  • Over the years, SD have consistently provided candidates of excellent calibre for various HR and talent roles. As trusted partners, they take the time to truly understand your needs, values, and leadership style. Their industry insights, data, and extensive talent network are invaluable. They are trusted partners and I’ve been able to build high performing teams with their candidates. As a Hiring Manager, I’ve always valued their honest and transparent feedback, and their ability to challenge my thinking, helping me approach recruitment from fresh perspectives to achieve the best possible outcomes.

  • Samuels Donegan is hands down the best HR recruitment agency in the market. Their wealth of knowledge about candidates, the industry, and their insightful feedback is what truly sets them apart. They've successfully placed multiple roles with us, and it's clear that their broad network and commitment to excellence are unmatched. The way they build relationships with both clients and candidates is a testament to their professionalism and will continue to make Samuels Donegan shine in the recruitment space.

  • Right from the first call, Samuels Donegan worked really hard to understand our organisation, the team, the role and the key skills and experience that would work well for us.  They asked fantastic questions and were clear in how the process would ideally work and what they needed from me. We ended up hiring not one but TWO of the candidates and could easily have hired the third too.  I absolutely will be working with the Samuels Donegan team again - so professional, so helpful and have epic talent on their books.
