What our clients say

"Working with Eilish at Caithness Consulting has been an absolute pleasure across multiple recruitment projects. Over the course of recruiting our Fundraising and Communications Manager, Finance Manager, and Senior Fundraising Officer, Eilish consistently demonstrated her professionalism and expertise.

What sets Eilish apart is her genuine commitment to understanding our organisation's specific needs and culture. She took the time to really grasp what we were looking for, not just in terms of skills and experience, but the type of person who would thrive in our environment. This thorough approach meant that the candidates she presented were all of exceptional quality and genuinely suitable for our roles.

Eilish's friendly and supportive approach made the entire recruitment process smooth and stress-free. Her ability to identify and attract the perfect group of candidates for each position has been invaluable to our organisation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Caithness Consulting to any organisation looking for a recruitment partner who truly understands the sector and delivers outstanding results."

Andrew Tibbs, CEO, Unicorn Preservation Society

"I worked closely with Peter Caithness over the course of a long global selection process which attests to Caithness Consulting's truly international scope: while based in Scotland, they found me in Brazil and encouraged me to apply for a senior position in fundraising advancement in Arizona, USA! "

"Their efficient communication and effective guidance transformed a complex process - especially in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic - into an exceptionally smooth and rewarding experience. Even had I not succeeded in being selected for the position, I would still offer the highest recommendation for his firm's services, for it was extremely satisfying to collaborate with Peter."

Dear Eilish,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for your support these last few weeks. I've had some uneasy experiences working with recruiters and recruitment agencies in the past, and you totally revamped the idea for me and have me believing that there's folks out there like yourself that make it their mission to make other people’s dream jobs come true!

You are such a superstar, and I can't thank you enough for your support, your preparation and your encouragement. 

You've helped me land a dream role and I'll always be grateful to you!

Cheers to fresh starts,

All the best,

Caroline
