4. “We have worked with IQ A&T for a number of years now. IQAT have always taken the
time to really understand our requirements so that we quickly reach a point where we
are receiving high quality candidates. Our company values are vitally important to us and
finding individuals who display those values is a skill in itself that goes beyond putting
forward a competent looking CV. We have recruited some great people over the last couple
of years through IQ A&T as they consistently hit the mark with candidates.”
Phil Reed, QA Manager, Motability Operations
“I have worked with IQ Assurance & Testing for a number of years for both contract and
permanent recruitment, specifically within the Testing arena. The quality of candidate
delivered by IQ Assurance & Testing is extremely impressive, and their selection process is
thorough – ensuring that every candidate’s experience is of a good, relevant level. I have
worked with, and know of, many businesses that use IQ Assurance & Testing, and would
highly recommend them as a recruitment agency. They are the first agency I contact for
my Testing resource requirements.”
Avril Hardy, Test Manager, Equiniti Paymaster (Part of the Equiniti Group)
JHC delivers a market-leading range of financial software, consultancy and training
services and we have been working together since 2012. During the first two years of
working with us, our consultants placed more than 10 permanent Testers (Manual and
Automation) across their London, Birmingham and Newcastle offices. When JHC were in
the process of expanding their Birmingham based Test function, they immediately sought
our support and we filled multiple Test Analyst roles within just one month. We work as a
truly consultative recruitment partner to JHC who trust in our ability to connect them with
the top QA & Testing professionals in the market.
