Katie addressed all my impressions of the role and was quick to follow up with me before and after each interview round.

I will definitely refer my friends who are considering a career move in commodities to Katie and Kepler Search."

Associate Director - TSF

"Rhys is one of the "human" recruiters out there! He responds faster than you drink your coffee and you will even have a laugh with him. He gets your needs and delivers on his promises. He conducted a Salary & Benefits analysis for us in Japan, probably the hardest market to evaluate and get accurate/real time info. And again, he delivered on time and with a fantastic, well-thought-of analysis we keep going back to.

If you're looking for someone extremely approachable who knows what they're doing, please give Rhys a go. You won't regret it!"
