Back in my banking days, if you ever uttered the letters ‘KYC’ you would be greeted by a barrage of moans and groans; it’s still very much like this in...

A perfect example of period property with luxuriously fitted carpets.

Lee has worked in residential recruitment since late 2015 after working in the property sector for almost seven years himself. Whilst our entire team’s food bin/hoover, he’s a self-declared Asian food addict. Historically pooch obsessed; now with a fur baby of his own, he’s got the situation under control.

Bradley at GKR has found me the perfect role in a fantastic company while making the whole process surprisingly easy. I have no doubt that I have made the right decision, and I’m very thankful to have been introduced to the opportunity by Bradley.
From point of initial contact he has been all over the procedure very efficiently and professionally, keeping in contact regularly and most important of all getting me into the best suited role possible.
What was daunting prospect of moving up to London and a job change has been made and exciting time, as well as providing me a fantastic opportunity.
I would highly recommend Bradley and his team to anyone looking for their next job or a new employee.
Thanks again!

I was referred to Rose at GKR by an interviewer who worked for a Mews property specialist company. Rose was an absolute delight to work with. She was professional, proactive, supportive and got me my first job in London within a WEEK of working with one another. She went the extra mile and gave me valuable interview advice and kept me in the loop regarding feedback from the companies I Interviewed at. It reached the stage that Rose even calculated how long my journey to the offices would take, so that I could focus on my preparation and have a stress free job hunting experience. I’ve never come across a more authentic, professional and hard working recruiter before. Rose deserves all the success that comes her way and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new role.

Michael was nothing short of incredible in helping me secure a new role. He was proactive, responsive, supportive and has provided great advice throughout the whole process, from putting me forward for a great opportunity right through to the end of my 3 month probation period. Michael always went the extra mile and has made transitioning jobs stress free and enjoyable. Can’t recommend GKR recruitment enough.

Thank you Rose & Brad! They really went above and beyond. They are both exceptional at what they do. I worked more so with Rose who helped me get the right role so quickly. She gave me so much of her time, advising me and helping me explore my options, and ultimately secure the wonderful role I am in now. She is very professional, supportive and knowledgeable and to top it off shes a lovely person too! It is so appreciated and I can’t recommend GKR enough.

I had an exceptional experience with GKR London, Jason Ross in particular made the usually stressful process of looking for a new role, seamless, professional and quick! He found a placement for me within 1 week and a half and has continued to touch base and offer support in my new role. Would definitely recommend and can’t thank Jason enough for all of his efforts!!

It's an absolute pleasure to get to know Rose since 2018, I can't thank her enough for the effort she made for me. She takes her responsibilities very serious and she will take an extra mile to work with you, her advices have helped me so much. She answered all my queries every time I messaged her, even if it was out of office hours she always replied politely and showed empathy during my stressful time, she helped me get my dream job and I am super happy, here is my first cup of coffee at work

My experience with GKR was excellent! Olivia Davis is an outstanding recruiter and I love her approach. She was interested in getting to know me whilst getting to know what is important for my career and next company. Her weekly follow ups went above my expectations which greatly alleviated my stress with the job hunt. She understands and cares about what my concerns were so I didn't feel like just another candidate. Thanks for placing me in my new role! I would highly recommend GKR for anyone in the properties industry for their next career move.

From start to finish my experience with GKR has been amazing. From my very first conversation with Rose Lock, I was instantly put at ease having not looked at changing roles in 11 years.
Rose supported me throughout my journey, making me feel prepared, supported and confident. She is a mentor providing knowledge but is personable and really listens and genuinely cares. Rose is exceptional at her job and a delight to deal with. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I am now looking forward to starting my amazing new role and its all thanks to Rose!
