Climbing the ladder – Merlo UK

With the right attitude and a great work ethic – anything is possible! 10 years ago a young man, Joe Rogers, came to me looking for a job.  He had just finished his A-levels and did not know where to go next.  He was hoping for the summer off and lay on the beach with his

Chris - Ferndown
“We have been working with Dovetail Recruitment since May 2014 and always find Liz and her team to be friendly, helpful and professional. Unlike other recruitment agencies, they have taken the time to understand our business and specific needs. As a result, the candidates that are put forward by Dovetail are by far more relevant to the role and are of high standard. Dovetail have already successfully filled vacancies for us in administration, HR, marketing, accounting and yard operations and we look forward to continuing to build on our working relationship.”

They go above and beyond to find you the perfect candidate and I am always very impressed with their level of service and professionalism. Look no further if you’re looking for a recruitment agency that will find you the right staff.”
Head of Business Development
“We are a very busy company and I trust Liz’s judgement in finding the right calibre candidates to enable us to move our business forward and to do it swiftly and efficiently.”
Operations Manager
Thank you so much for all your help.  I had not heard of yourselves until my daughter, Hannah put me in touch with you and I can honestly say my experience with you has been amazing. I am very grateful to you for being so kind and helpful and for all the guidance you have given to me.  It has been a real pleasure dealing with you and being offered a position so promptly is fantastic.

I’m truly grateful for the support and guidance given to me throughout my job hunting process. Their knowledge and experience has proved invaluable and as an added bonus their pleasant manner and highly personable demeanour has made them a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!
Amy - Bournemouth
“I would highly recommend Dovetail to my friends and family. They took time to find out about my requirements and only suggested positions available on this basis. To have a recruitment consultant that actually listens is very rare in my experience! I was very impressed with their professional, friendly efficient manner. Thank you again for all of your time and help, the customer service and genuine interest in my job search was outstanding.”
Kirsty - Bournemouth
“I have received an excellent service from start to finish from Liz of Dovetail Recruitment. The whole process was seamless… they kept me well informed and helped me thorough each stage of my interview. Within one week I had two interviews, was offered the job and handed in my notice! I would 100% recommend Dovetail Recruitment to anyone who is looking to change career or take a dive off the deep end – the staff are friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable and very experienced and I can’t thank them enough for all their support. I was very apprehensive to leave the Local Authority after five years, but with their encouragement and resources they have found me the perfect role and I can… Read more
Cherisse - Poole
“Incredibly helpful, friendly and lovely staff, super involved with every step including face to face coaching before the interview which helped wonders. Can’t recommend highly enough. “
Elisha - Candidate
“I have used the services of Dovetail Recruitment many times. I have always been very impressed with the level of service and support they have given me and provided my clients. The calibre of candidates they sent through were excellent with all cv’s having the relevant experience and qualifications I was looking for. Happy to recommended them to my clients & contacts as they really do “Find the perfect fit”
Financial Controller
“Fantastic service from Liz and the team at Dovetail – really helped me build my confidence for the job interview and get the job I really wanted.”
Sally - Bournemouth
“We’ve worked with Dovetail on a recent recruitment drive. We successfully appointed two excellent sales candidates who have proved to be a great fit for our organisation. As a fast-growing business, it is great to be able to work with an agency who really understands our business and culture.”
Head of Data Transfer
“The attention given at all levels including gaining an understanding of my business and the initial selection and offering of potential candidates stands above all other agencies I have dealt with.”
Sales Director
“I have been thoroughly impressed with the overall service provided by Dovetail. Tiffany took the time to really understand our business and culture and has only ever provided candidates that meet our needs exactly. Sometimes too well and we have been spoilt for choice, having to recruit two people as they were both too good to let go. I can highly recommend Dovetail, as having used large National agencies in the past and believing their service and networks were superior to a local agency, I have been totally converted and know this is not the case. Dovetail are now my first port of call.”
Head of Finance
“Dovetail has been amazing helping me find work in the Bournemouth area. They are driven to find the best role for candidates, with their great relationships with local businesses and knowledge of the area I would highly recommend this agency. The people are friendly, organised and have good communication, always following up on progress and results. Tiffany and Samantha both have worked above and beyond to secure my new role, couldn’t thank them enough.”
Lewis - Bournemouth
“I would never have believed that I could trust a company to get the right calibre of staff that I knew I needed. Liz and the team have gone on to fill a further two vacancies for us. I would recommend Dovetail Recruitment to anyone who wants good staff.”
Finance Director
“I’ve been delighted with the service from Tiffany, she only sends us quality candidates and manages the recruitment process very professionally.”
Chartered Financial Planner
Dovetail has been very supportive with the search of my new role! They have been very responsive and helpful at all stages of the process. Highly recommend working with Dovetail. Big thank you to Francesca!
Jenny - Bournemouth

