Building a 'keep warm'

Some (more) kind words from the team

Rachel Cowell, Head of Recruitment at Softcat

Rachel Cowell

Head of Recruitment

"I've personally worked with the Luna team for nearly 7 years and can confidently say that without them I don’t think we’d have hired the quality and quantity of Softcat sales people we needed to succeed. They work in partnership with us, are honest about their capabilities and won’t be shy in coming forward with new ideas that could help our recruiting strategy. It’s not just about filling heads, but adding real value and they represent our brand just as I would expect someone working directly at Softcat to!"

"Working with the guys over at Luna for the past decade has genuinely been a pleasure, and for me, has represented the definition of true partnership. The relationship we've had with the guys has ultimately become the blueprint for third party relationships across our entire recruitment function. They have consistently demonstrated their ability to add value and as a result, don’t feel like your typical agency partner, but instead a valued and impactful extension of our internal team."
