The team at New Town Hanover spent a lot of time understanding the ethos of our business because cultural fit was very important to us, as well as technical competence. NTH’s approach was rigorous and disciplined. We always felt they were focused on achieving a successful outcome in partnership with us.

Glenesk Homes

I would describe New Town Hanover using three words; thorough, polished and challenging. Thorough in the way that they invest time understanding our needs. Challenging in how well they push us as a business to consider what we want from roles and people. Finally, polished in as much as you just know that the air of professionalism they afford us, transcends to the interactions they have with the potential employees of the future.
