Great news, over 300 Business, Finance & HR professionals have booked onto our latest webinar with John McCarthy, OBE!

Over 300 finance and business professionals have booked onto Astute Recruitment Ltd's latest business webinar with John McCarthy, OBE

Last year, almost to the day, we were delighted to host another of our business breakfast’s with Mr John McCarthy as our guest speaker. We hosted the event at the fabulous grounds of Derbyshire County Cricket in Derby and welcomed over 75 people from local East Midlands businesses.

John spoke passionately about his experiences in the Middle East whilst held hostage. The feedback from our guests was amazing and everyone commented what an inspirational morning it was.

Our MD, Mary Maguire, who organised the event, went on to keep in touch with John through the initial Lockdown in March, and the months that followed. His public engagements as a speaker were postponed due to the Coronavirus restrictions and Lockdown so he was only too glad to work with us again as and when, and put the event ‘online’. He has since conducted several online events for large Government Departments and major corporates.

Scroll forwards, a date was set!

Our team have all been working tirelessly to extend personal invitations to our local business communities.

We want to highlight & support local businesses and retailers in these difficult times for the Highstreet.

So we reached out to our friends at BEAR and are delighted to announce that they will be providing all our attendees with a free cup of coffee and cake AND 20% off all their on-line products before Christmas!

Hopefully, we will all be able to enjoy a coffee and tasty treats at BEAR again soon!

BEAR in Derby offer our webinar attendees free coffee and a cake and 20 online discount off their products

Our reminder emails will have the discount codes for our attendees to use!

So, we are all looking forward to this Thursday afternoon. We have several businesses that have booked their whole Finance and HR departments to enjoy our webinar as a team event, which is great!

If you are interested in attending this online event, please contact Mary Maguire on her email [email protected] and she will be delighted to advise of any extra ticket availability.

Highly recommended! Josh and Sarah have been fantastic at Astute. They've found and placed me in 2 jobs now between them, both really responsive and excellent at keeping you up to speed with things. Very knowledgable about the roles and happy to talk to companies with any queries you have.

Great agency one of the best ones I've worked with! Liz has been a great help and support in helping me towards a new direction in my career life. She is very attentive and keeps me in the loop at all times! She makes the extra effort to work with my preferred requirements for work and even if it isn't completely attainable she meets me in the middle and does as much as she can to help! Also Liz is very funny might I add 😂 and I'm happy that I can now put a face to the name after all these years! Thank you again Liz for all your help and support! 😊

Josh and the Astute team was very swift to help me to find roles that matched my profile. They are really reliable and will help through every step of the recruitment process going out of their way to assist and follow up when needed. Could not find a better recruitment agency!

Fantastic recruitment agency.. Josh was extremely enthusiastic, encouraging and clearly knowledgeable about what was needed from both the employee and the employers point of view. Extremely supportive especially in regards to interview preparation and endeavoured to procure feedback promptly. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Astute in the future to both candidates and recruiting businesses particularly for the right fit for the role!!!

I have worked as a candidate for Astute and they have been excellent. Super friendly service and professional agents keen to fit the right person to the right job. It has been a pleasure dealing with them and I would happily work for them again in the future. Highly recommend this agency.
