"I highly recommend Kaz to anyone who’s looking for architectural roles. Kaz is quick and on the ball with finding suitable roles for her clients. Kaz managed to get me two interviews within a week which resulted me in getting an offer. I started my new role today and Kaz messaged me to wish me luck and made sure everything was ok. Very professional, easy to chat to and communicate with. 10/10"

"Kaz approached me when I was looking for a new architectural assistant position. She paid attention to details, listened to me and guided me whenever I needed help or had any questions. She was really helpful throughout the whole recruiting process."
