Our impact in their words

  

"I had the pleasure of Climate17 representing me recently. As well as being passionate and knowledgeable about the renewables industry, I found them to be extremely professional and responsive, providing valuable support and keeping me informed throughout the entire process – nothing was too much trouble! I would highly recommend their skills."

"They were our top recruiter in terms of both quality and volume. The team at Climate17 were always so receptive to our challenges and accommodated our recruitment process, timeframes and requests. They were incredibly supportive when we were working on improving the diversity and inclusivity in our hiring – from anonymising CVs, providing gender-neutral bios, to reaching out to new networks."

Climate 17 have demonstrated good industry knowledge, provide market feedback and communicate where they are with a position. They have also helped us to develop our employer value proposition and to positioning our business as an employer of choice."
