Testimonials

Kathryn Jackson-Day, HR director, Bacardi Global BrandsThe MBS Group has demonstrated a keen ability to understand the nuances of Bacardi Global Brands. Their team has been able to inject best-in-class marketing talent into the business, introducing candidates who not only fit our fast-developing culture but who also have the potential to become our future senior leaders. They are confident in their own judgement and are able to challenge our thinking where necessary, making it a true partnership.

Chris Davies, CEO, HSS Hire Services GroupI first met Moira and The MBS Group team as a candidate. That did not lead to a job but it did lead to a real respect for the professionalism and approach they take. Over the years I have been a returning client and have always been heartened by the pragmatic and sensible approach. The MBS Group gets what you want - not what they want, a quality that is sometimes lacking in this field. Whether candidate or client you are equally valued and in my experience that leads to a good outcome for all parties.

Jamie Oliver, chairman, Jamie Oliver EnterprisesThe search was very quick and an extremely easy process. The MBS Group provided incredible applicants and over-delivered both on the level of candidates they attracted and the skills and experience they could bring to my organisation. They found candidates with a strong cultural fit to our business and, as someone with no experience of hiring CEOs, I found they provided a neutral and unbiased view during the search and held my hand to ensure that I made the best decisions at every point of the process.

Geoffroy de la Bourdonnaye, chief executive, LibertyMoira is the most perceptive executive search consultant in the consumer sector that I’ve ever worked with. She and her team have been the most unbelievable partners in enabling me to bring world-class executives in to deliver the strategy for Liberty. They really understand the industry and our business, and the team they have helped me to build is both diverse and high-performing.

Lulu Guinness, founder, Lulu GuinnessThe thing about Moira Benigson is that she just 'gets it': she understood our market, she understood our business and, most importantly, she understood the kind of chief executive that could best drive our brand going forward. Needless to say, the recruitment process is always full of surprises - some good and some bad - yet Moira and her team - with their creativity, contacts and experience were always there to support, advise and guide us. I would recommend MBS wholeheartedly; in fact I wouldn't recommend anyone else

Justin King, chief executive, Sainsbury'sI have known The MBS Group for many years. Before I joined Sainsbury’s they would approach me regularly about interesting job opportunities.

Glenda Dusome, Corporate Recruitment Director, Six SensesThe COO role was a very important appointment for Six Senses and we knew that we wanted to bring in someone extraordinary. We were recommended to use The MBS Group for this search because of their knowledge of the luxury industry and I followed my instinct. Tracy led the search with her team and we worked together in partnership to create a seamless process. I found that the MBS Group fully understood our brief and culture fit; they wanted us to meet the very best candidates for the role and that is why we were successful.
