“An eye for the finer details”
Sam found me my new role before I was even aware it existed. Dealing with Sam was a pleasure, she was approachable, professional and took care of everything. She excelled at taking away the stress of finding another job and matched me up to a new role within my geographic region. Sam had knowledge of vacancies that were not externally advertised and without her I would not of been able to advance my career to the next level. Having been at the same company for nearly a decade Sam was confident in matching my suitability to another company and role. I can wholeheartedly recommend Sam and her services and I’m truly grateful for her encouragement and help. Without her it is likely I’d still be stuck in a rut, all to comfortable with a sense of dissatisfaction and stagnation. Once again thank you Sam I’m glad you found me.

Excellent experience with iConsult. I found it to be an extremely professional company who know and understand the geotechnical industry – unlike a lot of other recruitment agencies. Sam kept me fully informed and up to date throughout every step of my career move. Highly recommended.

Ever professional, dedicated and motivated she ensured I was thoroughly informed about the new opportunity offered to myself and made sure I was prepared for and supported every step of the way in securing such a fantastic position. The company she represented on their behalf had glowing opinions of Sam Davies and her team and the upmost trust in their company IConsult Technical to deliver the ideal candidate for the position. I cannot thank Sam Davies enough for securing a favourable future for myself. I would thoroughly recommend Sam Davies and company if you are looking for a new leap in your career.

I have been trying to find a job for a couple of months before Samantha found me and in this process I worked with many other recruiters who were not able to make any progress in my quest of finding a job. Not only that she helped me find a job, she helped me have a great leap in my career that I could not imagine having without her. The best thing I can say about her is that she is quick and efficient. She has a great ability to understand what kind of worker you are and what would be the great fit just for you. After looking through my CV and having a conversation with me, she knew exactly what I wanted from my job and the kind of working environment that would be a perfect match for me. Thanks to her I am turning a new and a better page in my career and I could not be happier! She also helped with everything along the process and she was very kind and understanding of all my needs. I would recommend her to companies and people looking for employment without any hesitation.

Gwawr was extremely professional and effective during my application process. Her in-depth knowledge and networking abilities allowed me to move forward with my career and secure the job I’ve been trying to get for a long time. Couldn’t recommend Gwawr more – 10/10!

I’ve only known Samantha for a short time, and in that short time she has proven to be an extremely valuable, kind-hearted, and selfless individual. the advice she gives is fantastic and she inspires confidence in those who want to pursue or progress a career based in Geoscience. She points you in the right direction, helps organise meetings with employers, motivates her clients to meet there desired goals, and is a pleasure to interact with. I can honestly say if it were not for Samantha, I would not have made such a leap in my career progression as I have very recently. I would recommend anyone who is struggling to find that position they are looking for or feels they lack the skills or knowledge to get it…she will certainly prove you wrong! I’d like to say a massive thank you to Samantha, and to keep up what you’re doing, you’re amazing

Environmental Sciences Graduate
I’ve known Sam for many years – being on both side of the searching; she has sourced candidates for me and recently presented an opportunity that I have taken up. In either situation, Sam communicates and understands the client’s needs; she knows the industry, understands people and can match the fit. As a recruiter she does her job – sourcing appropriate candidates that fit the brief – you don’t get anyone put forward just to hit the contact targets. She is tenacious and works very hard. Thanks Sam.
– Tim M
Technical Director
Gwawr was very helpful throughout my recruitment process. Before getting in contact with her I didn’t have much luck with job applications, she put me in touch with my employer and had an interview arranged for me within a few days. She was quick to reply at all times and keep me updated on the progress of my application, whilst providing great advice that I believe helped me secure the position. A massive thanks to you, Gwawr for your support and professionalism!

Sam is incredibly professional and always discrete along with being enthusiastic about the companies and people with whom she is working. Sam was willing to talk at a time that was convenient for myself and feedback was always constructive. She is clearly passionate about her role and interacting with people and seems eager to help find a good fit for both the companies and candidates so that both gain value from the placement.

Sam makes a difference. Her easy going approach to arranging interviews with prospective employers put me at ease, she was knowledgeable in the technical when querying role descriptions and a pleasure to deal with. I would certainly use Sam again, both in searching for new opportunities and to locate strategic hires into my organisation.

Gwawr is friendly and very helpful. She helped me through the process of acquiring a role with a great company. She would keep me updated and in the loop regarding the role without having to chase her up. I am very grateful for her support, she’s an absolute credit to the profession.
– Leroy N
Graduate Project Engineer
Excellent and professional attitude from start to finish. Samantha went above and beyond to make sure that I had the best possible chance of being successful in my career hunt. As a graduate, I found the process very helpful. In my job hunt with Samantha, she made contact with me on Tuesday and managed to get me an interview for the Thursday. She kept in touch throughout the interview process and within a week I had received an offer from the company. I believe as a graduate, this process would not have gone as smooth as it did. Samantha offered outstanding service which enabled me to land my desired job. I would 100% recommend.
– Taku P

My experience with IConsult was very fortunate and fruitful! Sam and her colleagues helped me to secure a role of geotechnical engineer in the prestigious company and assisted throughout all the process keeping both sides very well informed. As the result I signed a contract already in two weeks after being offered to apply for this job. Sam Davies provides a vital communication bridge between employers and candidates that effectively makes the liaison between parties smooth and productive!

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic I was let go by by former employer. Fortunately Sam found me on linked in and told me about a job within a geo environmental consultancy and managed to arrange an interview within me notice period. I have been offered a position within the company and cannot thank Sam enough for arranging everything. The communication was clear and consistent with Sam throughout and I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a job within environmental engineering consultancy.

Sam from iConsult was very friendly and professional. She found me a great role close to home which has helped improve my work life balance and salary package. Would definately recommend iConsult.
– Cassandra E
Lead Project Geologist at APPLIED GEOLOGY LIMITED
Well I wasn’t looking to change my job but Sam convinced me that it was worth an initial chat with a consultancy looking to fill a vacancy… and couple of months later I am about to join them! Throughout the process, Sam has remained very communicative, professional, personable and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend contacting Sam if you are a geoenvironmental professional looking for work or to change your current role. I understand that many of the vacancies are not available on the open jobs market.
