What people say about us
Working with Anastasia has been the most incredibly easy & seamless recruitment experience that I have had to date.
Anastasia has an impeccable skill in not only understanding a candidates background and their technical expertise but really understands a candidates personality traits to ensure that the partnership between an EA & the potential Executive will be a success.
Post placement, Anastasia has gone out of her way to consistently check in on me both personally and on my progress in the role. She shows that she truly cares about her candidates and their success and continues to build a relationship that is invaluable.
I highly recommend Altitude EA. Altitude EA is the top of the pyramid in successfully partnering EA's and Executives!
I cannot recommend Altitude EA highly enough. I found Anastasia very efficient in explaining what was on offer with regards to the role, Anastasia not only took the time to get to know me and my expectations/experience but was able to really articulate the potential employer's expectations and fit.
From the beginning to the end she was invested in placing me in the right role and ensuring I was kept updated and knowledgeable going into my interviews.
I am now in a role I love with amazing people, and for that, I can’t thank Altitude EA enough.
Working with Anastasia at Altitude EA has been a very pleasant experience. A truly dedicated consultant, who demonstrated professionalism, commitment and excellent service.
The personal touch I received was something that I would not expect from most recruitment consultants, but she has it all. She sounded equally excited when I was offered the job, not so much that she has closed the deal, but more so that she felt she had found a good match for both the organisation and a role that suited my career goals, personality and style of working.
I would highly recommend Anastasia to other executive assistants and HR Managers recruiting for their CEO’s.
I have been dealing with Altitude-EA and Anastasia Kelly for some time now; not only did she help place me in my current role but she also helped with finding my replacement in my previous role which was a huge weight from my shoulders. I was very conscious that my previous CEO needed a very specific type of person in the role I was vacating and I wanted to ensure he was well looked after. Anastasia nailed the brief and found the perfect replacement. I could not have asked for a better experience.
Anastasia knows people. She is warm and friendly but always the consummate professional. She listens to your needs and takes into consideration the personality traits and skills needed for a particular role, whilst taking the time to delve into people and their backgrounds to ensure that not only are they the right fit for the role being filled, but the right fit for the executive and the company as a whole.
I highly recommend Altitude-EA to anyone looking for a top tier EA to join their organisation and bring value to their executive team.
Couldn’t have had a better recruitment experience!
Anastasia placed me into the perfect role within 3 days. She was very thorough to ensure the position was the right fit.
I highly recommend Anastasia and the team.
