What People Say

We know if we send new salespeople to Bob, they return a couple of days later with a clear understanding of sales structure. The courses delve quite deeply into each part of the sales process and it is notable how quickly those trainees show good questioning, objection-handling and closing skills.

Bob has also done courses for some of our more experienced salespeople. They have given very positive feedback and we have seen significant skill improvements.

In all cases, course delegates return energised, positive and excited to apply their new skills.

Just wanted to thank you for the calibre of candidates you’re sending through Ken, exactly the reason I sought you out after all these years. Very impressive stuff.

After being let down by the quality and return of various recruitment agencies, it was a breath of fresh air dealing with Carreras Lathane. I found their approach very consultative, listening to and actioning all aspects of my criteria for what I was looking for in my future employee. Carreras Lathane will be my first point of contact when I need to recruit in the future.

I think CLA Associates put the emphasis on quality not quantity when sending out candidates. I think their service is excellent and they always know exactly what I am looking for

Ken is an executive recruiter whom I worked with while I was in London. Ken helped me fill one senior position, and we had begun to work on a second when I began my transition to New York. I found him to be straightforward, knowledgeable, and effective, with a ‘can-do’ attitude and a very nice person besides.

It was a pleasure to work with you. You recommended excellent candidates for us to interview and your advice was very helpful. I expect our International territory will grow and look forward to working with you when this happens.

I would recommend speaking with Ken lathane at Carreras Lathane which is one of the leading, and in my mind the best, media recruitment consultancy in London.

Simon Taylor
Sales Director, Publicitas

Thank you for your appreciated efforts in identifying and introducing me to the right opportunity. Having worked (in my former Advertising Management role) closely with Carreras Lathane over the years, I was impressed with the professionalism and expedience that made the process particularly rewarding and enjoyable. I look forward very much to working with CLA to identify the people that will enable me to drive the business forward. Once again, sincere thanks!

You have restored my faith in recruitment consultants

Adrian Tripp
Chief Executive, Quest Media

I have worked with Carreras Lathane for nearly a year now and have been very pleased with the service. We needed a particular person with the right contacts and personality for a project , and they came up with exactly the right person for us and the magazine was published profitably. Since then they have sourced strong candidates for us who they have checked out and very little time has been wasted. I must say it has restored my faith in recruitment consultants that specialize in media sales people. “  We’re currently looking for an additional 4 members of staff and I suspect they will now all come via Carreras Lathane.
