Testimonial
 
“The biggest thing for me is that EFM have a really good range of individuals with a range of different experiences. In three different scenarios, I’ve managed to slot in the right type of Financial Director. That, for me, is the biggest benefit of working with EFM and that reflects in the fact that they’ve got a broad range of individuals. 
 
I can pick up the phone to Gary Jesson, or even ask questions to some of the associates who are placed in different businesses to enable me to network with them.  EFM are able to put me in touch with people who can deal with specific issues like R&D tax credits, so we benefit from working with the EFM network. 
 
I have used other similar organisations in the past. All my experience before is that you get given what they want and not what you want and I think that’s the fundamental difference with EFM”.
