Forensics Partner, Top 10 Firm, London
Through a long and complex partner hiring process, Charles brought clarity and plenty of expertise through his many connections and previous hires at senior levels. Even when I had my doubts, Charles was driven and resolute which gave me confidence in seeing through the process to a very successful conclusion.
I really felt he had my back in negotiation and our interests aligned, and as I shift from candidate to client in the future I will keep Charles in my corner. Such a refreshing change from the usual impersonal or inexperienced process from other firms.”

Non-Executive Chairman, National Law Firm
I was approached about a newly created role with one of Charles’ key clients who were embarking on an exciting growth journey. His knowledge of the client and wealth of experience in presenting the opportunity came through from day 1.
Importantly Charles invested the time to understand what I was seeking from a role and what value I could bring to ensure a good match for both parties.
He went the extra mile to keep me informed throughout the process with great candour and transparency, which led to a rapid and efficient process for all parties, and most importantly a successful match for both parties.

Charles was diligent and remained in touch throughout the process. I am extremely grateful for his help.”
Valuations Assistant Manager, Top 20, London
“I initially spoke to Charles on LinkedIn and he was keen to understand exactly what I was looking for. We discussed opportunities and was put forward to two different firms. Charles gave great insight into both businesses and from discussions prior to the interviews provided really good advice.
Senior Tax Manager, Boutique, Midlands
It was my first professional career move having spent 9 years at my previous employer straight from university, and as I went through the processes, I spoke to Charles consistently and had both honest and constructive chats about what both opportunities presented.
I would recommend Charles to anyone looking for a new role and opportunities. He was coherent throughout the whole process making it seamless and stressless”

Valuations Manager, Financial Advisory Business, London
“Charles has kept in touch with me over the past 10 years or so, during which I remained with one firm so not exactly a recruiter’s dream! Charles was patient and invested the time to get to know me and my career aspirations, offering suggestions and presenting opportunities along the way. He didn’t waste my time with roles that were too speculative or not in line with my ambitions. When the right position came up, Charles hand-held me through the process and towards the end, helped me to negotiate a very attractive package. I’m pleased to say I have no regrets and would wholeheartedly recommend Charles to those contemplating a move.”
M&A Partner, Top 10 Firm, Birmingham

