Case Study – Hadley Group

Having worked with the Hadley Group for a number of years we have provided finance professionals at all levels within Group Finance and at an Operational level.

The Hadley Group is the UK’s largest independent manufacturer of cold rolled metal profiles with a global reach spanning 5 continents based in Birmingham.

The Hadley Group approached Athwal Resourcing to create a finance team both within Group finance function and at the operational level to add value to the Group. The company has grown from strength to strength.

Here’s what the client had to say:

“I have known Devya for 13 years and she’s always my first port of call when recruiting at any level. Devya’s research into the role ensures good quality CVs are submitted. I would recommend Devya to anybody recruiting finance staff.”

Richard Neale, Group Finance Director – Hadley Group

“I was introduced to Devya indirectly when she was recruiting a finance role for a different division within the Hadley Group. I have since used her services to recruit a Group Financial Accountant and a Management Accountant. I found that the CVs that she provided were all for quality candidates, who were a good fit for the business. What sets Athwal Resourcing apart from many of their competitors is that they take the time to understand the key requirements for a role and the nature of the team and business they are recruiting for. I would wholeheartedly recommend utilising Devya’s services when recruiting for experienced finance staff.”

Tim Roberts, Divisional Financial Controller – Hadley Industries, Building Products Division

Here’s what the candidate had to say:

“During my dealings with Athwal Resourcing, I found Devya Athwal, Principle Director, to be the consummate professional.

Devya contacted me at an extremely problematic period in my personal life, she demonstrated great empathy in understanding my circumstances at the time and yet balanced these emotional aspects with pragmatism, ensuring that my skills set, qualifications and experience were congruent with the organisation that I now enjoy the challenge of working with, in short Devya is adroit at finding a ‘right fit’ solution to recruitment.

Devya managed my expectations and those of my prospective company from day one and applied a measured and consistent approach to interview feedback, thus ensuring as smooth a transition back into full time employment as possible.

I would have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Athwal Resourcing to either candidate or employer, given the fact that Devya is also a qualified ACMA adds further credence to her undoubted talents in business”
