Artemis Clarke Omdömen 

Working with the team at Artemis Clarke to apply for a fractional FD role was a great mix of strong admin, great information, responsiveness and professionalism.

I can see why the client chose them for this key role.

I hope to have the chance to work with the team again in the near future.

Taking on my first fractional role was a new experience for me, and the entire process was handled professionally from start to finish. Communication was excellent throughout, and I always felt supported rather than navigating the process alone.

The recruitment process was thorough yet fair, and the team took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for. Their attention to my requirements was reflected in my first placement, which has been an excellent fit and is going very well so far.

I would highly recommend the team to anyone considering a fractional role, particularly if they value a supportive, professional, and personalised recruitment experience.

Artemis Clarke’s approach to finding talent is extremely refreshing. Having been through the entire process myself from start to finish, it was amazing to feel like an effort was being made to actually get to know you and fully understand your skills, rather than a basic CV review which is the method more commonly employed by other companies. Thanks to everyone, and hope to do business with you soon!

This was my first experience of a fractional finance role and reflected the dynamic nature of the Artemis Clarke process. Key information was given to me and there was no time delay in meeting the client and getting to work. The placement is a quality role in a good company, with a hands on approach and an opportunity to make a difference by reviewing procedures through a fresh set of eyes. There is partnership feel between all parties; myself, Artemis Clarke and the client.

I had an excellent experience working with Kate, Jane, Nic and Rob throughout my recent move into a Head of Finance role. As a job hunter, Artemis Clarke were supportive, patient yet diligent, proactive and a friendly bunch to deal with.

I approached them after seeing an advert for a role. Unlike other firms, they contacted me swiftly and assessed the mutual compatibility of the role and me.

The team explained the steps of the process and guided me through some professional assessments, explaining the purpose and outcome from each.

I’m very grateful for their support in securing a role that is an excellent fit, and I would highly recommend them to both candidates and employers looking for a knowledgeable and reliable recruitment partner.

We recently partnered with Artemis Clarke to recruit a new Fractional Finance Director for our business. We found them to be very efficient and flexible and the candidates they presented were highly qualified, experienced and vetted to ensure they matched our strategic requirements. Throughout the interview process, the team were extremely responsive and took great care to stay close to both us and the candidates and the hiring process was very smooth. We have no hesitation in recommending Kate and Rob for high-level finance recruitment and will certainly use their services again.

I’d like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to everyone else at Artemis Clarke for their proactive support throughout the last few months. I think this sets you apart from almost everyone else in your industry- one that seems to have little or no empathy for what candidates have to go through and it is to your eternal credit.

Artemis Clarke provided 1st class service supporting our small charity appoint a Finance Manager. They shared advice freely, with no hassle and facilitated candidate testing so smoothly with a short turnaround. The test was such a helpful part of the process and the candidates fed back that they enjoyed it!

Artemis Clarke were very professional and easy to deal with; in particular the video interviews were useful and helped to shorten our recruitment process overall. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again for specialist senior financial roles.

Artemis Clarke are accountants by training so know what questions to ask and do a thorough set of tests to ensure only quality candidates are presented.

Their service was absolutely flawless, from the assessment process all the way through to post hire check-ins. Their candidate screening freed up so much time for our company and ensured that only the right fits were progressed to interview. As they are accountants themselves, they knew the right questions to ask and provided us with videos of first stage interviews that they held for us. We would definitely work with them again.

Directly and indirectly, we have used Artemis to assist with recruiting and found their approach to be excellent in style and substance. From the screening of potential candidates and the aptitude testing, to proactive liaison with both parties and making sure a deal is done on mutually acceptable terms. The relevant candidates are all still in post several years later.

My favourite thing about Kate and her team at Artemis Clarke is their strong sense of morals. It comes through in everything they do — from their rigorous assessment processes, which ensure they’re truly filtering for the best talent, to the level of care they take in understanding the needs of businesses and their owners.

This is a business built on a deep understanding of people. They get skillsets, motivations and, last but not least, finance — not from theory, but from first-hand experience.

From the moment you engage with them, it’s clear they’re genuinely invested in the people they work with and committed to building relationships that last — not simply completing a placement.

Scale-ups don't have spare cash to lose, so spend it with a proven agency that I can genuinely say has your best interests at heart. Highly recommended.

Kate recruited me to a permanent senior finance role after a relocation and without her I can honestly say that I wouldn’t have found the role.
She had an innate understanding of what was required for the business and could see it was a great match to what I was looking for.
The initial positioning of the job would not have attracted me, but I spent 3 happy years in a great role as a result of her insight!

Kate and the team at Artemis Clarke did a super job of matching me to permanent FD position that was ideal for me, bringing together a number of areas of my interest and expertise into one neat role.

Kate and the team helped us find our new Group Finance Director in a difficult market with a limited talent pool.

What was really helpful was the ability to shortlist individuals by screening their video interviews where the team at Artemis Clarke asked all the questions to help us decide who to take forward.
The pragmatic advice and guidance from Kate and the team was very helpful, what was great was that the team were objective in their advice which helped the decision makers.

We have now found, through Artemis Clarke, our Group FD who has proven to be invaluable.

Kate and team at Artemis Clarke met every requirement for the recruitment of a new company Finance Director.
A bespoke recruitment campaign was applied following Kate gaining a clear understanding of our company and needs, with a number of suitable candidates put forward to us for our interview in a short time frame.
The upfront CV, summary information (including aptitude test), and the video introduction for the candidates, were all extremely valuable to enable our shortlisting of potential candidates for the role.
Highly recommended A***

In all my interactions with Artemis Clarke I found them to be both very professional but also most approachable. They had a clear understanding of the role and the type of person their client was seeking and were able to articulate that to me. The fact that Kate is a Chartered Accountant with considerable experience in Commerce and Industry also make the interactions much easier as she has a deep understanding of the functions of a Finance department in a business.

Great working with Kate and team at Artemis Clarke as a Fractional FD. Always looking to support with opportunities and a really friendly, open and honest environment.

Kate has restored my faith in recruitment consultants. This is how it should be done. She spent time shortlisting and finding four good candidates for our company bookkeeper role. She prepared tests and devised a second interview process that blended with our existing practice. She took part in all the interviews and took an active interest in making sure we selected the right one - but in truth we could have taken any of them and made it work. Would definitely recommend and would use Artemis Clarke again.
