Our Testimonials
“I have worked with a wide variety of agencies during my 25 year contracting career, and most recently with Deekay and the team on a contract with the Home Office between 2022 and 2024. They were consistently responsive, supportive and helpful, particularly when additional specialist resources were needed.
What really stood out was their ability to source high quality, experienced and well suited candidates. They did not just tick boxes. They thought outside the box, looking at capability holistically rather than limiting themselves to those with identical sector experience.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Deekay to any contractor seeking a reliable, trustworthy agency, or to any organisation looking for a partner who can genuinely deliver great people.”

“Each time I have worked with Mark and the consultants at Deekay to source labour for Manchester City Council, they have delivered. Early on, we sat down and created a clear specification of our needs and also agreed that CVs should be more informative and tailored to avoid wasting time on unsuitable profiles.
Since then, every candidate submitted has been worthy of serious consideration. Mark consistently goes the extra mile and, along with the team at Deekay, has become a trusted recruitment partner. I would not hesitate to recommend them.”
