with tough decisions to make."
HHH, Maritime Lawyer,

In the last couple of weeks, I have had frequent exchanges with N with regard to a vacancy ... advertised through Spinnaker.

Having worked for X for eighteen years, I did not have much experience of recruitment consultants until I was made redundant at the end of last year. To say that the catch-up experience has not been entirely pleasant is an understatement.

However the reason for writing to you to is to say that my experience with N has been very positive and everything I would expect from a professional recruitment consultant in terms of approach, progress, response times, updates etc.
