    As part of our growth strategy it was essential for Clearsprings Support Services to partner with a professional and agile business to work alongside us and execute our acquisition plan. Following a robust selection process it was clear that Novo had the right credentials and through Dale exhibited a level of competence and understanding which made my decision to engage with Novo very easy.  The project managed by Novo and the performance from day one underpinned the selection of partner. Throughout I received a high level of analysis, good and timely communication and positive feedback from acquisition targets. As a result of Novo’s commitment and hard work we have acquired 5 very good businesses; a great team effort.  We plan to embark on a third round of acquisitions next year and will have no hesitation in choosing Novo as a partner.   Managing Director, Clearsprings Support Services Ltd

When delays occurred in the process, they always provided open and honest dialogue. Above all, Novo was excellent at building rapport and had a genuinely warm personality in both face to face and phone conversations. A great service!” Sales & Marketing Director

    “CACI has asked Novo to help us with a number of senior level appointments. Each role required individuals with very specific skills and experience and we felt that we would be unable to fill the positions using alternative methods such as advertising. We have been consistently pleased with the work Novo has done on our behalf. They provide a thorough and professional service at all stages of the recruitment process, from creating the job specification through to the final discussions with the selected candidate. They communicate regularly and take the time to really understand our business and the specific requirements for each role.  Novo has always been able to fulfil the briefs we have given them and we have been impressed by the candidates put forward for interview. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services to other businesses.”   Vice-President Consumer Marketing, CACI
