Joe at Fintalent went above and beyond throughout the entire process. From our first conversation to quick check-ins, even after I was offered the first role he put me forward for, he was proactive, responsive and genuinely invested in finding the right fit.
There are plenty of recruiters out there, but Joe is well ahead in how he thinks and approaches the market. He’s strategic, thoughtful and takes the time to properly understand you as a candidate rather than simply matching you to a job description.
A pleasure to deal with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
Thankyou Amelia, looking forward to seeing you take the reigns!

I had the pleasure of working with Joe recently, and what stood out to me most was his genuine, people-first approach.
From the very beginning, his communication was clear, transparent, and consistent. But more than that, he took the time to really understand me - not just my experience on paper, but who I am as a person, what environment I’d thrive in, and what kind of role would truly suit me.
What really sets Joe apart is his ability to build a genuine human connection. It never felt transactional - he was invested in making sure the placement was the right fit for both me and the organisation.
If you’re looking for a recruiter who listens, understands, and cares about long-term fit rather than just filling a role, I’d highly recommend working with him.
Thanks brother, Ro. Namaste 🙏

Working with Joe has been an amazing experience, he really takes the time to get to know you and is a great judge of character. So much so that he can place you in a position that just makes sense for you.
Thanks my man!

From the Get-go, Joe was like a supportive friend who really wanted to see you succeed. We had lengthy conversations to figure out where I would be best placed and it really felt as if there was a lot of attention to detail to ensure I landed the perfect role for me.
Thanks r Chloe!