Business Development Executive, Top 20, London
“I’d met with Charles on several occasions over the last few years. Each time I was happy in situ, but he patiently stayed connected and when I was ready to make a move he sprang into action on my behalf with enthusiastic vigour. This was my first career move using a recruitment consultant. Charles not only found me my dream role but was on hand to offer friendly advice and guidance throughout the process.”
Head of Capital Allowances, Tax Boutique, Birmingham
“This was my first move within the accountancy profession, and I found Charles to be professional and understanding. Charles took the time to understand the role I was looking for and only contacted me about those which really fit my criteria. I was kept very up to date with on any news with regular contact. I felt very supported with my transition and felt like I could ask any questions whether about the process or in general.
Assistant Tax Manager, East Midlands, Independent firm
“I have been placed twice by Adlestrop now and Charles would always be my ‘go to’ for advice and information on the market. Charles promptly arranged several interviews with high quality, well-matched firms and thoroughly prepared me to attend these meetings. Charles truly goes above and beyond in understanding the requirements and priorities of both clients and candidates like I have never seen with another recruiter. I have no hesitation in recommending Charles as the best connected and informed recruiter in the Midlands region.
Corporate Finance Associate, Corporate Finance Boutique, West Midlands
“Charles contacted me about a few roles over a period of a few years and accepted my rebuttals with good grace as I wasn’t looking for a move. The difference I sensed with Charles to some other recruiters was that he was selective in the roles he approached me about. I therefore had no hesitation in working with him when the time came that I was ready to listen to opportunities. Charles was friendly but professional throughout the process, proactive in moving things forward without being too pushy, contactable, willing to listen and talk things through as I wrestled with the decision of whether to move or not. I’m enjoying my new role – thanks Charles for the help in getting there!
Senior Tax Consultant, Independent Firm, Midlands
“My expertise is niche within the Professional Services environment and consequently it is difficult for the right opening to be identified and materialise. Charles and I met several times and he maintained regular contact with me. My confidence in Charles that he fully understood exactly what I needed never faltered. Charles identified a potential role, but key to successfully securing the role was his regular dialogue with my new employer and firming up the approach and obtaining their commitment at exactly the right time. Charles resolute approach succeeded, and he differs from many recruiters, who over promise and under deliver. I cannot recommend Charles highly enough.
Risk Director, Top 50, Birmingham
“Charles was great to work with, clearly very knowledgeable of S&W, their recruitment process and the role that he supported me to get. I had a few challenges with going due to Covid-19 and regulator processes, Charles helped steer me through these and was always available to support me. I would definitely recommend him!
Corporate Recovery Partner, Top 10, Bristol
“I highly recommend Charles in sourcing the perfect role for anyone looking to move. Charles took the time to listen to what was important to me and only presented opportunities that he genuinely thought would be a great fit. Charles’ experience and connections meant that he was able to find me a fantastic position even during a global pandemic. Throughout the whole process I found Charles to be friendly and supportive, he kept me in the loop at all times and was really helpful with interview preparation and feedback.
Senior Audit Manager, Top 10, London
“Charles and I first met for a casual coffee 3/4yrs ago to discuss a position that wasn’t of interest to me at the time. However, Charles kept me in mind and called earlier this year with an opportunity to move to a great firm in a unique position and in a role that I was very well suited to, even though it was a change of industry and job role for me Charles knew I was the right person for the job, based on our earlier meeting. Charles has great tenacity and is direct in his style, which I appreciate. I am grateful to Charles for enabling me to make this recent move.
Director of Business Development, Top 10, Bristol
“I was not particularly looking for a move but Charles‘ relaxed style suited me as we together went on a journey through a number of discussions which allowed me to understand what was important for me and what I really value in my career. Charles was patient in getting to know me. His knowledge of the local market is really strong and he has some great relationships and contacts. This was my first move since graduating and I was not sure what to expect. Not only was Charles supportive through the decision-making process but also throughout my notice period right up to starting the new role. I’ve really appreciated the support from Charles and look forward to an exciting journey ahead.
Tax Director, Top 10 Firm, Birmingham
“I first worked with Charles Magill in 2015 when I was looking to move back into the accountancy field after a long spell in the legal sector. Working together over a period of months he helped me shape exactly what I was looking for and then ultimately enabled me to secure this role. Since then we have maintained contact, not in a “recruiter/candidate” relationship, but more of a career development advisor and critical friend as my role has developed. Charles’ input and advice has genuinely helped as I have continued my own development journey within the profession. Charles and his team have also kept me appraised of candidates in the market place as I have been recruiting my own team.
Tax Partner, Top 20, Midlands
“Charles provided an excellent and very professional service on behalf of Adlestrop. When I initially spoke to them I knew what sort of direction I wanted to go in but was unsure how to find the best opportunity for my career. Adlestrop guided me through the whole recruitment process and made sure they found the right job role to enable me to further my career. They met with me to find out about what I had done so far and what I wanted to do in the future. Before I met potential employers, Adlestrop made sure I was prepared and were always at the end of the phone if I needed any further help. I am really pleased with the job that Adlestrop found for me and I am looking forward to starting it next month. I would highly recommend Adlestrop and would definitely use them again if I wanted a change of job in the future.
Tax Trainee, Boutique Firm, Birmingham
“Charles is very professional and approachable. He understood my needs from a personal and professional perspective as I wanted an progressive position near to where I live.

I highly recommend.

“The biggest difference between Adlestrop and other recruitment firms is I truly believe they wanted what was best for me as an individual. They were not pushy and took time to get to know me in order to help me understand what the next step in my career should be. This way they were able to find roles that would suit me personally as well as professionally. I would recommend them to others.
Corporate Finance Executive, Independent Firm

