Testimonials
I have worked with Hamish and Cathcart Technology as a Recruitment partner since 2022, in my capacity as Talent Acquisition Manager at Wood Mackenzie. I have largely worked with Hamish, and his colleague Andy Weir across both permanent and contract requirements and have built a strong relationship. The team at Cathcart have provided a great service both from a delivery perspective and have also been responsive, available when needed to provide market insights and they engage in a way that suits our business. They have demonstrated a valuable understanding of the Scottish market, understand our requirements and have consistently provided interesting and appropriate talent. Cathcart have supported efforts at various levels including leadership level hiring. I have enjoyed working alongside Hamish, Andy and the team at Cathcart and would highly recommend them for anyone looking to hire tech staff in Scotland.

We recently worked with Cathcart to hire a CTO, and the experience was outstanding. As we had limited experience in recruiting for such a senior role, they were instrumental in refining the entire recruitment process, guiding us every step of the way. The quality of candidates they provided was exceptional - each one met our high standards, and we felt confident we were considering the best talent available. What impressed us most was how they aligned their success with ours - ensuring that a win for our business was equally a win for them, which is unique in the recruitment industry. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would recommend to other businesses as a worthwhile partner.

Cathcart Technology was able to source me high quality candidates for a number of relatively urgent contract hires, for a major Greenfield ERP Programme. Cathcart Technology communication style was well balanced between recognising the hiring team’s workload, and the fast-paced nature of the Programme. Information provided was succinct and deadlines set by our team were met, with a set of strong interview candidates often delivered well in advance of cut off dates. Of the many business and technical roles hired to support the programme, many were placed by Cathcart Technology. I would recommend working with the Cathcart Technology team for resourcing any large-scale Transformational Programmes.

We had a very specific requirement which was to find a contract Business Analyst with Manufacturing, Production, and ERP experience who would be a good fit for the fast-moving culture at Allied Vehicles. The brief was sent out to four different agencies, but only Craig Russell at Cathcart was able to supply candidates of the calibre required. Cathcart Technology managed to find three very strong candidates who we took to interview stage. They made the process seamless for us – their communication and speed of response was excellent throughout. Patricia is now joining us on a permanent capacity, which is testament to the great work that Cathcart Technology did in understanding the needs and culture at Allied and finding the right candidate for our business.

Since Cirrus have engaged with Cathcart, they have shown a real focus on the delivery of software individuals. They are tenacious, and quick to follow up on interview feedback on behalf of her candidates. They also show real care in understanding each of the different software roles and to boot, they don't take anything personally and focus on continuous improvement/how to support us. It is a pleasure working with Cathcart. Their patience is appreciated when dealing with delays in feedback!

Douglas is great, we work with a few agencies, but the attention from Douglas has been outstanding. He works hard to find us the right candidates, and as a result has successfully helped us recruit a few positions in short time scales. An asset to Cathcart, highly recommend.
