Penny Townsend

COO at Pracedo / Salesforce ecosystem veteran

“Lee is the go-to guy for all Salesforce recruitment needs. I have worked with Lee over the course of my 10 years in the Salesforce world both as a candidate and a hiring manager and I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Lee is reliable, honest and has a genuine knowledge of the Salesforce market that enables him to fit roles and candidates beyond the often misplaced approach of simply role to certifications metric. Lee tries to impart this approach throughout the Resource on Demand team making them a better business to work with than many others in the marketplace. Moreover, Lee is a genuinely good guy. If you need to hire Salesforce people or want to get a Salesforce role, you should speak to Lee.”

I used Lee to recruit for Consultants, Sr Consultants and Developers with salesforce.com expertise.

Lee was very responsive to feedback on suggestions to improve communication, and was successful in placing several candidates. Resource On Demand’s payment schedule is innovative – would be good if more agencies took same approach! ”

Lee is an immaculate professional in identifying and sourcing right candidates for an opportunity. I have benefited from the services of Lee and highly recommend him for his detailed approach. He is one of the rare breed of recruiters who knows his candidates, what the client is looking for and map it precisely with his resource pool of candidates to recommend the right resource. He is just not a recruiter but a proactive coach in suggesting alternate career paths in CRM.

“Over the course of 10 years, Lee has worked on a number of assignments both as a supplier from and to within the SFDC recruitment market on my behalf. He exhibits a clear, focused and professional approach to recruitment and avoids the typical cliches of recruiters in delivering results. Always willing to spend time to dig deep into requirements, this translates and validates in equal measure the integrity he and the team conform to at Resource On Demand.

“I worked closely with Lee towards the end of 2017. At all times he was polite and courteous. Every promised phone call or update happened as promised. Lee has a genuine desire to the see the best outcome for his candidates, and that can mean also if the candidate is placed by a competitor.

In what can be a fairly murky marketplace, Lee is an honest and helpful guide and would be my first port of call for future recruitment requirements either for me or for my team.”

In finding a new role for me Paul went above and beyond the call of duty, even to the point of trying to forge out a couple of positions at companies that weren’t actively recruiting for those positions. I found him to be honest and tenacious; with a down-to-earth approach to recruitment. I’ll be going to Paul first the next time I’m looking for work.

Karen Wright

I must admit I have a love/hate relationship with recruitment companies, however, always checking in with me, always calling with new opportunities and being always available when I need to speak to him, Lee is an exception to the rule.

I would absolutely support and recommend Lee, and would use his services again in the future over and above any of the big name agencies.

“Resource on Demand are a rare oasis of honesty in the Cloud Computing resourcing space in my experience. I have worked with them both in recruiting resources and when looking for Salesforce.com work myself and have received flawless professionalism and assistance in both capacities. No CVs for similar but irrelevant vacancies and no being put forward for positions that are unsuitable. Their transparent subscription based fees model is refreshing and practical. RoD are my first choice agency.

“During my time working with Theresa as a candidate. I have had a very positive and unique experience overall. Theresa treats you with respect, courtesy, and empathy; not just another name to match against a potential job! Theresa keeps you regularly updated with the job application process in a pro-active manner and really cares about you as a candidate to find you the right role. I must stress this excellent approach is a unique differentiator from other recruiters I have worked with. I therefore wanted to take this opportunity to strongly endorse Theresa and her company offering excellence in recruitment services to candidates and clients.

“Shaylina has been invaluable, recruiting uniquely talented people for expanding teams. Refreshingly honest, hard working and adept at finding just the right candidate. Shaylina has been our trusted go to partner to fill a variety of roles. On a number of occasions we have had time critical hires, where unfilled roles (or worse the wrong person in that role) would cost us dearly. What you get with Shaylina is consistency in the ability to deliver, often under challenging circumstances.

“I cannot recommend Lee and the team at ROD highly enough. I have had the misfortune to deal with recruiters both as a candidate and client and in my experience, Lee is unique in that he genuinely cares about peoples careers and the importance of selecting the right people for the right role. He gets the balance just right between acting for the client and candidate something the usual recruiters don’t seem to be able to do.
Thanks, Lee and Theresa I hope to be coming to you with our recruitment plans very soon.

“I worked with Lee towards the end of 2009 in securing my current role as a Salesforce Consultant. Working with Lee and ROD was a great experience for me and I would recommend ROD to anyone looking to recruit for Salesforce roles within their organisation or to provide Salesforce training.

Lee builds excellent relationships with both recruiters and candidates which persist long beyond the recruitment process and it is this relationship building and understanding of the requirements of the role and the skills and personality of the candidates which allows Lee to place the right people in the right positions. I would recommend ROD to any organisation looking to fill a Salesforce role and to any candidate looking to secure a Salesforce position in a new organisation.

Salesforce / .NET Developer

I had the privilege to work with Shaylina after coming out of an extended break, relocating to the other side of the country and generally being unsure where I should be spending my time and energy to get my career back on track. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better suited – Shaylina made the entire process a joy, and I would recommend anyone that’s wanting to have a nosey at what’s on in the Salesforce market (or just wants to learn from someone who just gets it so right!) to waste no time getting in touch with ROD and Shaylina both.

Thank you much for all of the time spent working with me. Eternally grateful!
