Shane recently assisted me in securing a role as a Corporate Administrator in Bermuda. In Autumn 2019, I discussed with Shane that I was keen to explore overseas opportunities with a particular emphasis on company secretarial roles in Bermuda. Within days of our conversation, Shane reverted to me with a summary of the current local jobs market and which employers were actively recruiting. Within a couple of weeks, Shane had scheduled a number of telephonic interviews for me. Before, during, and after the relocation process, Shane was always extremely helpful and responsive to any queries or concerns that I had raised. He was also very proactive in his approach and continually kept me up to speed with any developments as they occurred. If you are considering a move in the company secretarial field, I would strongly recommend Shane. His knowledge of the market, his attention to detail, and his professional but personal approach make Shane an essential point of contact in the search for your next career move.

I had the pleasure of working with Shane and being successfully placed into my ideal role through his hard work and recruitment expertise. He was always very easy to reach and provided updates on my various applications as soon as they became available. His excellent knowledge of the compliance and financial industry meant that we could talk through the available options and determine which one was best for me at the time. I'm still very happy in my current role and would highly recommend Shane to anyone considering a career move.

Shane is a very skilful specialist with an exceptional 'out of the box' thinking attitude, who walks the extra mile in order to find the right person for the job. Sometimes an extra mile means an extra country or even the continent, but Shane's horizons are extremely wide. I highly recommend Shane if you struggle to find the right person, in the right time, in the right place. Shane will make it right for you.

Shane is the best recruiter I have worked with and is one of the best recruiters Dublin has seen. He strikes the perfect balance between an employer and a candidate. Shane really knows what he is doing and has shown that a recruiter can also think in the best interests of a candidate. Shane took a genuine interest in my profile and patiently understood my skills and aspirations to assess the best roles for me, this is what I liked best about him. It has been such a pleasure associating with him. When I become an employer Shane will definitely be the one, I’d rely on to hire.

When Shane approached me to provide him with a note of recommendation, I wanted to make sure that I will not only highlight his deep knowledge of the financial industry and wide network of well-qualified individuals, but also his unique method to identifying people for specific jobs and his individual approach to each candidate. He possesses a deep knowledge of the financial sector and works with a wide network of professionals across a range of job disciplines. I have been consistently impressed with Shane’s attitude since the first day he contacted me. He is not only a recruiter, but also a person who is very engaging, dependable and high in integrity. He understands the complexity of a journey to find a right position by recognising each individual circumstances and knowing that a good match should be a “win-win” proposition for both, employer and employee and on both, professional and personal level. His professional approach is only matched by his ingenuity. I was impressed with Shane’s level of professionalism and his patience in finding the correct match between the candidate and the employer. He sees the bigger picture and for this reason, I know that I can always depend on him to work in the best interest of both, the company as well as the professional seeking new opportunity. I believe this quality is truly rare in the world of professional recruitment and is extremely beneficial in the long-run for all his clients.

Shane Hickey was asked to recruit a Non-Executive Director for an internationally focussed financial services company in Ireland. I found him to be very thorough and professional throughout the process. I would be delighted to work with Shane again.