“I cannot begin to thank the wonderful ladies at dovetail enough! Especially Suzie! Not only did they go above and beyond to help me find a job they also were friends to me when I was struggling! I can not recommend them enough for all of their support and advice. I am just about to start my new role and it is all down to them! Thank you so much!!! “

Holly - Bournemouth
“Dovetail Recruitment have always provided us with a friendly and very professional service. They worked at getting a great understanding of the business needs and our company culture. From this, they have provided candidates that have been a good “fit” for our business and made our recruitment process painless and cost-effective.”
Director
Dovetail are friendly and professional – Suzi is brilliant and my go-to for marketing roles in this area. 
Jo - Bournemouth
“Tiffany has been absolutely fantastic. I wasn’t happy in my role and I needed a change. Recruiters always call you and try to sell you a role on more money with the same skill set- because that will benefit them commission wise. I didn’t feel I was being listened to, as to what I wanted as my situation was very unique with relocating and changing completely. Tiffany listened, understood and put two brilliant roles in front of me, both which I had an interview for. She kept in touch with me and genuinely seemed interested in who I am as an individual and not a number she can place to make her monthly target. I’ve now relocated and am a month into a role I adore. For the first time in a lon… Read more
Charlotte - Poole
I am very happy to give Dovetail Recruitment a full 5 star review. I have used them over the past few years to recruit for my team. They pre-screen candidates and I can be confident the CVs they pass over to me are relevant… Many of their candidates have been successful in the recruitment process and have gone on to become key contributors in the business. The team at Dovetail are great to work with. They listen and get to know your business and what you need, and then use all the information they have to find good candidate matches. I thoroughly recommend their personalised service.
Head of UK Retail
Dovetail Recruitment is brilliantly professional and efficient. Their personal and friendly service has been exemplary in helping me seek future employment and presented me with some excellent opportunities. They provide fantastic support along the whole process. I would highly recommend Dovetail to anyone seeking a professional career.
David Q - Candidate
Dovetail Recruitment were totally professional and supportive from the very first phone call. It was a pleasure to meet them in person, they listened carefully to everything I said and gave me the confidence and advice I needed to move forward. I will always recommend Dovetail as a first class recruitment agency.
Sarah - Bournemouth
“We love working with Dovetail,  as we can trust them to follow process and deal with hiring manager directly, giving us the time to work on other urgent requirements. We have had great success with candidates that Dovetail has provided and can rely them to understand both the hiring manager’s and the business’ needs when sourcing. They are very well respected for their skills and attitude within the business and will always be our first call for any difficult vacancies!”
Internal Recruiter
“I couldn’t recommend Dovetail Recruitment enough! I’ve had experience with lots of agencies, but Dovetail are by far the best! They go above and beyond your expectations to help you find the right job. I worked directly with Samantha, and she was great, checking up on me through every step of the process. I highly recommend.”
Mary Louise - Poole
Excellent service! I have my dream job now and cannot wait to start! Thank you so much!
