Testimonials
“Sally was proactive, dedicated and became a friendly member of the team quickly. The level of commitment was above and beyond my expectation and I forgot she was a contractor! The placement was exactly what we needed to tide us over a recruitment gap, and we ended up extending it to give us some breathing space. The team at The Other Place checked in regularly and offered holiday cover. Really easy to work with and would definitely collaborate again.”"

"It is such a relief having The Other Place as an extension of the UOMA Beauty team. We have used the consultancy services and they have been a dream to work with. Dedicated to supporting our every brand need, Isabel has been integral in supporting us to launch our Coming 2 America make up collection. She has been completely committed to every part of the role. In all honesty The Other Place’s uplifting energy, proactive approach and wealth of experience has been invaluable to me."

"From the start of her career, Rachel Thomson demonstrated quickly a sound understanding of the brand ethos and as such recommended creative activities, some with like-minded partnerships, that not only generated sales growth but also increased customer reach. A real team player with all levels, there was never a task too small or too big, which she implemented efficiently. Well organised and reliable, she was proactive in making things happen. Open to challenges, Rachel worked across functions to optimise the success of each activity. Her dynamic and hands-on approach as well as her positive and flexible attitude were a breath of fresh air in the marketing team."
