What Clients Say About Us

"I have worked with a number of financial recruitment and headhunting firms over the years and none have impressed me as much as PER. The difference is the teams understanding of the industry. No one else gets close" Top Private Equity Firm

"Having given PER a brief as to what we were looking for, we were impressed with the speed of response and the breadth and quality of candidates that they put forward to us. We found PER's approach to be very flexible and open which enabled us to develop a deeper rapport with potential candidates than is often the case when dealing with
recruitment consultants" Leading UK Investor

"Thanks for your support with our successful searches" European Mid Cap Buyout Fund

"PER genuinely understood our business, style and personnel requirements. They ran a tight search and selection process, and generated a small group of capable individuals, all of whom we could have hired. This is a rather stark contrast to the typical, generalist recruitment model. We would happily use them again" Mid Market Private Equity Firm

"We worked closely with PER during our recent recruitment process and we are delighted with the result, the appointment of two strong new Associates. We valued PER's support in thinking through our own preferred candidate profile and once this was established they sourced a strong list of suitable people for us to meet. The research was done efficiently and the organisation around interview plans, and follow up on offer terms was very effective. We have been impressed by PER's industry knowledge and candidate pool and by their keen understanding of our business and specific requirements" German Buyout Fund

PER is amongst one of the most thoughtful recruitment firms our company has worked with in the Asia region over our decade long history.

The seamless internal coordination and accountability allowed for a smoothly run process. Our company continues to be impressed with PER’s personable professionals, and counts PER as one of the top recruitment firms in the private equity industry. Global Private Equity Placement Firm

"PER understood us and our business model very well. We feel that from day one the PER team represented us as a great "Ambassador" in the world of high potential candidates. They ran two parallel search and selection processes, and generated a small group of relevant, capable individuals and we have been delighted to fill both roles successfully" German Focussed Mid Market Fund

"PERs service and candidate selection has been excellent"   UK Based Placement Agent

We will definitely use PER for future recruitment assignments"   UK Venture Capital Fund

"I wanted to thank PER once more for your assistance in our search for an acquisition officer / asset manager for our new office in Mexico City. You and your team provided a very professional service, I was very impressed with your consistent follow up emails and calls and your availability at all times. I hope we will have to opportunity to work together with again" Global Real Estate Fund

"PER helped us plan and execute our recruitment process from end to end, with advice on the preferred candidate profile relative to our existing team structure, followed by a detailed market mapping exercise to screen for the best shortlist and then they ran a tight programme of focused interviews. Their input on the negotiation of terms was critical and we have been delighted with the appointment we made. We have been impressed by the depth of industry knowledge and the quality of the network PER revealed. They also quickly demonstrated a strong understanding of our own culture and team dynamics and were a professional and enjoyable partner to work with. We have since referred them on to a number of our own industry contacts" DACH Mid Market Buyout Fund

"PER genuinely understood our business, style and personnel requirements. Key for us was also PER's understanding of the private equity industry and the specific requirements of an Investor Relations position. Also, given the very limited number of possible candidates in such a niche function of the private equity industry in France, PER was able to identify talented candidates willing to relocate. They ran a tight search and selection process in a timely manner - arrangement of the logistics around fixing interviews and managing candidates, for us, was also extremely efficient. We would happily use them again" Leading European Credit Fund

"I have worked with PER for a number of years now across different level roles in different areas. I have always been pleased with the quality of the candidates they submit and the fact that they listen to what we are looking for - quite unique and refreshing in the recruitment world" Leading Mezzanine Investor
