Testimonials

'I do not compare London Talent to other recruiting agencies, Akashia’s support with restructuring the senior executive team at The Mandrake was instrumental. She not only assisted in placing candidates that now naturally work well together but throughout nurtured the ethos and culture at The Mandrake. I trust her opinion, she didn’t waste my time, receiving feedback across departments was tactful, her work style is unobtrusive and we found her a backbone of support to us maintaining a healthy staff moral and culture. Always positive and always solution oriented.' Mikail Goek / MD, The Mandrake

'Akashia was a star manager working for us in NYC and we took her to Las Vegas where she figured out the market and helped us build the strongest brand in town out there at the time. She has a tremendous sense of what will and what won’t work and has a great read on staff and how they’ll benefit the business (or not). She’s committed, hardworking, honest and takes on tasks as if she’s an owner. I wish she’d move back to the US so we could let her run a bunch of projects for us because she’s that good and that beloved.' David Rabin / Partner at The Lambs Club, JIMMY at the James, American Bar, The Skylark, Cafe Clover and lead consultant for The Dorsey (Las Vegas)

'Akashia, As you know we won a Michelin star this year... I wished to say a great THANK YOU for having the vision and true natural instinct to know we would have been a great fit... you made this happen! I have to say you are certainly the most professional, classy and honest recruiter that I’ve come across around the world, and was lucky to have found you at that time as I had so much noise going on from different people after winning the Roux scholarship, you seemed like a breath of fresh air. Once again, a massive thank you to you and your team.' One Michelin Starred Executive Head Chef