Audit Partner, Large Independent, London
“Adlestrop have been a great support in making a decision to change roles. Charles advice is always specific to you and where you are looking to go. Charles spends the time to get to know you and never introduces you a role unless it meets your future plans and goals.
Senior Manager, Top 20, Birmingham
“Charles is a recruiter with a difference! Adlestrop Consuling helped me in securing my CFO role through his collaborative, yet professional approach. My job search came with some key challenges comprising multiple changes which included a new sector, different organization size as well as a new location. Unlike many recruiters, Adlestrop Consulting focuses on building a strong relationship with their candidates, which helps formulating a good understanding of candidate and their needs, providing a sound platform for appropriate role identification. As part of my quest for a new opportunity, Charles helped identifying the right opportunity, based on my skills and experience and more importantly aligned to the needs of my new organization. It has been a pleasure working with Charles and Adlestrop Consulting. I would highly recommend Charles for his approach, which brings a good balance of servicing his candidate and client needs.
Placement of Chief Financial Officer, Engineering Consultancy, Midlands
“Charles approached me regarding a specific role at a time that I wasn’t considering a move and he was thankfully very sensitive to that fact. He was very accommodating in giving his time to meet me and speak with me and, given the profile of the role, in ensuring that it was something that could work well for both parties. We spoke on a number of occasions through the process and Charles’ advice, delivered in a friendly yet professional manner, I considered to be a very valuable part of me preparing myself for a significant career move. I would certainly recommend using Charles both as an employer looking for a candidate as well as a candidate looking for a new role. Thank you Charles!

Corporate Auditor, Automotive Manufacturer, Midlands
“Adlestrop were outstanding at helping me to secure an exciting role. I have been talking with them regularly for a couple of years and find their approach professional, appropriate and therefore fairly unique in the market. The strength of their relationship with this client was key to me being able to enter the recruitment process, secure an interview and ultimately join the team. Their knowledge of the business helped, but what particularly stood out was the efforts they made and time they spent to support me in my transition and ensure everything ran smoothly. I felt well looked after. The most important thing therefore is that Adlestrop present a service you feel you can trust. I’d highly recommend speaking with them.
Globalisation Senior Analyst, Automotive Manufacturer, Midlands

Audit Executive, Top 4 Firm, Midlands
“Adlestrop had been in contact for a number of years and their approach was unique compared to other recruiters which is why as soon as I began to contemplate a career move, they were the first and only recruiter I contacted. Adlestrop were very knowledgeable about the local firms and were able to offer a lot of helpful advice on what possible steps my career could take and which firms would provide this. Having not written a CV or attended an interview for many years, I was unsure about how to approach this. Adlestrop were there to provide advice and support. They were always contactable by email, phone and text, and would always respond quickly. Adlestrop were also around to provide advice when job offers were received and when it came to resigning from my current position. Adlestrop have been an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Audit Senior, Top 15, Midlands
“I was extremely pleased with the service obtained from Adlestrop Consulting. Being pro-active and using their network, it took just 3 days for them to line up 4 interviews for me with key decision makers for roles that suited my criteria. As a result of Adlestrop’s tailored approach I was in new employment within 2 weeks of first submitting my CV. Overall, I highly recommend exclusively using Adlestrop Consulting.
Corporate Finance Analyst, Corporate Finance Boutique, Birmingham
“Adlestrop have been extremely helpful in allowing me to progress my career, and have successfully found me a role that will be extremely helpful in developing my career. The process began with a face to face meeting in which I was asked about where I saw my career ending up, and how I wanted to get there. Adlestrop were extremely knowledgeable about the market, and were able to quickly give me a realistic target for the roles I could achieve. Adlestrop were able to get me interviews at several firms that matched my expectations, eventually finding me the right one.
Corporate Finance Executive, Top 10 Firm, Midlands
“Adlestrop Consulting are truly first class. From our first meeting, they made it clear that they wanted to get to know me as an individual, whilst providing me with excellent advice for my career, as opposed to force-feeding me with their current mandates and losing interest if nothing matched. Their refreshing approach led me to dealing with Adlestrop on an exclusive basis; no one else came close. Adlestrop took the time to really understand my experience and qualifications, rather than take the usual ACA-one-size-fits-all approach I had previously come across from many so-called consultants. They are highly professional advisors first and foremost, who are remarkably knowledgeable about the corporate finance labour market, across London and the Regions. Although my move into industry did not happen through Adlestrop (as it happened directly), I cannot recommend highly enough. If you are thinking about your next career move or looking for a knowledgeable, patient sounding board, don’t think about contacting Adlestrop. Just do it.
Finance Director, Industry, East of England
“I was introduced to Adlestrop through a friend in the accountancy profession, it was a great recommendation and one that I would sure to make to others! Adlestrop took a genuine interest in me and my career aspirations giving well-structured and exclusive career guidance allowing me to focus on the best path possible. We made some small but important changes to my CV before putting in front of potential employers. Adlestrop are very well networked and introduced me to key decision makers within leading accountancy firms due to their strong relationships with them. Throughout the whole process I was reassured on any uncertainties and Adlestrop were always at the end of the phone to talk things over, it was only a few weeks before I was offered my dream job.
“Adlestrop were very helpful and knowledgable in their sector of work and helped me to source my next role. They were very detailed in their advice and very approachable. Adlestrop were thorough in helping me to prepare for my new role.

