Testimonials.
“Discovery Bank at the beginning of the year reached out to Humankind after the existing preferred suppliers were not able to provide candidates with highly specialised and scarce information technology skills needed for our fully digitalised Banking platforms.
The teams ability to understand the highly technical brief and to find candidates that aligned to the culture and purpose of our highly dynamic business enabled Humankind to close out on the placement of these two scarce and deep technical system specialist jobs.
Under the leadership of Humankind founder Jessi Tomkinson, her team of dedicated and skilled professionals uniquely look to build long term business relationships rather than chasing a quick placement. So if you are looking for a team that will take the time to understand your business, the work that needs to be done by a candidate and the type of candidate profile to fit your team / company culture to ensure the fastest possible time to productivity then I would highly recommend Humankind and Jessi Tomkinson.”
“Humankind assisted me with excellent service, stuck to their turnaround times and provided top quality candidates that matched the brief. They are a trusted partner who excelled in their role, provided great insight and was willing to challenge preconceived ideas.”
“They understand our culture, Can match candidates to job spec’s very well and Turnaround time is good.Humankind assists with our specialist roles(actuarial, analytic, data science and Senior roles within our organization)We have made numerous placements through them.I would definitely recommend HumanKind as an agency of choice.”