“Adlestrop are exceptional recruiters. They never send over job roles unless they believe they are correct, not only for someone’s current skills and qualifications but also for their future career aspirations. They guided me through the entire process when securing my role, providing support and assistance from the initial interview to the final partner interview. Adlestrop were instrumental in orchestrating my relocation back from London to Birmingham. They differ from other recruiters in terms of dedication, time commitment and willingness to listen to my requirements. I would recommend Adlestrop Consulting to anybody who is looking for a personalised recruiter who will not only find you a role or job, but will also manage your career.

“Adlestrop recently placed me in a new role after taking the time to get to know me and what I wanted out of my career. They only put me forward for jobs that they thought were right for me and suited my skills and personality. After getting in touch with Adlestrop, initially after a recommendation, they were very patient while I then had to put my job search on hold for personal reasons, staying in touch without being pushy at all. The support provided whilst I was going for interviews and resigning from my current position was invaluable.

Transaction Services Manager
“My experience with Adlestrop has been first rate, and I would have no hesitation in recommending them or using them again in future. It quickly became clear during my first meeting with them that they are a cut-above other recruitment firms. Their knowledge of the sector and market intelligence was superb, they knew all the key players in my particular specialism, and already had established relationships with many of these. They were able to open doors for me that would have likely been closed otherwise, and guided me expertly through the process from start to finish. I am now about to embark on the next exciting chapter of my career – thanks again!!
Valuations assistant manager, Top 10 Firm, Midlands
“Adlestrop Consulting’s approach has been extremely user friendly and continues to be incredibly supportive. They listened to what I wanted from my next role, using their market knowledge and connections to get me in front of the right people to meet those criteria and offered fantastic advice and support throughout the process.

Business Development Manager, Top 4 Firm, Midlands
“Adlestrop Consulting’s approach has been first class. Unlike many of the recruitment agents that have contacted me who were trying to sell me any job that they had, they took the time to understand my ambitions and where I wanted to take my career. After having discussed all the options and given me their advice as the best path forward, I performed further research which showed that their recommendation would be the most beneficial at this time in my career. Adlestrop moved quickly to provide guidance on my CV and after a couple of amendments, my CV was sent out to the two companies we had narrowed down and within hours I had an interview set up. They then spent time going through interview techniques and were always readily available to discuss anything. After a successful interview, Adlestrop continued to be incredibly supportive and were a pleasure to deal with even after starting at my new job. I will look forward to using them in the future as they demonstrated their awareness of the market and delivered exceptional service throughout the process.
Audit Assistant Manager, Top 4 Firm.
“Adlestrop are exceptionally professional and they clearly care about their clients and candidates from the start to the end, which made the process incredibly easy.

I have recommended Adlestrop Consulting to friends in the past and will continue to do so.
Private Client Tax Senior Manager, Top 10 Accountancy Firm, Midlands

It was clear some thought had been put into whether this was a relevant job for me and it was exactly what I was looking for. From the point I expressed an interest in the opportunity I trusted Adlestrop to make sure I got the interview so I could put my case forward. They did this and the process seemed relatively straight forward which I suspect is in part due to the effort Adlestrop was putting in behind the scenes to promote my case.
Associate Director – Banking
“I have no hesitation recommending Adlestrop Consulting. Adlestrop are much more than a recruitment consultant. They have regularly introduced me to useful contacts in my sectors and in so doing have added real value to my network.

We built up a good relationship and I would recommend them highly.
Global M&A Director – Large Corporate
“I have recently returned to private practice after a number of years away. As a tax specialist, I am not in the legal mainstream, but Adlestrop very quickly grasped what I was interested in doing and drew up a list of firms which he thought could offer me the opportunities I was looking for. It was clear that Adlestrop had excellent access to the key decision makers in those firms and the vast majority were interested in talking to me. A shortlist of three resulted from those discussions. Adlestrop’s input was extremely valuable in deciding where to go and I joined one of the firms as a tax partner in June 2007. Adlestrop’s contribution to my return to private practice was invaluable and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
